It's all relative. If you're lucky, you'll be getting 400-500 kB/s. Everyone's experiences are different, you might be as unlucky as Reuben (check the blog for the full story, it's a while back) or you could be lucky and get full bandwidth.
As a 4mbit user, you get access to the 4mbit IP range. It's still dynamic, just usually confined to this range. Best thing to do to optimize your connection? Hope and pray for good luck, :p

4mbps is 4 million bits per second. That works out to 488kBytes/sec. (4,000,000 divide by 8, and divide by 1024).
My average torrent speed is 280-320kBytes/sec. I guess that is because torrents overhead - you're client is talking to over 100 peers at the same time.
With FTP there is lower overhead (only 3-4 concurrent downloads), so I get faster speeds at 400-420kByes/sec.
At that speeds, I download more that I can watch.

4mb connection will gonna blow ur mind, if u had money to pay for it.LOL~
with additional BolehVPN package, wow =D

FYI,
4Mbps is just for internal surfing within Malaysia. The speed going out to International sites is on "best-effort" basis.

Heck, internal speed is also on a 'best effort basis'
