Whats the best isp to get around Victoria or such...

looking to have more then 150kb/sec

Thanks

Persius · 04-02-2005, 06:48 PM

no one?

Odin88 · 04-02-2005, 06:51 PM

tpg.com.au

Nurgle · 04-02-2005, 06:53 PM

tpg is the last one you would want.. look for the ones like iinet/internode and the like that offer ADSL2 at your exchange

also check out http://www.whirlpool.net.au .. has good info there

Juggernaut · 04-02-2005, 06:54 PM

I would suggest you do some research:

TPG is a good choice, but it really does depend on how long you intend on using the service, and if your choice is business or personal.

BlueQuartz · 04-02-2005, 07:37 PM

internode is preety good
i have used them and recommend them

telstra sux , we all know that hehe

nekrom · 04-02-2005, 07:45 PM

Yeah haha avoid Telstra like the plague.

I'm curently with Netspace and before that was with Internode. Both fine companies.

dunefield · 04-02-2005, 09:38 PM

optus is decent cable... pretty reliable... thats what i'm with..

wdforty · 04-02-2005, 10:15 PM

http://www.iinet.com.au/broadband/

upto 8mbit

Odin88 · 04-03-2005, 01:58 AM

tpg is fine for me. needed unlimited fast internet access (basically everyone curves your speed after too many downloads). I signed up with tpg about a year ago and seriously have no complaints. Always fast, always on. Though I am sure if you're a heavy gamer geek or something you might find something to whinge about, I don't know.

Steen2 · 04-03-2005, 02:00 AM

Can I move to AU?

Rhesus · 04-03-2005, 02:06 AM

what are you gonna do in oz if I may ask?

AdultMovies.bz · 04-03-2005, 02:08 AM

IPrimus is pretty good

I second this.

I'm patiently waiting for my DSLAM exchange to be enabled sometime in the next 3 months so I can get iinet. I can't fucking wait.

montel · 04-03-2005, 03:38 AM

optus cable is reliable and fast. may not be cheapest but it wont fuck up like all the adsl i have used do.

uno · 04-03-2005, 03:40 AM

Moving to oz?

quantum-x · 04-03-2005, 03:45 AM

iiNet.
8mBit ADSL, 60GB cap.

it's good. I'm a few hundred meters from the exchange, I can get 7.8MBit.

wdforty · 04-03-2005, 03:47 AM

My DSLAM is getting rolled out Q2.. I can't wait.

rowan · 04-03-2005, 05:59 AM

I was waiting around for 4 months for Telstra to find a copper path back to the exchange... eventually they just installed DSL capable equipment in my local RIM.

Looks like I'll be stuck with Telstra for a while, unless iinet and internode are also allowed to co-locate in the local cabinet on the street.

ClamSmacker · 04-03-2005, 06:03 AM

iinet is great.

imafuckingaussie · 04-03-2005, 06:10 AM

Hate to tell you, but dont get too excited, adsl sucks here, I have internode, but dont think you will have cable like speed, I think it's shit. You cant get anything to stream smoothly.

Yah really I feel like an ass now. I bitch about having to pay £40 for 2mbit DSL.. when swedish pay $40 for 10mbit... then theres the poor aussies who pay £40-50 for a 1-8mbit connection with a cap of about 0.2mbit [download per month]

Same. Plenty of variants in Ozzie.
