I have direcway two -way, had one way back in the day, just upgraded recently. It's better than a 56k modem, but not by much. If you want to browse you and edit slashdot then you will likely be better with some sort of accelerated dial-up. If you want to download a 50mb file in a reasonable amount of time use direcway. If you want to download anything larger than 200MB, do it in chunks. FAP will get you (an I hope the lowsey cable users someday to).
It's worth the $54.99 a month (I think that's it) if you are a geek. Don't try and do VPN over it. Unless you go "pro" version ($120 a month?) then it may work....may that is.
