Yes, I use rsync to backup about 90GB of data over ADSL connections and it's always rock solid. If you are transferring big files you might want to use the "--partial" flag so that way partially copied files are resumed rather than deleted and started again if the connection is interrupted.
Yes. Rsync is prefectly capable of this. It will also help you if you need to run the transfer again, or abort it and resume later, as it will not recopy what is already there.
If you have reliable modification timestamps on your data, you may want to disable checksumming to speed up the process.
If you can, allways try to compress your information first.
For large files, Rsync is able to resume transfers by using ‑‑partial and ‑‑inplace.
