Cable all the way. Faster, shorter waiting for installation, cheaper and cable companies are less likely to bankroupt

What exactly do you mean that you have cable with 56k? Is your cable modem only 56k up or down? Or do you mean that you have a cable modem AND a 56k phone modem?

Anyway, I would suggest cable if it is avaliable. I upgraded to cable from a 56k phone modem and Renegade became a whole new game. No more warping around and finding yourself in the middle of a tiberium field. As for DSL, I looked into it in my area and it was more expensive than cable and was a higher price as well.

Overall I have been very happy with Cable and I would recomend that you check to see what company(ies) have in in your area.

I find cable very useful to me in a renegade game, except for the fact that my cable modem can only host a 4 play game ( although the problem for that is im sharing my connection,rouder.)

You can get a hybrid cable connection which is cable downstream and dialup for upstream.

Depends, erm my cable was 3mbps/400up, capped down to 1500/200.
So i got adsl, well this is about as close as you get to T1 for 45$, 3000/850-1400+ depending on day time. I also live 10miles away from isp so...Call around for different isps and find their caps. But this is only if you plan to host...
