I have 2 connections in the house:
1. Cable Modem (claimed 1.5mps downstream provided by the TV Cable company)
2. DSL (claimed 1.5mps provided by the telephone company)
And they are connected to a load balancer before going into the home network. Works quite seamlessly.

Well, you might say I'm a bit excited...like a kid on Christmas!
Just had a FTTP connection (fiber to the premise) installed at the house today using Verizon's FiOS service. (more information here)
Needless to say, I thought my cable modem connection was fast until I started playing with this. It's a 15MB downstream and a 2MB upstream connection (not shared like cable)...
(and that was from Pittsburgh to a server in Washington, DC)
The next phase of this rollout is going to be video services. Verizon already offers it in some parts of Texas, I believe and will be offering it to me sometime in the next 8-12 months, I think.
I think in a couple more hours, I'll have visited every site on the internet (except Roadfly, of course!)
