DSL Providers are companies and agencies that offer DSL technology, bringing high bandwidth information to businesses and homes through copper telephone lines. To receive a DSL service, a local telephone service through the incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC) is necessary. There are several DSL providers offering high-speed Internet connections. Some of the major DSL providers include Pacific Bell, SNET, Verizon, Qwest, SBC, Ameritech, Southwestern Bell and Bell South.
DSL service providers offer various packages, tailor made for consumer needs.
The main differences in these packages include speed and the direction that the data is delivered.

FCC Ruling on DSL Re-Monopolizes Phone Networks Says California ISPs
SACRAMENTO, CA (ContentDesk) August 8, 2005 -- The California ISP Association (CISPA), the largest state association of Internet service providers, reacted today to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission's ruling today that high-speed DSL Internet lines should be classified as an "information service" instead of a telecommunications service. The ruling would allow large phone companies to close their DSL networks and exclude independent ISP's from the DSL market. The result is that most ISPs would be eliminated from the broadband market."The FCC's version of what it calls "deregulation" is simply just a re-monopolization of a network that has been publicly regulated and paid for by rate payers for more than 100 years.

WiMAX Facades Unsullied Challenge to Broadband and DSL
In the US a technology known as WiMAX is being conceptualized that will make high-speed wireless Internet services available in areas much larger than a typical Wi-fi coffee bar. These wireless hotspots would match the size of Philadelphia or a rural community in the American heartland.
WiMAX would be developed to spread Internet facilities across cities, using radio networks with much wider ranges than Wi-fi, a system available in coffee shops. However, it is questionable how far this service would be commercially viable.
Once WiMAX is in force, some broadband operators already have plans to use it as a way to expand their networks, and city administrators are ready to offer broadband services cheap in public places such as parks or low-income housing areas.
WiMAX which should be capable of delivering 50 megabits to 100 megabits per second is therefore much superior to DSL and cable. Analysts therefore believe...
