Think
about when you were a kid learning to walk. You started by crawling
(first analog modems); then you began taking your first awkward,
slow steps (28.8K, 33.6 K, then 56.6 K modems); and finally you
were running all over the place exploring things that were once
out of reach (WarpCore DSL). Stop crawling. Take a run at the Internet
and explore the sights and sounds you're missing with your ordinary
dial-up connection.

Speed comparisons are based on the following throughput comparisons:
32 Kbps for 56 Kbps modem, and 320 Kbps for DSL. Actual throughput
(download) speeds you experience will vary and be lower than connection
speed after accounting for factors such as length and condition
of your telephone line; the condition of wiring inside your location;
computer configuration; network or Internet congestion; and the
server and router speeds of Web sites you access, among other
factors. WarpCore DSL cannot guarantee uninterrupted or error-free
service, or the speed of your service. DSL is not available on
all telephone lines.
