Really it depends on what the capabilies of dsl were assuming you are 
just using both dsl and t1 as internet connections.

a dsl that has close to 1mb/sec out and 10mb/sec or so in, is going to 
be pretty comparable to a t1 actually so not really sure why you would 
make that switch in the first place.

as long as there is a static ip for the server on either, you wouldn't 
see much difference. (t1 is actually usually delivered over hdsl which 
is basically the same thing as adsl except the bandwidth is more symetric.)

if you have a low speed dsl, such as like 128kb/sec up and 512 down 
you'll see much faster performance, but again not much big diff if both 
are just internet connections.

This is also assuming your carrier doesn't particularly grossly oversell 
either service. You need to make sure you are getting transit, not 
burstable, or quality may suffer depending on how its oversold.
