Hope I'm in the right forum. I recently added some videos to my webpage on-line. Since I am on broadband cable they load and play almost instantly. Went to a friend's house who has DSL and checked and they load and play fast. Have a friend that tried it at work on a T1 connection and he said it took 25 seconds to load and play. Then I decided to check it out at my local library (who say they have a T3 connection) and it took 19 minutes to load and play.
I thought that the T1 connection, which I believe is used by businesses, was the fastest. So I also assumed that a T3 connection would also be fast. Where do these different connections fit in as far as speed goes. Is broadbans cable the fastest? Does the number of users on-line at the same time affect the speed on each connection? Any help to broaden my mind (which is narrowing at age 69) would be appreciated...
