No way the "Average" is faster then the best DSL speed of 6.0 mbits or so.
3.9 sounds MUCH more accurate.
Could be right since they are using AVERAGE and not MEDIAN which is much more accurate. For example 4 houses; 3 with 6 Mbps DSL one with 20 Mbps cable. AVERAGE speed 9.5 Mbps. Even though 75% of those houses can't even get close to that speed. MEDIAN speed would be 6 Mbps which is more accurate.
Yes, but even then, seems unlikely because the vast numbers of DSL lines out there. And most DSL lines don't make it all the way to 6.0 anyway--- and then there's the issue of how many people are actually maxxing out their connections. Very few. -- "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini
