Most people don’t upload stuff to the Internet anywhere near as much as they download stuff from the Internet. Most DSL or cable modem customers want to download videos faster— not upload their own web pages to the rest of the world.
Cable and DSL providers know this. So they provide “asymmetrical” service, where uploads are much slower than downloads. Specifically, many DSL connections upload at only 128kbps (roughly 128,000 bits per second), even though they download at 1.44mbps (roughly 1,440,000 bits per second). Cable connections tend to have somewhat faster upload speeds but are still typically limited to 384kbps (384,000 bits per second).
