Sue, I have been in telecom for 10 years and deal with this kind of question every day. If you are interested in a long explanation let me know and I will be happy to write one.
To keep it simple; 15 mbps down is considered a fast connection. This is above the threshold for most DSL services and you can easily stream HD video over this speed.
1 mbps second up is slow, it is not terrible. Most decent cables services should be able to hit 5 mbps on the uplink in a basic tier plan.
If you are having issues web browsing I would be inclined to guess there is something else going on other than your Internet connection that is slowing you down.
