Within the coming months, Qwest DSL will be offering higher DSL speeds in 23 markets. The Qwest has been upgrading its system for several years, running fiber from its central offices to new remote terminals with high-speed VDSL2 electronics closer to subscriber’s houses.

Depending on distance from the remote terminal actual speeds may differ . While Travis Leo couldn’t provide definite numbers, he was able to confirm that the huge majority of Qwest customers are able to get 12Mbps download speeds with their DSL connections. Just those that are lives closest to the terminals (located at remote locations) will be able to have anything that is even close to the 40Mbps. They’ll need a new modem to do so.

This really sounds lame specifically when it is viewed in comparison with other items like FiOS and DOCSIS3. It surely offers 50Mbps to most consumers (the new deployment, now can reach 100Mbps) Although it may not be perfect, it provides about the best DSL service available in the US .

Qwest believes that it has all the speed it needs for the next few years; Leo stressed repeatedly that Qwest doesn’t believe broadband sales is strictly a speed-focused game, and that Qwest’s “value-added” services would close the speed gap. In the coming years, the company can always discover new channel-bonding technology or just run fiber out from its remote terminals and up to people’s houses One possibility for change is for the company to experiment with the creation of new channel-bonding technology, and another is to begin running lines into customer’s home from the remote terminals.
