Internet in the village?

Question

Computer networks

In the village, telephone cables run to the houses.
1) If a telephone wire, then necessarily ADSL?
2) What are the disadvantages of ADSL?
3) Does it happen that the operator does not work with settlements on ADSL?
4) Do telephone wires necessarily belong to a specific operator? If I want to spend wired Internet in my home in this way, and after changing the operator, will I have to pay again or will the cable already be my property?
5) ADSL is a type of line, but is an adsl modem another thing? Modem but running on ADSL?
For me, a modem is a flash drive in a computer. Please explain it using an analogy in simpler terms.
Thanks everyone for the replies!

Answer 1

1. No. Depends on the freshness of the PBX
2. Asymmetric channel (upload up to 512 kbps (in reality 256 if everything is fine)), high requirements for the cable. It will not start on the Soviet cap.
The need to pay for the phone even if you do not use it and you only need the Internet. Reduced speed in bad weather.
3. Yes. Point 1
4. Wires usually belong to Rostelecom. Adsl has an absolute monopoly.
5. ADSL is a kind of wired data transmission technology. And an ADSL modem / router is a regular router that receives the Internet not through a WAN port, but through a telephone cable.
There will be a simple box into which a telephone cable is plugged through a splitter

Answer 2

I will add on point 5

5) ADSL is a type of line, but is an adsl modem another thing? Modem but running on ADSL?
For me, a modem is a flash drive in a computer. Please explain it using an analogy in simpler terms.

That thing that looks like a flash drive most likely works through a cellular network. There are modems in the form of a separate box into which wires are stuck. There are different modems, as well as wires - both for telephone cable and for coaxial (like on a TV) and for all sorts of others. Yes, and radio modems are not only through cellular communications.

Answer 3

I will add: there are different types of modulation in the modem, I recommend trying g.dmt and Adsl / adsl2. The first one gives less signal attenuation, less ping, increases the stability of the connection, but you have to pay with speed. The second is designed for excellent signal performance (line noise) and can deliver noticeably higher speeds.
At home, I turned on g.dmt, the speed is 5 Mbps downstream, the ping is 42ms.
