That they exist, and that ethernet is baseband, but DSL and Cable aren't

With modern switching systems, it's pretty much digital almost the
whole way ;) It just gets flipped around a few times on the way.
Does it really matter anyways? Your DSL is your DSL, after all.
Personally, I think I'm ditching DSL and going back to Comcast, as it

No, it's not a lie, per say. A DSL modem demodulates an analog signal

No, it's not a lie, per say. A DSL modem demodulates an analog signal
from the wire into digital information. It also takes digital
