I've just got a 256K leased line installed at work. I'm not super-savvy since I come from a web-design background rather than a networking one.

What I'm wondering is whether, when using my upstream, am I taking from my downstream to do so? In other words, have I got 256K upstream AND 256K downstream, or do I just have 256 to share between the two?

Leased lines are usually symmetrical such that a 256k leased line will have 256k up and 256k down concurrently.
