ADSL providers will have to provide much faster speeds in the battle to keep cable at bay, according to Nortel Networks.

Alcatel said last week that it plans to buy some of Nortel Networks' wireless access infrastructure equipment for US$320 million in an effort to beef up its 3G wireless business in Europe and Asia.
Nortel Networks was disappointed to miss out in Telstra's recent round of billion dollar networking hardware contracts, but last week warned the winners they had better shape up or face being shipped out.
