Hope they don't advertise that elsewhere apart from their own website!
The real killer there is that they are talking about it like it is the kind of performance you might actually see. You won't even on an absolutely flawless line that's 1 inch long.

Anyway, I didn't think there was anything dodgy about an ISP using the catch-all get-out-words 'up to'.

EDIT AGAIN
