- ADSL is "Asymmetrical" i.e
downloads are faster than uploads. For example, to reach a
speed of 512K 'both ways' , you need to purchase more
bandwidth.
- Wireless is "Symmetrical" i.e.
same speed both ways. What you buy is what you get.
- ADSL is likely to remain at a top speed
of 2MBit in the next 5 years.
- Wireless is likely to migrate from
11MBit (802.11b) to 54MBit (802.11g) and then 200MBit (80216)
over the next 5 years.
