Is that ADSL? If it's 2 up/2 down, is that not SDSL?

While A in ADSL stands for Asymmetrical, it is primarily name of the used DMT-based technology, S(H)DSL is completely different thing (in fact it is related to 1000-Base-T, but with significantly smaller symbol rate) that does not work across non-dedicated lines (and usually needs carefully selected pairs to work reliably).
