Well Ken, depending on how far from the nearest node you are, you can get up to 100Mbps.

I think the general rule is that for every 100m distant you are, you lose around 7-10% of max. So, if you are 400m away, you would be asked to pay for, in this example, a 100Mbps connection. Because of your distance, you would expect to achieve at best, about 70Mbps.

This is why FTTdP is a much better idea. Taking the fibre to the pit near your house allows for basically maximum speed. FTTN doesn't, unless you have a dirty big green metal node box on your front lawn.
