My friend just got SDSL and it is about the same speed that you guys are talking about (1.5mbps down/765kbps up) I dont know what I am missing but why pay that much for a T1 when you can get higher end DSL for about half? What is it about T1 that everyone likes so much? On another note I get about 2.4 Mbps on my CABLE modem down, and I only pay 40 a month. But my UL is caped at 400kbps. What are the normal speeds of T1 lines up and down? I had no idea T1 was caped (?) at about 200 kBps! That is slow compared to my average 250-300 kBps on a cable modem. PS go to DSLreports.com and look at what school has the fastest conection. Go bears!
