Question

Do I have to have a phone line to get the high speed internet? If not, do I have to have cable tv?

Answer 1

no you can get DSL with earthlink, verizon and ATT the new 10 dollar deal!!

Answer 2

If you want DSL, you have to have a phone line and have active phone service. If you want Cable internet, you have to have a cable line running to your house and have the physical cable in your wall. If you don't have it, you can get it installed when they install your internet. You do not need to have cable TV to get cable internet, you just need the wire.

The fastest internet available now is verizon fios, see if that's available in your area before you pick a high speed provider. It's really cheap for the speed you get, too.

Answer 3

You can buy just cable internet service from your local provider, it will cost a little more than what the average subscriber pays and you dont have to get TV service or phone service.  I do have all 3 service and am happy with them.
