# it would be:)
It's always annoys my techie side when you see shops selling broadband modems. Ther's no such thing. A modem is a modulator/demodulator basically it converted digital signals to analog and back.
Braodband is a digital line anyway so a modem isn't needed.

# Depends if your phone line is ISDN.
A majority wont be, and will still be analogue.

ISDN isn't really broadband

# Sure, but it's still a digital line. And my point that a majority of houses will have an anologue phone line still stands.

# No they have coaxel wiring.
You're confusing that with being nondigital and fibreop being the option for a digital line.

Coax can be digital. A digital signal is just the presance and absence of a property, be it light or electrical enery.
ISDN, I believe, counds as a polyband not a broadband.

# hahah, that sort of thing bugs me too...
a few weeks ago, someone at work was trying to be smart and asked me to save something for her in "PDF format". That really bugged me.

# Actually...
I'm not certain about cable (the service may be entirely digital), however ADSL works over existing analogue lines, so must use a modem.
(, Mon 9 Mar 2009, 12:12, archived)
# No
As I explained above coax can sent a digital signal as it is an electronical conduit. Power on=1 power off=0.
Fibre op is faster admittedly but speed is not something were debated atm.
