Depends
T-1 is 1.5Mbps down AND 1.5Mbps up.
Comcast is 4Mbps down, but only 384kbps up.

Here in Washington state, I test out as the same as a T-1 line (approx. 1.54 megs) on downloads. But as Negative has stated my uploads speeds would be far lower. And this is Comcast Cable.

bah, as its been said uploads > * but what was missed is the fact that cable is a shared line, hence everyone in your node is using the same connection so if i decied to download 100gig of porn from 100 different sites, which i do quite often well then, everyone else in the node suffers as t1 is a leased line, well you can imagine
thank you and good night

so if i decied to download 100gig of porn from 100 different sites, which i do quite often
1. How many terrabytes storage do you have ? 100 gigs X 100 sites = to big for me
2. how long does that take to download ?
3. Are you blind ?

I love my comcast connection ...400kb/s downloads usually...50-10kb/s uploads on our CS server...
It suits my needs. Also depends on what you're looking for in your connection.
