Initially when DSL appeared as a new way of transmitting information over the internet it was referred to as "digital subscriber loop". However today it is more commonly referred to as "digital subscriber line" which made it much more market friendly and certainly more easier for the layman to understand what it did. Today many DSL service providers in Houston and other cities, towns and states across America now offer homeowners ADSL.

But when it comes to looking for the right service provider for your DSL system what should you be considering. In this article we will take a look at some of the factors you need to consider to ensure that you get the best system possible.

Look for those DSL service providers who download speeds range from 256 to 24,000 kilobits per second (kbit/s). But just what range of speeds they have will depend on how technologically advance the systems they themselves are using.

In order to run DSL in your home you will need the following pieces of equipment which the service provider should give to you once you sign up to their service. They should provide you with a transceiver which then connects to their services and allows you to then gain access to the internet. It is the transceiver, which is more commonly referred to as a modem will connect you to the DSL line.

Often if you have more than one PC in your home that you wish to connect to a DSL line then you will be provided with a router so that you are able to connect all the PC's via cables to the same DSL line. So this means then you do not need to have several DSL lines running in to your home in order for all PC's to connect to the internet.

However you may find that when several of you are using the internet at the same time and someone chooses to do some downloading this can actually cause the speed at which yours runs to become some what slower. But it will not be as slow as that if you were choosing to use a dial up service.

The main advantage to using the facilities provided by DSL services providers in Houston and other cities and towns across the US is that the line connecting you to the internet is your own. So this means that no other person can be connected to it outside your own home so the actually system will run at optimum levels at all times. Whilst with a dial up service as more people are connected to it in the neighborhood where you live so the level of service and connection to the internet is greatly reduced.
