DSL can still be congested higher up in the infrastructure, so it's not a "dedicated link" to the internet either. | |

I was told by them, when I asked a similar question regarding congestion, they said that each customer actually is given a dedicated line thereby facilitating greater speed within the home based to a similar cable service that is not dedicated. | |
