  Those are aggregate averages, disregarding variations based on
service.  This offsets fiber connects fast speeds by also including
DSL slower speeds.

  I was curious what my Netflix streams in at, and it approaches the
4.8Mbps.  Average was right around 4.0 for an hour and a half movie on
fiber.
