If you have electricity for a base station and charging phones, you also have for pbx and copper wire.
- icebraining 12y agoWorthy Care to say why? If you have electricity for a base station and charging phones, you also have for pbx and copper wire. I pointed that out not because there wouldn't be electricity to run the DSL system, but to show how difficult it has been to run electricity supply cables. DSL would have the same problems. And it would be obsolete the day it got installed. I just don't see ADSL being anything than a more expensive and less flexible alternative to mobile Internet for their current situation.
