Well, AFAIK you can only get 512KB/256Kb with BY, but 512KB/256KB, 1024KB/256KB and 2048KB/256KB with ADSL.

First value is downlink speed, second is the uplink speed.

They're apparently testing 1Mb and 2Mb upgrades to the BY broadband service.

NTL currently do 1mbit cable modems - but its nearly double the price.

Rumour has it when BY release the 1mbit cable service it will be a FREE upgrade from the usual 512kbit
