I'm getting 1.5 - 2.0 Mbps on cable.

That's about what I get at home too.

Then I bought cable access for a business. What a ripoff! They charge twice as much for the minimum business service for much less bandwidth. All they do is clamp it and try to extort more money. I told the bastards cable company to rip it out and then I got DSL. It gets about 25% of my cable speed at home at about the same cost.

DSL is generally going to be a better fit for small business. You get guaranteed bandwdth, and you can get the upload bandwidth you need by paying more. My company has 5 static IPs for about $99 a month. we only need two, but the design of subnets allows only packages of one and five (actually three and seven, but two are not available to the user).
