Jack,
I don't know what manufacturer you might be thinking of, but from a
standards point of view ADSL2 and ADSL2+ both have faster upstream
speeds than ADSL (G.dmt or T1.413)
Oh, standards wise, that is true. However, the gear they had (AFC)
supported 8/1.5 for ADSL and I think 24/1 for ADSL2+. My point wasn't
about standards, but an actual event. There is a perception that faster
download is an upgrade, even if your upload is reduced. For the most
part, they were right. Only a small percentage of the customers were
upset at the upload decrease.
The kicker was, the max downlink speed they allowed was 10. If they
could have supported the right annex, they could have had more upload.
Vendor limitations and such. :(
