Let me heat that up for you... 
Dial Up (DSL): Internet that uses the local phoneline to acces the WWW. Note: You [u]cannot[/u] be connected to the net and be on the phone at the same time.

Cable: Uses coaxial cables (much like antanas and VCRs) to connect to the internet.

ADSL: A faster form of DSL, but has an advantage that with special filters you may access your emails and view TDN while on the phone. Makes use of Ethernet cables.

ADSL+2: The latest in DSL/ADSL connectivity. Faster speeds, although the connection area is very limited, due to its relative newness. More and more places are getting ADSL+2 connection ares though, so one day we will all be able to have this new speedy internet.

i hope that helped...
