Most DSL services require a username/password combination.  Because of 
that limitation, I'm forcing my home-telephony users to use Cable.  
Cable [occassionally] requires a MAC Address for authentication.  DSL, 
however, requires a username/password PPP kludge - which no VOIP phones 
offer (without additional hardware: switches, administration overhead: 
configuring multiple home routers, etc). 

Just my .02 gold nugget shavings,
