DSL w/o Phone Jack in room

Yeah and probably still come out cheaper than paying someone to wire that length. Also you can move your computer wherever you want without the limitations of a wire.

but may i add that in certain parts of the house signal may sometimes suck balls?

Its really not that bad. Unless your going to put it more than 20+ yards.

I have a computer like 35 yards away from mine and it has excellent signal. And theres like 5 walls between here and there.

Ty for the tips. As I might switch to DSL, I might switch to wireless but the hassle to buy a adapter doesn't benefit for me. As if I switch to dsl, I might be saving about $15 per month for speeds a little lower but I am a time consumer so it's still high speed internet. Problem is since I don't have a phone jack in the room for the PC, setting it up to use wireless might take some time to use it. As wireless is a little slower caused by interference, I might make the decision in the near future.

Thank you all. I will have to compare the benefits.

You don't have to have the computer near the phone jack with a router. Thats the beauty of it. You can set up your modem and router in a completely different room.

The router I have right now is not connected to a computer. It is only connected to a modem downstairs, and its wasn't hard to setup, and all the internet I get is from that router. Sbc Dsl is a very decent Dsl for relatively cheap price. Starting from around $14. Upgradeable too. I have the $24 one with 2500 kbs.

Sorry for reviving, but I have another question.

As I last checked, I am willing to make a switch from Comcast to Qwest DSL because I heard reports about Comcast up to no good (BitTorrent + limiting bandwidth.

I researched the speeds. Comcast has 6.0 for $45 and Qwest has 1.5 Mps for $30.

Is it worth to downgrade? But Qwest doesn't cheat customers on what there getting :-)

PS on the Phone Jack: I might try the wireless thing but worried about people around my area stealing my connection

Its all a matter of personal preference. Cable is good but bandwidth is limited by your neighbors use. And you can put a password on your router so others cannot connect to it.
