I don't see how people can simply say "cable is faster then DSL".

It varies greatly, and we need to know what speed you are referring to. Saying that cable is faster then DSL could mean that a 2Mbps cable connection is better/faster then a 4Mbps DSL connection, which isn't true.

Simply put, it depends on your location and the ISP.
