that is the problem, it is shocking when you look at it. There is another post somewhere he has made (cant remember what about) where he worked out one line or something was 37mbit and you multiplied that by 4 and each ubr was 158mbits or something like that and you think "omg, that is only 8 people on 20mbits on an entire ubr" (I have probably got all of this wrong) but their arguement is that they can get away with it because most ubrs are only at 70% peak load which means they have got more than enough bandwidth. They would only have a problem if everyone tried to use their connect at the same time which is obviously what happens a lot of the time and you get everyone moaning they are only receiving 1mbit on their 20mbit connection.
