From RR to ADSL - Better?

[Kitros]

I have Road Runner, but soon they will start to charge me $39.95 for it. Local ADSL provides @ same price - 768 dl, 3xx upload. Good or no? should I change?

I think it is a matter of cost, who is cheaper? I have Ameritech ADSL 768/128 and a buddy of mine has Road Runner. Both of us see download speeds in the neighborhood of 70-85Kb/s and both have been reliable.

What would it cost you to switch to ADSL? Is there a setup cost? I don't know about Road Runner, but my cable ISP (optimum online) is AWESOME, and I was getting speeds that were a LOT faster than a friends' ADSL line, and he had a lot of problems with his ADSL line going down...

so you tell us what you could go to ADSL 768/384 for the same price...what are you getting from the cable?...what makes you think about going through the hassle of changing...are you unhappy with it?....

Road Runner has the possibility of getting higher speed when traffic is low.
