    OMG.. after being back in Sydney for almost 18 months and just suffering our shit ADSL2 connection, I finally cut back across to Telstra bigswamp cable.. first image TPG ADSL2+.. Second image Telstra Cable.. third image.. tethered off my iphone on 4G with Vodafone.
    I'm just happy not to be suffering speeds like its the early 2000's anymore.. but yep, the upload could do with some improvements.

    • Why the fuck are we spending $60bill on the NBN when you can get G speeds like this?BusterBoy
    • because Fibre to the house would have been dope as shit.. but fucking fairy pants Malcolm capitulated to Rupert Murdoch to protect Foxtel from streaming serviceautoflavour
    • and instead we end up with a substandard system, using out of date technology which we have to keep paying fucking Rupert with on going service fees to accessautoflavour
    • the already outdated and failing cable network.. once in a life time infrastructure project destroyed because of corporate greed and weak willed politiciansautoflavour

    • Yeah fuck this shit. Up to 10th most expensive city in the world, down to 55th fastest internet. Talcy Malcy is a twat.MrT
    • Our office is in North Melbourne 2km from the CBD, and we have to pay $600 / month for 20mbps up and 20 down. So our studio of 12 people can function.slappy
    • I live on Mt Dandenong though and get 48mbps up and 20 down via the NBN. Its good enough even though its expensive still.slappy
    • 48up and 20 down? thats kind of backwards.autoflavour
