Only if you have been in the deepest valley, can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain.
What is the diffrence betwteen Broad band, DSL, and what other if any high speed services, I been told some are more better that others, Broad band and DSL seems same to me when comes to if set at same speeds service. thenthere is wi fi. which I hear is slower then Both DSL and broadband is that true?

Sharing my wealth and my knowledge ;)
I have DSL and am very satisfied. Cable claims to be faster, but I couldn't see needing any more speed, it's very fast.

Broadband refers to a signaling method that includes or handles a relatively wide range (or band) of frequencies, which may be divided into channels or frequency bins. Broadband is always a relative term, understood according to its context. The wider the bandwith , the greater the information-carrying capacity. In radio, for example, a very narrow-band signal will carry Morse code; a broader band will carry speech; a still broader band is required to carry music without losing the higher audio frequencies required for realistic sound reproduction . A television antenna described as "normal" may be capable of receiving a certain range of channels; one described as "broadband" will receive more channels. In data communications an analogue modem will transmit a bandwidth of 56 kilobits per seconds (kbit/s) over a telephone line; over the same telephone line a bandwidth of several megabits per second can be handled by ADSL, which is described as broadband (relative to a modem over a telephone line, although much less than can be achieved over a fibre optic circuit). The various forms of digital subscriber line (DSL) services are broadband in the sense that digital information is sent over a high-bandwidth channel (located above the baseband voice channel on a single pair of wires). A baseband transmission sends one type of signal using a medium's full bandwidth, as in 100BASE-T Ethernet. Ethernet, however, is the common interface to broadband modems such as DSL data links, and has a high data rate itself, so is sometimes referred to as broadband. Ethernet provided over cable modem is a common alternative to DSL. IPTV is broadband video. hs
Broadband can be classified broadly into two types of connections. One is wired connection and the other is wireless connection. DSL, Cable and Fibre-optic connections are called wired internet connections. Satelite, Wireless broadband (Wi-Fi) and mobile broadband comes under wireless internet connections.

DSL originally stood for digital subscriber loop, but as of 2009[update] the term digital subscriber line has been widely adopted as a more marketing-friendly term for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL), the most popular version of consumer-ready DSL. DSL can be used at the same time and on the same telephone line with regular telephone, as it uses high frequency bands, while regular telephone uses low frequency.
The download speed of consumer DSL services typically ranges from 384 kilobits per second (kbps) to 20 megabits per second (Mbps), depending on DSL technology, line conditions and service-level implementation. Typically, upload speed is lower than download speed for ADSL and equal to download speed for the rarer Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL).For more information http://windows7.iyogi.net/
