What really matters is the latency, and T-1 is a huge improvement over
DSL in that area. The easiest way to measure latency is the ping time to
a server that is “close to you” Internet-wise. A DSL has latencies of
between 40ms (if it’s extremely good and not too many other people are
using it) and 1000ms (if there is a problem somewhere). A good T-1 may
have latencies as low as 5 ms or so. Also, with a T-1 the bandwidth is
guaranteed and bidirectional. With a DSL line, you may get burstable
bandwidth – you don’t actually have that bandwidth, you just get to
compete for excess bandwidth with your neighbors.
You are confusing DSL with cable.
