We are converting from ADSL to DSL over Frame shortly and it has a 4Mbps connection, with Unmilited Nat and 20 gig international.

I didn't think ADSL suffered the same problems as cable where it shares the pipe. > > > > > > Does anyone on jetsream get 3mbit/sec ? > > > > Telecom doesn't give it to you unless it's at > least 2Mbit/s.
