OK - someone explain this to me in a cute, easy manner.

I am being told that my port to Jetstart is rate limited at Telecom to 128kbit.
Explain then, in simple terms, why I can log into the Jetstream Games
context at 3.3Mbit, if _logins have nothing to do with it_! (I'm not close
enough for 8mbit.)

I've read all the messages and still don't make much sense of it. Maybe I
need to read them again.

BTW, on the topic, does this make it possible to order Jetstart at
$30/month and not put any ISP on top of it at all, and just get Jetstream
Games!

(Oh, and when quoting, please be relevant.. I am sick of digests that are 4
times larger than they need be, even if my traffic _is_ flatrate ;)
