Most likely, you're on the very edge of the DSL service area, too far from the phone company's local DSL base station to get good speeds.  I'm guessing that you've called the DSL company about the problem aready.  If DSL coverage isn't good in your neighborhood, try your Cable TV company, they probably sell high speed, and it'll have less distance limits.

If you can get satellite internet and install a wireless router, that would work.  Without a phone line, you can't get DSL.

Do you receive television cable through Comcast?  I find internet access through cable is faster than DSL.  However, DSL is cheaper than cable.  Check the AT&T and Comcast websites to see if they provide service to your area.  You'll have to enter your telephone number for AT&T and your address for Comcast.

Get DSL it is just as fast and it uses a phone line, and plus no one has to come to your house to hook it up.  It also costs less than cable internet.

It will depend on your service area and which regional Bell company serves you. The most inexpensive offer for high speed can be free: many cities are partnering with wireless companies to provide Internet access. I guess you can check with your City government to determine if anything is being planned or already in place.\n\nDSL from your local phone company is usually the cheapest offering and provides a good balance between speed and cost (up to 1.5mbps downloads for about $20-25/month).\n\nCable usually offers the fastest downloads (up to 3mbps) but is usually the most expensive at $40-50/month. They do offer some introductory pricing specials.

DSL is only provided by your local phone company - since the signal  travels over their wires.\n\nTime Warner (Road Runner) has always served us well, but it is expensive.\n\nDo you have ClearWire available there yet? Check out their site.

Cable Internet service IS a type of 'broadband'.\n\nContact your Cable provider for Internet service.\n\nThere are MANY areas of the country, and the cities around where I live that cannot receive DSL due to the distance from a phone exchange.  Some phone companies are starting to put 'repeating' stations up in order to extend their DSL coverage area.\n\nthe cable service is FAR better in my area.

Some phone companies will let you have DSL without phone service, ask them! Same for cable providers. For A while I used Comcast for phone and internet but not for TV for which I used a dish. It can not hurt to ask.

Hi speed internet is mostly dependent on the internet connection itself but a speedy computer does not hurt. Hi speed access comes in many forms. DSL requires that you have phone service available and how well or if it work at all is dependent on the amount of cable feet you are from the central office of the telephone company. Cable access overcomes many of the distance issues but as stated above some companies require you get their cable tv service as well (comcast did not). But some cable services just plain suck, such as adelphia in yuma arizona. Other possibilities that you can consider are microwave type internet connection, A T1 or fractional T1 supplied by your telephone company to your isp provider, Cellular broadband (only works well in major metro areas), or a Satellite dish based service. These can all become quite pricey.
