Title: Speed Up Your Cable or DSL Service by Tweaking These Settings
1Speed up your cable or DSL service by tweaking
these settings
2Introduction -
- This report1 analyzes the current and emerging gen
eration of mobile wireless technologies and
compares those technologies to wireline technologi
es such as fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP), cable
broadband, and copper DSL across a range
of technical parameters, including
reliability, resilience, scalability, capacity, a
nd latency. The report also evaluates wireless car
riers mobile pricing and usage structuresinclud
ing so-called unlimited data plansbecause those
policies play a significant role in whether cons
umers can substitute mobile for wireline service.
- The report concludes that, for both technical and
business reasons, wireless technologies are not
now, and will not be in the near to medium future,
adequate alternatives or substitutes for
wireline broadband.
3Technology limitations modern wireline broadband
services are superior to wireless services in
terms of capacity, reliability, and scalability. F
igure 1 illustrates a range of wireline and wirele
ss technologies, both existing and under developm
ent, and provides the speed range in which the
technologies operate. Business and usage policy
limitations the business policies imposed by mobi
le companies further impact the usability of mobi
le service as a primary or sole source of broadban
d. Mobile pricing and usage limits make mobile se
rvice a poor substitute for wireline broadband ser
vices.

5The sections below describe the state of the art i
n wired and mobile wireless technologies. They
present an analysis of the technologies current c
apabilities and limitations, then describe their
potential future states. 2.1 Fiber-to-the-premis
es offers the highest speeds and other technical
advantages Fiber is the most advanced form of wir
eline communications infrastructure. It has
been incorporated into middle-mile and backhaul
connections the lines that are used to aggregate
data traffic and provide high-capacity transport
between cities and across continentssince the
1980s.Almost all commercial broadbandproviders us
e fiber in portions of their networks, then connec
t their end users over wireless, coaxial, or copp
er lines.
State-of-the-art wired and wireless technologies
have widely different capacities and limitations -

9Broadband cable service is a robust
wireline broadband technology, though not as
capable as FTTP
- Cable broadband technology is currently the primar
y means of providing broadband services to
homes and small and medium-sized businesses in urb
an, suburban, and small-town areas in the
united states. Because of its relative ubiquity in
non-rural areas and its inherently greater
capacity than commercial wireless service and copp
er telephone lines , broadband cable networks will
continue as a major broadband communications tec
hnology for most homes and businesses for the fore
seeable future.
