Now that i'm on 3Mb, I know its not possible (probably wasn't on 1.5Mb either) to download at a full 360KB/s and upload at a full 36KB/s at the same time, due to no room for the ACKS.

But if i limit my download speed to under 150KB/s I still can't upload at anything higher than around 8KB/s.

Surely if i leave around 110KB/s room on the line, it could be used to make the upload reach its maximum speed?

I realise its not meant to be a simultaneous service, but whats the maximum possible speed available if you wanted to download and upload at the same time - something like 60KB/s download and 36KB/s upload?

Its not a problem for me, just more of a query...I wish I had more knowledge on the way protocols work.

Any advice would be great.
