    Pay for 1500/256kbps - get ~1200/200kbps, though sometimes it gets down to 200kbps symmetrical (I think due to congestion at Exchange).

    I think some people may be confusing kbps/Mbps with KB/s and MB/s (either that or I just have terrible internet). There IS a difference.
    To me that kind of speed is amazingly fast. Almost 10 times faster than the maximum I can get in my area without paying $200AUD/month (~$210USD) more than what I do now.

    Nice to see my phone and home internet holding up so far... Sadly they cost around $30 and $100 a month, respectively :(

    Edit: I am not lucky enough for $10/month Internet...

    These are my results from using speedtest.net:
    The server is about 40miles away.
    I pay £7.50 per month to get between 11-14Mbps but I do live next to a woodland area and I'm not the only person using the internet when I ran the test. I'm also the furthest person away from the router (using WiFi on laptop). The £7.50 is unlimited download as well, and by "unlimited" it means truly unlimited, there's no cap at all.

    I'm actually on Sky Internet which is basically the standard version of BT internet before they released Infinity. I'm supposed to be getting improved speeds at some point but I have no idea when.

    My area will probably be the VERY last place to get Fibre in Australia.
