    That wasn't an actual broadband connection she had at that speed. It was just a link between her house and another building. Currently the fastest I know of is magnet with their 50Mb up and 50Mb down. That's only available in a few locations in dublin though. UPC have stated that they will have 120Mb connection by next year.

    Up to 24Mb. Not a lot of people will get any where close to that though. For example my line will max out at about 14Mbps.
