DSL, or digital subscriber line, is essentially internet service sent over telephone wires. These are the same twisted copper lines that carried analog phone service and dial-up internet years ago. The difference is that DSL uses a transmission technique and hardware that allows for much higher bandwidth and the line’s ability to be “shared” between voice and internet service.

Verizon High Speed Internet Speeds
Dial-up internet delivered download speeds well below 1 Mbps, but DSL from Verizon can provide upwards of 15 Mbps in many areas. For many Verizon High Speed Internet customers, data travels over old copper lines for only a short time before switching over to a future-proofed fiber-optic line, which then ferries data to the internet at large. The maximum download speed available for you will depend on your specific address, since speeds vary from neighborhood to neighborhood.
