yeah, but...
depending on the dsl service you have (base level dsl is not much faster)
although only a few things are slower than dsl, gprs and 3G are a couple of them
along with clearwire, which is basically glorified cell net


as long as you know what you are getting, you wont be dissapointed :D

dsl is faster but the long cord always gets snagged on a mailbox
or run over by oncoming traffic when I go on the road with it and
 that wire is expensive to replace all the time
