This is fundamentally wrong. By the logic used here, all bandwidth is "shared", unless you have a direct line to the server you're accessing. A cable modem is the same as a dedicated line. Of course it's shared at the router or at the ISP backbone, but the cable companies have such large backbones that it's effectively dedicated. DSL is shared by definition; a DSLAM is a physical multiplexor that shares by design; DSL is oversold by a factor of 30 or so. The actual bandwidth that is dedicated is undefined; providers will oversell at different levels.
Cable is vastly superior to DSL for the same advertised bandwidth. |
