Broadband - Telephone or cable?

IIMII · 2009-04-01 15:20:10

Been reading through various threads here but can't find a (relatively) definitive answer. Which is better in terms of speed, reliability and price? Thinking higher range offerings here..

The cable tends to have decent upload speeds, compared to DSL offeriings.

Does that matter to you?

from my knowledge smart telecom seem to be near the top of everyones list, as they provide no cap, decent speed broadband. but their only i certain areas.

but if upload is important to you, UPC may be the way to go.

also will the bundle deals be any good to you? UPC and Magnet can throw in TV stations, and IP phones etc?
