More than likely there will be if you don't use a filter on the Phone.  Check with your phone company to see if they have one for you to use.

If you're getting 8MB, you're probably not getting either DSL or ADSL, but some sort of fiber, assuming it's coming from "the phone company".   If it's coming from a cable TV company, then what you're getting is a cable modem which is attached to the same cable that your cable TV comes in on (assuming you have that service).\n\nDSL means "digital subscriber line", and ADSL is "asymmetric DSL".   It is asymmetric because communication in one direction (TO YOU from the internet) is much faster than in the other direction (FROM YOU to the internet).

Nothing.  DSL is broadband.

I have the same problem. It's because of a problem with the phone line. There is either static, noise, or a bad ground on your phone line. I have found that some times it helps to shut down and reboot. Dial up is the worst, this is all I can get were I live. Try another service. Also have you up dated your windows, And virus protection? It also helps to Remove everything you don't need or wont from you computer, the more you have, the slower you computer works. Hope this helps, It did wonders for mine.

Four possible problems --\n\n1) Modem is not working correctly and needs fixed or replaced.\n\n2) You are getting bad signals on the line (corrupted line) and the modem is getting mixed up on how to handle.\n\n3) A slight possible problem is that your options on your computer are not set properly to handle the DSL hookup, but I doubt this since it only happens every few weeks. \n\n4) Power or power spikes at the DSL Provider company is causing the DSL line to have errors and the DSL device stops working.  This can happen in lighting storms, High wind, or someone hits a power pole! \n\nIn both cases, you need your DSL representative to send a technical person to do a check of your line and modem to be sure they are in good working order.\n\nThe technical person will likely tell you that since you are not getting the problem more often that they are likely not going to be able to trace down the problem.  \n\nSuggestion -- See if there is a log on your Internet connect that can be set on to trace all communications.  You have a good chance of catching what is causing the problem if your computer has the capability to log problems.  Mine is done through the security software I have installed.\n\nRecommend going to Cable if you can.  It does not cost too much more and you will have far fewer problems!

If you want you dns to be static, then uncheck automatically assign dns in your network connections.  To flush the dns use, ipconfig /flushdns

Are you using a wired connection or wireless?  If you are using a wireless connection, try hooking up to your router with a cable.  If it starts running faster, you know it's the the wireless connection that's causing the problem.\n\nWireless connections can suffer from interference from cordless telephones and your neighbor's wireless ethernet.  One thing that can happen is that you are accidentally connecting to your neighbor's wireless connection.  Check which wireless network you are connecting to.  Click on the wireless network icon to the right side of the top menu bar.  Click "open internet connection" to see the network you are connected to and the strength of the signal you are receiving.\n\nEvery once in a while my DSL / wireless performance will just go to pot.  I restart my DSL modem, router, and computer, and things start working again.

Thats because you're using a dial-up or DSL connection. Each time you will get a different IP address. Because the IP is dynamic in this case

check you ethernet cable.  It is like a large phone line running to the back of your computer.  Make sure it is plugged in on both ends.  Also try unplugging and replugging your cable/dsl modem or router

DSL = Before going thru a lot of exercises, call your ISP and ask them if they are having any problems, to first eliminate that possibility. You could throw in a request for a new modum.  Just make sure it isn't your router that's causing the problem.\n\nCall your phone company and insist that when you are talking on the phone you frequently hear a lot of loud  static/crackling, and that you want your outside and inside lines replaced.(Don't mention anything about the internet)  \n\n\nTry start/connect to/show all connections/right click on the connection that you are using/repair, and  check for spyware/malware.  \n\nFlush your dns .=.  start/run/ cmd/ ipconfig /flushdns/ok(enter)     \n Are you using a software firewall and/or router?\n\n\nUnplug modem/router and turn off computer, then plug everything back in.  Also check to make sure your network card is  correctly installed.=  Windows XP = r/click "my computer"/click the "hardware" tab/click "device manager"/\nexpand "network adapters" and see if there is anything listed, and if it is listed, see if it has an "X" or exclamation mark? \n\n\nClear/clean your cache and go to your local settings folder and empty your "temp" folder.\n\nBroadband Reports =» The 'bible' for Information on DSL, Cable and Other High Speed Internet Services = \nhttp://www.dslreports.com/tools  +   \n broadbandreports.com/tools/ connection tools\nhttp://www.broadbandreports.com/tools + \n\nhttp://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php\n\nhttp://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest\n\nTCP Optimizer = Speed up internet =   \nhttp://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=2104\n\nhttp://www.testmy.net \n\nhttp://www.auditmypc.com/internet-speed-test.asp\n\nhttp://cable-dsl.home.att.net = Navas Cable Modem/DSL Tuning Guide  \n\n\nHow to interpret your Line Stats = http://www.kitz.co.uk/adsl/linestats.htm\n\n\nBT Broadband Desktop Help is a FREE, automated support tool = http://www.btyahoo.com/broadbandhelp\n\nBroadband - UK -= http://www.adslguide.org.uk/isps/summarylist.asp\n\nTautology Bandwidth Meter = http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/link/tbm/ \nnet meter =   http://readerror.gmxhome.de/

DSL uses just your phone line. It's most likely ADSL - SDSL is a lot more expensive and not generally used by your average consumer.

Try degaussing..it is probably within the button on your monitor, set color etc.. when get to degauss push the button and it will remove static, worth a shot

Most of the time static is caused by interference.  Next time try putting your cell phone next to your speakers and you'll hear static before your cell phone rings.  So to rid of the static first locate any devices that might interfere with it like radios, cell phones, etc.  You might try to place your speakers and computer further apart.  One more thing that might cause static is the wiring.  Try to untangle any wires that might be touching your speaker wires.

Most of the telephone companies require you to keep the lan line connection for having DSL.  DSL requires a telephone line for transmitting data (even though theoretically, you don't need the land line connection from that company).  But companies like SBC and Bell South bundle the land line with DSL for better deals (and selling their wares!).  Probably, you can contact Bell South tech support and cheack whether you can get rid of the telephone connection (I bet they won't allow that).

You can't get a highspeed connection over your phone line (well except for DSL).

Open a DOS window, and type the command:\n\nipconfig /all\n\nLook at the results. If the line Dhcp Enabled has a Yes beside it, you have a dynamic IP address. You'll also see at the bottom of the output when the lease was obtained and when it expires. This is when your machine got the IP address, and when it will be getting a new one from the DHCP server.\n\nIf the line Dhcp Enabled has a No beside it, you have a static IP address.\n\nIn all likelihood, you have a dynamic IP address. Static is available on ADSL connections, but it usually costs more.

I'd make sure it's not a connections issue with your ISP - they may only have a limited number of higher-speed connections available in their modem pool.  Or check for line static.  Or possibly spyware - a good program to scan for and prevent is adaware from lavasoft.
