I'm sorry, but you got it wrong yourself... the "A" stands for Asymmetric,
not asynchronous (you probably confused it with the A in ATM. Well, at least
didn't confuse it with the A in Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter" :))
I don't know what you mean that ADSL is "asynchronous". So what? Can't it
still split up the frequency range in an asymmetric way between the two
directions, giving more frequencies to the downstream range? Anyway, I
believe that ADSL is synchronous, not asynchronous... Take a look for
example at http://www.adsl.com/adsl_tutorial.html
