I have used Cable and Dsl for a while now and I just hate the slow upload speeds. I am just wondering, bu what are the differences in T1 and ADsl/Cable? Would I actualy get 1.5 megs up and down transfer rate ( actual 1500kps )? T1 is expencive, is it worth the prices?

t1 is better suited to a large number of transactions. you will get the same speed up as you do down. but you can get that with buisness class dsl.

So, On my cable i get 3 megs down (400 kps). If it was a 3meg/3meg T1 I would get 400 up and down correct?

no, there is no such thing as a 3 meg t1. its 1.5. you would get 1.5 up and down.

you do realise thats only about 60 KB up and down right? thats really slow for what you must be paying for it.

I asked earlyer if it translates down into an actual low transfer rate. Thats all I wanted to know. T1 is pointless below 1 meg then, besides the fact that it is higher quality and such. Thank you.
