In order of best technology/speed:

1. Quantum (CenturyLink) Fiber: Fiber has no degradation as user load increases.
2. Spectrum: Spectrum is a combination of Fiber and Cable, so performance will not be as good as pure Fiber.
3. Xfinity - Pure broadband cable. Performance drops as user load increases.
4. CenturyLink DSL: Any type of DSL is very slow compared to fiber or cable. Performance degrades quickly as distance to connection hub increases and as user load increases.

This listing has nothing to do with price - only addresses the best technologies and speeds.
