I noticed last night that my router is now reporting the following:
Upstream Rate (Kbps) 320
Downstream Rate (Kbps) 512
My line was upgraded to 1024 about a month ago and the router was reporting a Downstream of above 1024kbps.

Doing a speed test on telkoms websites results int the following
* Download time: 8.922 seconds
* Size of file: 500 KiloBytes
* Estimated line speed: 457.3 (kilobits/second)
* Estimated line speed: 56 (kiloBytes/second)

When I phone technical support, can you believe they asked me who my ISP was and whether I was capped? (As being capped should affect my sync speed).

Anyone else had similar experiences?

Just checked mine and its reporting correctly. The up/down stream rates are the max the exchange will send you AFAIK so they're def doing a number on you.
 
Thats what I thought... the bastards.
