Broadband: What is the difference from a Dry loop Broadband Connection vs. a Regular Broadband? When I worked for a phone company, I remember I had customers calling me for information on getting a phone line so they may get a broadband or also known as a DSL connection. The first thing I would ask if they wanted any specific features on their phone such as caller id, for example. When they would say no, “I just want a line so I can get broadband DSL”, I would then say you could simply get a dry loop connection to have broadband internet.  It just shocked me how little...
