ADSL 2+ is the way to go, and you can get a naked plan if you really do not want a home phone too...

In case anyone is interested you can test your network speed using http://www.speedtest.net/


This is the speed from my office - yeah not that crash hot for a business network...

I'm actually switching over to Exetel / TPG DSL2+ soon, cos' they're plans seem to be the best bang for the buck as far as limits and peak hours go...

Anyone heard any bad things about either of these providers? So far i haven't heard anything bad besides some random short downtimes (what isp doesn't).

I went with TPG for the same reason.

I'm still stuck in the dark ages with adsl 1 as i go through a sub exchange or some bullshit. But i still get close to 7000 down on a good day. The problem with all the adsl 1 plans is that you pay the same for say 18gig as you do for 40 on an adsl 2 plan :x

im on tpg adsl2+ 30gig capped for $60/month. im happy with it but the speeds arent anything to get excited over but i think im a fair way from the exchange because a mate who is closer to the exchange gets MUCH better speeds...

Live in southern side of Parra, going through Granville exchange.

This is one of my better results (note this result in kB so d/l = 10383kb u/l = 686kb

And here is one as of now (no, now!)

Image

This is with exetel adsl2 and phone bundle for $45 a month. 12gb peak period (midday to midnight) and 48gb off peak.

That's pretty much the plan i was thinkin of signing up on, except it's only $70, not $80 o_o , and considering the exchange from my place isn't too far away (I'm close to the edensor park exchange) i should get pretty nice speeds... i'm still stuck on 1.5mbps DSL1, and can get a MUCH larger limit and gain a significant speed increase by switching to dsl 2 with tpg, and it's the same price i'm paying for dsl1 with only 60gb dl limit...

Either way, Good feedback! I think TPG will be getting a call from me soon :D

i'm on the same plan and hate it, always go over limit but the speed is pretty good. i might switch to the one $69 one.

on a side note, the modems that tpg supplies for free with the package are shit. they overheat all the time and you have let them cool down before you can restart them.

Ah, i have no plans of gettin a modem package with my bundle... i never have and probably never will... i'd prefer to just go out and buy my own choice modem + switch combined, and spend the extra few $ on the exact one i want than get one with the isp just cos it's what they recommend..
