@freitasm: Do you pay for it personally, or does your business? Last time I looked at the costs on those sorts of things they were VERY expensive per month. The cost of running a link to the premises, media conveters etc isn't small.

You're right about it being just a change on the routers though, to get a speed increase all that has to happen is the rate-limits applied to your service are adjusted.

30 seconds work for a techie to do, 4 weeks of waiting for the paperwork for the poor customer.

I think my point still holds, of course there's always a few "hardcore" consumers that will have the uber tech and be happy to pay for it. Mostly it's businesses though.

Oh wait, I've just clicked: You're not talking about cable modems are you? I classify those in the same group as DSL. I ment a fixed ethernet connection with a static IP address etc.
