I think its wrong.. its 20c/M over 500M anywhere.. Looks like the Web
Designers made a typo.

I think I just Noticed..
"The standard JetStream service has a minimum target speed of 2 megabits per
second download and 250 kilobits per second upload between your site and our
exchange if you live in an urban area. If you live in a rural area, the
target line speed is 500Kbits/second downstream and 250Kbits/second
upstream. This difference is due to the longer length of telephone lines in
rural areas"

Umm. I thought it was 2M min anywhere? When did they change it? I've never
seen in any thing from telecom that min speed is 500K in rural areas?? All
DSL lines I've seen which connect at this speed are VERY unrealiable (ie
disconnect all the time or don't connect at all)

Thanks
Craig
