I'm a newb in computer. And I was wondering which is the fastest connection. IDSL or Cable or WiFi.

Cable in your list, but are you sure you don't mean just DSL. It all depends on where you're at and whats available in your area. Some Cable connections are up to 5Mbps (625KB) and most DSL connections are 1.5 - 2Mbps. Like I said though, it all depends on what's available where you're at.

as he said, it does depend on where you live. Most of the time cable is faster, but other times DSL is faster. And WiFi is generally slow since there are alot of people using it.

Find out the speeds for the Cable and DSL conenctions, and price, then we can help you decide which one to get.

Thanks very much, guys. Sorry if I confused you a little bit. As you can see, I'm pretty much a newb. But I'm very much interested in learning more about computers.

Anyway, forget about this question. It's enough for now. And if I have anymore, I'll ask again. Thank you. You guys are the best, really!
