can a dsl modem get you free cable? Is it possible ?
 
Not unless someone has an offer with "Get DSL, get free cable with it!". I hardly think so.
 
someone needs to learn the topology of dsl and cable.... to answer your question, No
 
read up on the subject as they are too very different technologies:blink:
 
Uh, there were ways... sort of

Several years ago in San Jose, Pacbell ran fiber telephone lines through a number of neighborhoods. They then offered people TV, phone, and internet through the lines. Worked great. One of my friends was a tester. He had super bandwidth, tons of TV channels, and his phone line all coming in via one line.

Technically, I suppose it's not really considered DSL, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

The project was abandoned because PacBell wanted SJ to pay for the fiber installation and they said no.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
