In your experience, what faired better during/after the storm(s)?

CABLE... DSL... DIAL-UP... or OTHER...

If one was better than the other, it may be helpful information for anyone who might be impacted in the future.

Our cable held up during both Charley and Frances even when we lost electricity. I also used a data cable with my cellphone with Charley as our evacuation house didn't have a landline activated. Slow but it worked.
