Luxury. 2Mb/s download, yep we get that OK until the schoolbus pulls up in the village in the afternoon then 10 minutes later everything slows to a crawl. We are lucky to get 100Kb/s upload speed at any time, often it would actually be quicker to use a dial up connection! Apparently our exchange is known to be in congestion but nothing is planned to be done about it.....
