It's infuriating that although that short distance
 and good cable are capable of 55 Meg per pair,
 they only offer*  2 Meg one way.

It degrades the TransACT network back to what ADSL can offer cheaper.

* To get 10 Meg full duplex would cost $800? per month,
 I doubt they get much revenue from this price step.
