£113 a month?

And what downloads speeds would that get? (kbs)

[Golden Dragoon]

well 512kbs generaly gets 60KBs so doing the maths a 1024mbs connection would get 122,880KBs min though as it is based on LAN technology rather than ADSL it will have a higher effectiveness so 163,840KBs is a more likely figure which is about 160MBs
