Don't count on being able to push the full 32 simultaneous calls.  Cable 
modems are notorious for failing to deliver the full bandwidth the subscriber 
is paying for.  In many places customers end up getting 33Kbbps or less on a 
regular basis.  The available bandwidth tends to fluctuate  frequently.

In contrast, many (if not most) DSL systems will provide a constant bandwidth 
close to the maximum rate the customer is paying for.  Most DSL providers 
will cap the available CONTINUOUS rate to around 540Kbps for a 650Kbps 
connection (as an example).  All DSL providers will allow the rate to 
momentarily spike to the full speed the customer is paying for.  A small 
number of DSL providers allow the full bandwidth to be used all the time.
