Answer 2

I am sitting here in the Third World part of rural Mexico, using my DSL, and there is only one phone line. I am really enjoying DSL. We have some wild orchids in our trees, and I was able to identify them via DSL. (Laelia anceps and laelia anceps alba).

Also, a cousin showed me a flower that looked like a starfish with five points, and asked what kind of cactus it was. Turns out it isn't a cactus, but a plant from South Africa. A neighbor woman found a small piece of what she thought was a cactus in the street, and planted it. Turns out it's either stapelia grandiflora or stapelia gigantea, I sure can't tell them apart. There was extreme surprise when I showed them it was a South African plant.

Anyway, DSL is really neat, and the part I like best is we can chat on the phone at the same time.

Answer 3

No, if DSL is available in your area, your existing phone line can support DSL broadband data and voice data simultaneously. This means that over a single phone line, you can have bi-directional data flow via DSL and voice, so you can surf the net AND talk on the phone on a single phone line.

Hope this helps!
