Am I too far away from the CO's DSLAM?

Question

I am thinking about purchasing Qwest DSL in Idaho. I know I live 7Km from the DSLAM, I was wondering if it was really worth it to get Qwest DSL because of my distance? I heard they use RADSL but I dont know if that matters or not. I want to get the 1.5 meg connection, but can I realistically expect 1.5? What Should I do?

Answer 1

At 7kM (about 22,000 feet), you will not likely get more than about 128kb with DSL (if it works at all).
