Tried to transcribe the Klingon ad:
HI'Ij tera'nganpu' puj!
yIQoj! yIbangQo'!
mu'tlheghvam yIjatlh 'ej wa'vatlh DeQmey DaHev
*Internode* DaqI'chugh, cha'maH loS jarmey *broadband* nabvaD [wIvpu'].
The last word, [wIvpu'], is in the TV ad but not the radio ad.
So, it's definitely not flawless Klingon, but it's still clear that they made an honest effort with it (paying attention to prefixes and suffixes, adjectives follow nouns...), and didn't use Bing or MrKlingon, which I think definitely earns them a {maj!}.
In particular, props to the actor!
