1. What will I have to do? 2. Will it switch my Routers out? 3. Will it do anything at all? 4. Will i have to move somewhere else for broadband? 1. To get DSL or Broadband service you need to call some local internet service providers that you may have heard of such as Century Link, Comcast, Etc, set up an internet service plan which is normally paid each month. 2. The modern ISP sells or maybe even gives you a 2-in-1 modem that provides you with all you need, others you may have to connect to a wireless router yourself. 3. DSL is a huge improvement compared to dial-up. 4. Maybe, I live in the woods as well, and I am lucky enough to get decent speeds from Century Link. Did I answer all your questions? |

From what I know there isn't a way to go beyond your given download speed. |
