Conventional telephone lines are capable of transmitting data at a speed of 30 kilobits per second. Now, the speed is nothing to scoff at but if you are looking for connectivity that will help take care of data transmission of a more sophisticated nature, then you can easily look for T1 Internet service.

A T1 line is capable of transmitting data at 192,000 bytes per second. This is around sixty times more than conventional telephone line.
