You probably can't have DSL because your too far from the phone company (where the magic happens)...I had that problem at my former residence, a suburban neighborhood). We were like literally 1/2 mile too far away...I don't toally understand these things (this is per my geek buddy). None the less we just got cable modem....sucks you cant get cable modem
