More specifically, I mean they're pretty atypical when compared with my
more normal 26400 or 28800 connects, especially the really big splits.

Given the USR's purportedly better performance with lower line levels, I'm
actually surprised that they weren't much better than reported.

Yeah, and the total accumulated effect is pretty damned atrocious too.

BG> Massive difference in the split link rate to Dave too,

RS> He has commented on seeing a rather pronounced asymmetry himself too.

I had no idea he meant it was that great though.  Bloody hell!
