You are lucky so, mine just sucks most of the time. I have a 2Mbit  
connection, which really is only 1Mbit (at best). The 1MB was really  
dire.
If I check the IntarWeb sites (speedtests), it usually reports tons  
of packet loss.

Now I'm off to make a burger to absorb the alcohol...

p.s.: Netsource are great, never had a problem - apart from paying  
eirccom 25 quid a month line rental.
