What is better for webhosting CABLE or ASDL
I am thinking about switching from CABLE ( 128 / 96kb ) to ASDL ( 192 / 64 Kb ). Could anybody tell me if this is a good decision ?
I am running webhosting services for small businesses - 22 domains/companies. And while dns, www and ftp is ok, most of people have problems with emails (Mailenable). I do not know if it is
1. the speed,
2. the mail server
3. or the type of connectivity i am using.
What do you think ?

Here is the main differances between the two:
DSL is stable meaning that if your downloading at 37k it will stay at that level no matter how many ppl are online
Cable flucuates depeding on how many ppl are online at any given time. So one minute you can be at 37k the next 2k back to 37k.
Cable outperforms dsl in bandwidth overall but lacks the stability that DSL has. You can think that with dsl, you have your own private pipeline and with cable you share that pipeline.
On another note you should definatly look at higher bandwidth considerations for your webhosting. 64K upload is not alot to allow your customers. You should look at DSL packages of 768/768 which roughly run around $60 a month

Further I do not think there is much difference between cable / adsl for you that is (technically it's like day and night).
In this case u need ur upstream cuz of the mail people. So I think it might be best to keep the cable.
Or find a better conenction with more speed (up and down).
Good luck
