Right now the upstream is not very consistent. As you say VM seem to be struggling to deliver. Two up channels would spread the load, would they not? Surely they would have to be capable of finding an extra channel up when they roll out 200Mb/20Mb.

13 folk have joined the speed wave so far. Your connection would be one of the better ones.............. apart from your upstream.
