Concur. Most T1 lines come with service level agreements on the
order of 99+% uptime guaranteed. Imagine getting that from cable. ;^)

It may not be as fast, but it will be more steady and reliable in

end of the connection is guaranteed, and if it goes down you will
see the telco there in hours, not days. It is a different type of
service.

Oh, I see. Still I cannot understand why DSL is so much faster
than T1. My company is looking at getting a T1 line (we cannot
get DSL or cable) and it is going to cost many times what we used
to pay for DSL in our old location yet it will be less than half
as fast.

By definition a T1 is only 1.5. If it was more, it wouldn't be a
T1.

I am curious why in this day & age T1 lines max out at 1.5Mbps
while DSL
and cable speeds are many times faster.
