Do you really know what does asymmetrical mean?
It means the download speed and upload speed isn't the same.....that simple

. dont complicated it.
If you are coming from streamyx era user you should know that it does degrade the quality of line when full blast upload n download at the same time.
Actually, in the days of Streamyx, the technology was ADSL, where the A stands for Asymmetric. So high DL and low UL speeds were part of the technology. For example, your line could be 1mbps down and only 128kbps up. Whatever you blast is limited by these speeds.
Now, with FTTH, the speeds can be set to be any way, it's up to how the telco sees the usage pattern. So up to 20mbps, TM decreed that we should have the same speed up and down, i.e. 5/5, 10/10, 20/20. When they brought in 30mbps, they decided that 30/10 (initially 30/5) was good enough. And it was so! Then 50/20 and 100/50. But this is a technical setting by TM depending on how much speed they want to allocate, not the technology limitation.
So you can "blast" up to this speed. It does not degrade the line...
