Haven't had the internet at home since Thursday night and the Telstra techs that came on Thursday said "oh, we're not sure how we can fix this"...I said "yeah that's great...what do I do now?"....they respond "umm...try calling on Monday to speak with someone about it"...
Can't believe this crap! Anywayz, someone came out this morning and fixed the problem as a follow up to the Thursday blunder!
It's amazing how dependant of the internet we can become. You feel 'disconnected' when you don't have it! |

I'm with Iinet also... experience hardly any downtime at all. And they have just increased download limits yet again :D Always a nice surprise.
Edit: we had Optus cable when we lived in a house.. and I would still have it now but Optus suck and won't let me have it connected to my apartment :( |

cable is good..
but depending on what your download sources are, it wouldnt necessarily be affected.. plus download limits are better
im on the 1.5mbit plan with IINET. and whilst its 109.95 a month, its worth every cent for how much i get and where i get my stuff from |

so thats nearly double what i pay for cable... slower than cable.... and who said anything about limits? i've never been capped.
really sounds like its worth the switch over!!
edit: oh and id never go with iinet :) |

I can't get cable where I live :whip:
So I'm stuck with Bigpond ADSL.
It's actually fkn reliable (in year and a half only been of for half a day once), and good speeds too, compared to other providers. |
