A mate of mine at work was complaining of the internet being slower than usual, I said it is like that more often than not, he said it still seems slow for 1 meg. I said they don't do 1 meg anymore, it's gone to 2 meg. He's just gone into his modem config and it turns out he's on 512k down and 128k up

He's going to ring them up and I've asked the missus to look into it as well, seems a bit odd, or is it ?
