I was able to watch a 1mb telewest customer downloading off a 2mb ADSL customer and the ADSL customer said that Telewest was giving faster speeds than he had.
Its there! its possible! It just in the control of the blind who cannot see what is happening around them and have lost direction.. NTL!!!

Youre confusing two seperate issues.
1> Opening up cable companies networks to allow other providers to supply competition
2> Raw Connection Speed
The answer you quoted referred to 1 .
As regards 2 then yes it is a (relatively) simple matter to rewrite the config files etc to give whatever combination of maximum downstream/upstream you like . It could be 2 Mb/512k or 2Mb/256k , it could even be 1.75Mb/350k or 4Mb/1mb however are we likely to see such service levels being offered in the near future? Judging by answers elsewhere in the past I very much doubt it
