DSL's limit is close to being reached with SBC's 768 up
Since most DS-1s these days are delivered over HDSL, I would have to say that you are mistaken.
Isn't your typical residential ADSL limit around 8/1?

768kbps is the max DSL will run at for upload. Zak3056 See Profile is the one who is mistaken. The DS, OC, or T1 lines feeding your CO may provide higher uploads, but the DSL technology can't feed that bandwidth between the CO/RT and your house. The theoretical limit is 1.0M but nobody is ever going to see that sort of upload on DSL and maintain reliability.

We have had absolutely no problems running full 1.0M on the upstream path in this country. Perhaps your telcos just suck?

On the standard ADSL (not 2+ or anything like that) technology?
I wouldn't have said so before a few months ago, but I'm quite tired of my ISP right now.

Correct. Bell in Eastern Canada won't sell anything more than 800 up, but Telus in Western Canada has full 1M up products, or at least did anyway.
