BT Business leased line spec

I was just reading this post, and decided to check a few things out.

I came to a table headed "BTnet technical specifications".

It has three columns, Specification, Description, Explanation. One particular line below, a column at a time - Heading then contents:-

Specification - Max download bandwidth.
Description - Same as contracted port speed i.e. if you opt for 100Mbps on a 100M bearer, you will receive a guaranteed 100Mbps downstream.
Explanation - The speed at which you can upload to the Internet. Broadband max is generally 'up to' 1Mbps.

???? I think I'm missing something Bob. Leased lines are a different kettle of ballparks entirely.

[chuckle]

I don't get the joke?

Ummmm, to both? Let's see if I can make it more obvious.

Specification - Max download bandwidth. Description - 100Mbps download. Explanation - The speed at which you can upload to the Internet.

It has been copy/pasted from the previous line. Scroll down this page.

An easy mistake, but if I were looking to pay leased line prices I wouldn't be impressed by such carelessness. And of course, the reason for my chuckle.
