DSL is still a widely-used method of connecting to the internet, though most major DSL providers have begun replacing their DSL networks with fiber optic connections. Fiber is better than DSL in almost every way, but it will take a long time to completely replace existing DSL networks. Fortunately, many other options for unsatisfied DSL customers are becoming available, such as 4G and 5G home internet, so you don’t have to wait for fiber providers to reach your town.
