DSL is highly susceptible to issues with the physical connection. Somewhere in your neighborhood or apartment building is a stack of splitters and you can greatly improve your service if you can convince a technician to put your connection at the top. Customers at the bottom just have chronic signal noise and speed issues as their everyday experience and it isn't a solvable problem.
- milankragujevic 5y agoI'm sorry, what?! xDSL does not have splitters, except the only one in your household that splits the POTS frequencies for the phone and the rest is passed off to the modem. And of course your physical twisted pair wire goes from your modem to the port on the DSLAM in the central office. This is not like cable or xPON, the last mile twisted pair is yours alone.
