ADSL2+ isn't too bad. For the longest time, it was the best that we had here unless you went with cable, and even then it often times outperformed cable. The problem with cable here is that it is inconsistent: connections to the popular speedtest sites are given priority status, and speeds during the weekend SUCK... That's what happens when your connection is shared on a giant friggin' loop with other leeches.

Now that we have 40mbit and 100mbit symmetric up/down VDSL2 connections, the cable provider is starting to feel the heat.
