Vulture,

No, no - I only predict worthless threads! This thread is good.

I will comment tomorrow - the superego stuff has wasted all my time again - I got to cut that shit out [i't's funny tho :) ]

Can anyone tell me, what would be the average cost, per month, for a partial T1 line? For example, how much would a 256kb/s or 512 kb/s line cost me?

I'm considering hanging up the cable internet solution I'm running now. The reason is that the cable companies don't supply Service Level Agreements.

Those with the experience of both T1/cable Internet, is it worth the cost, going to a T1 over a cable/dsl solution?

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you...:)

I used to scalp. Would not attempt that on anything less than DSL. Cable can have too high latency. T1 and Frame are nice... and expensive. I use T1 for one reason: dependability. My circuit is monitored in real-time. If something goes wrong the telco knows about it before I do.

By the way, I use a new swing trading system now. Slow entry/exits. I can trade via 56K now and save a lot of money. It is true that the cost of a T1 pales to the profitability of trading, but it will still be nice to hang on to that $900 a month.
 
My T-1 line here in IL costs me only $500 per month.
The setup was $250 and the router cost $800.
Best connection I've ever had. T-1 lines have much less downtime than DSL, Cable, etc.

Good price; what is the duration of your contract and who is the vendor?
 
I know a guy who just rent High speed fiber optic line from Sprint $500 per year. He bought, installed his own router & server. He is very happy about the system & cost.
:cool:

That works out to DSL prices; is it a DSL?

That is one good price; we have a lot of them from different providors and the cheapest is around $800. Are you sure that is a full T1 and not a partial?
