I remember a few years back NTL were offering 'broadband' that was 128kb/s. Any now AOL unlimited are offering 256kb/s for their basic broadband service. Shouldnt these be better defined as mid-band, as they fool people into thinking they are getting something which the arent. Anyway, does anyone know at what speed a connection actually can be defined as broadband?

Different people have different definitions. "Anything faster than dial up" to "512Kbps".
You've managed to define midband quite emphatically but shied away from doing the same with broadband for some reason.
Don't be shy. lol
Typically anything above 64K is classed as Broadband. Below this - dialup and ISDN for example - is classed as Narrowband. Quite agree with what you are saying.
