I've got 8mbps adsl at home and 20mbps adsl at work. The funny thing is... now i want more speed...

Those are ridiculous speeds. Canada is lagging way back when it comes to this level of speed being available to consumers. Fastest connections are still corporate T1/T3 lines.

Im on 14.4 Still !!!

That's like more than two ds3's, huh? ds3 = T3 = 28 T1's. Each T1 carries 1.544 M/s, in bandwidth, right?

If that's the case, that is absurd. There is no way in hell that's dedicated. That's probably the capacity of the whole network, shared over many users. Your actual speed is probably significantly lower.

A GigE connection (1000Mbps or 1Gbps) is faster than a traditional OC12 line which can only accomodate about 622Mbps.

Wouldn't mind a few of these? I doubt the UK has this if it combined its entire broadband network together!

How many ds3's/t3's in an oc12? I was in Telecom for almost a year, but that's ludicrous bandwidth and I can't remember the conversion rates for an OC3 or and OC12 anymore.
