actuly, a DS1 (t1) is 1544Kbps (thats in bits per second) so 1544/8=193 kb/s (bytes) because there are 8 bits in one byte. So you have more download at home then a t1 :) The university probably has a ds2 (t2) or better, most universitys have fractional DS3's. Just for imformation about the difference between bits and bytes.
