Why a DS1 (proper term for T1)? It's only 1.544 Mb/s. My cable modem runs 5 Mb/s down & 800K up. Many DSLs will also give better performance, than a DS1.

Assuming the other side can handle it, I have in the past downloaded CDs at 5 minutes per iso on my current connection. I don't know exactly what that works out to in Mbps, I think the cap was the other side though :) --Anders, who is moving in a week and is praying nightly that the new place will have a nice connection
