It isn't "speed", it's "bandwidth".

... and QoS trumps raw bandwidth every time. Pile of consumer-befuddling nonsense. Are you happy with your service (Y or N)? Does it represent a value for the dollars you pay for it (Y or N)? No qulification or equivocation, answer those two questions, first... I have better things to do with my time than sitting about looking at my pipeline. I obviously have this service for a purpose, and my question isn't whether or not it delivers some hypothetical capacity benchmark, it's whether or not it provides enough bandwidth for my purpose, and whether or not I think I'm getting my money's worth. Why make something more complicated than it has to be?
