Is there an advantage to using a cable modem connection instead of a telephone modem?
Since the cable modem connects to the Internet using the coaxial cable and fiber optic systems of the cable TV system, it’s more cost effective than telephone connections to the Internet. It allows subscribers to stay online all the time – no more “dropped” connections. And it’s much faster. Your telephone line is freed up for normal voice communications.
