What is a cable modem / high speed cable ?
A cable modem, provides high-speed Internet access through a cable television network. Cable modems are typically external devices placed next to your computer. Cable modems like DSL use an unused part of the bandwidth, a part not use to send you sound and pictures. Cable modem speed can be quicker than a T1 and are sometimes the only choice for a hight speed connection when you don’t qualify for DSL. Cable modems are typically asymmetric, meaning that download speeds are faster than upload speeds.
