i have optimum online and my bandwidth is usually around 3.5 megabits a second i can usually get around 120 kb/s on http downloads sometimes in the 200-300 kb/s but varying as the download goes .

T1 is rated at 1.544Mbps downstream so (divide by 8) that's around a good solid 193 KB downloads. ADSL can often beat it, but the best of the best is OC-768 which is rated at 40Gbps!!! That's around 5 GB/s!!!

T1 also has 1.5 mbps upload which is a big difference from cable or dsl as most if not all of them are assymetrical and have slower upload than download...

When I first got Comcast, it was symmetrical, but that didn't last long. The official story was that it was to keep people from using their machines as servers. In fact, it saves them a bunch of bandwidth. Your point is well taken. A lot of people don't realize that a two-way communication is going on in a DL, and that being capped upload drastically slows down a DL.
