As far as I know, there is no 120kbps plan in any ISP. I suppose you are talking about 128 kbps.

Please understand that 128kbps doesn't mean that you will get 128kbps download speed. You need to divide your plan speed by 8 to get your download speed. For your case 128/8=16. So can get a max of 16kbps download. Similarly I have a 256kbps connection, so I get 256/8=32kbps download speed.

Though occasionally you may get more than it, but 99% of the time you will get around it.
