419186 2006-01-08 10:40:00 ¹ Speed Explained: On Full-Speed plans you can generally expect to achieve speeds between 2Mbps and 7Mbps. Upload speed is up to 12 times faster than dial-up.So 56 x 12 = 672 which is still pretty slow.


¹ Speed Explained - These speeds are the maximum possible speeds only. Actual speeds will vary depending on Internet traffic, the sites you visit and other factors. For more information visit www.telecom.co.nz/speedforbusiness. Upload speeds for all plans is a maximum of 128Kbps. - www.telecom.co.nz

It's not full rate, but it is faster. Finding all the JS plans (particularly the wholesale ones) on Telecom's site is a nightmare.

That's why you only offer large files over bittorrent
