>>300KB = 2400kbps  i think is more than 2MB?

so hinay diay kaayo...
300KB is even less than half a megabyte. And dili pa gyud na constant speed.

pangkwartahay man kaayo ang mga service providers(or kanang middle-man 
providers),
we dont need to learn telecom concepts(SDH,SONET,TMF,etc) to know that 
speeds advertised
are way above the real thing that end-customers would be using.

The marketing arm of these companies put in gray neutral phrases like 
"actual speed may vary"... 
when in truth it means "actual speed will be significantly lower".  
Words like "may" sends false
impression to viewers/readers/audience/.  A lot of these words are used 
in advertising and mass comm gimmicks.
Ex: "symptoms may persist", "5/10 doctors recommend", "Faster than the 
average brand".

Of course, these service providers have their own network/telecom or 
engineering people who
really know that their marketing ppl are stretching the truth... but 
hey, this world is a business-oriented
world. And even the marketing arm ppl are just pawns of other ppl urging 
them to think of  more
"gray and misleading" phrases for their product promotions.

Pero one question lang.
ngano nag subscribe mo anang mga services even though kabalo mo that a 
saleman's promise
is only as good before it is sold?

Dah! nganong ni-enter!

:D
sowee kaayo don, sans, and others

Naa bay legal na options ma take against aning mga providers? Sobra 
naman gud ka-misleading,
Sa mga medicines and drugs naa man BFAD.. daghan pud international 
organizations na ga counter check
sa mga claims ani sa mga pharma companies.. pero how about sa service 
provider industries? kinsa
ga counter check na at least 60% true ilang gipang advertise or promote?
