Maybe, but not to the internet on an  1.5Mb/s connection. Your aDSL line=20
is only good for at most 1.5M and that's not guaranteed to happen all=20
the time. There are a lot of things that go on to throttle that. At=20
home I can connect between computers at 100 Mb/s, so what. I can't=20
connect to the internet at faster than what's capable of being supplied=20
by the ISP.
