I don't know about Comcast specifically, but most Internet connections
can receive data faster than they can send it.  As long as you're not
running a server (or a peer-to-peer service), this almost never causes
problems--your average user receives far more data than he or she
sends.

I don't know how fast you consider "fast enough", but it seems pretty
fast to me.  I'm accessing it via Sonic DSL.
