Any one know and if so what it is.
Thanks in advance,
Danny

There's a cap on the speed of the downloads. I forget how it works
(someone on ADSLguide will be able to tell you) but the cap works out
between 512k and 1024k iirc.

I believe that you are allowed up to 4 connections PER SERVER (they have
4 servers if you use IP address instead of news.dsl.pipex.com).
The first connection is at 40kB/s and the other 3 at 20. Set up right,
and with the right software, you could probably max out a 2MB connection
