The theory is, is that with NTL you don't get a definite QoS (Quality of Service) like you do with ISDN and Leased Lines so youre Modem will grab all the bandwidth it can muster, be this below the rated limit of 600kilobits or whatever or above.

you may get bursts of speed that fast but there is no way it is going to be that fast really , how about dl'ing summat from say somewhere like microsoft and timing it to see what you are really getting , on the 1mb connection i have , i sometimes see 130-140 k / s , but it aint really that fast
