They are? DSL certainly isn't (the baseband there is the audio range, which DSL specifically avoids) and, while I don't know the cable-TV transport well enough to be sure, what little I've heard indicates that it's not baseband either.... Unless you're talking about the customer-facing interface of the CPE, usually 10baseT or 100baseTX, which is indeed baseband but isn't really very interesting - it's the provider<->customer last-mile that's actually of interest. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
