[ale] OT:DSL Wiring (To My Linux Box tho)

[Adrin]

You 
remember correctly the larger the cross section of the conductor the less 
resistance.  However solid over stranded can be 
debated.

  If I remember right from the Electronics Merit Badge the 
  smaller the wire the higher the resistance.  It seems logical to me too 
  that larger wire is generally more expensive and sold as "better".  So 
  maybe it's actually got more stringent manufacturing standards as well.  
  Somebody will chime in that knows the real deal I'm sure.

  I've moved my computer to another room in the back of the 
  house.  The room didn't have a phone jack so I 
  installed one.  Now my speeds have dropped from 
  ~140K to 60-70K.  I used cat3 wire and a standard modular 
  jack.  When I reconnect to the old jack in the other 
  room, speeds are still ~140.  It is on an older 
  wire that is thicker.  Should I have used <FONT
