t1 versus cabel/modem

[monte single]

How does the download rate of  t1 compare to cabel modem. On my cable modem connection I think I
depends a lot on where I am downloading from. Sometimes I may only get twenty or thirty kbs/s. When I
downloaded redhat 8.0 from limestone.oregon.edu----i think that was it, it was more like 360 kbs/s.
