I've *never* seen the speed i connect at (almost 8Mbit), even when i had
unlimited jetstream, the absolute maximum DUmeter would show me was
450KB/sec or so, no matter how many threads i opened, 450K/sec was my max.

Can everyone test on the JSG realm their max speed using the ftp site ? (the
site may be throttled), but login like 3 or 4 times and see how fast you can
get your dsl going.

Mine fully seems capped at 450KB/sec. I'm on the glenfield exchange.
