DSL Routers are the networking routers which are used for connections in DSL lines.
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) technology provides high-speed, broadband network connections to homes and small businesses. DSL technology is also called loop technology. DSL utilizes the same cabling used for normal telephones, but it can offer higher data rates... ... through use of so-called digital modem technology. Still a relatively new technology that telephone companies and other access providers are in the process of deploying for the first time, DSL remains unavailable in many locations. Some customers already subscribed to DSL -- so-called "early adopters" -- have experienced the growing pains of this very promising network service.
DSL technology theoretically supports data rates of 8.448 Mbps, although typical rates are 1.544 Mbps or lower.
DSL Internet services are used primarily in homes and small businesses. DSL Internet service only works over a limited physical distance and remains unavailable in many areas where the local telephone infrastructure does not support DSL technology.
People sometimes refer to Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) services as "xDSL" services. This happens because the term DSL refers to a group of related networking technologies rather than just one. Due to the way in which these technologies evolved historically, a good metaphor for xDSL is a family tree.
xDSL does encompass many varieties: ADSL, HDSL, SDSL, and VDSL just to name a few.
In essence, DSL technology promises to relieve the "World Wide Wait" syndrome that many on the Internet still complain about.
