u live next door to the exchange?

He doesn't but I do, about 50m away.

Sure do get ridiculous speeds. With my cap I can do about 110gig on my 40gig plan, 70 of those gigs in the time the server realises Im over my limit and caps me.

:laugh:

Gayarena. :laugh:

Leeman, grab it from internode. No registration required.

Australian patch

For those that for what ever reason have the other euro or us release of the game.

Telstra do have more bandwidth than Internode BUT they have to share it amongst a hell of a lot more noob users (mums, dads, grandma's grandpa's etc whom think because its telstra it must be better).

This results in less available bandwidth per head than Internode offers.

GA has faster file servers for your self because you are with GA. If you can't suck off internodes file servers at full speed then the problem is the link between internode and GA.

The only thing Bigpong has going for it is cable, thats if your one of the luck 1% who are able to get it. :(

I'm all for Internode as they come across to myself as an enthuiasts ISP who has a pashion for developing/improving broadband in Australia. Annex-M is a prime example. Tesltra.. They were trying to cripple Aus.

Another thing I like. Simon the owner of Internode participates on Whirlpool and lets every one know whats going on. :P

I guess that makes me a fanboi! :P lmao

I'd rather be sharing with noobs and grandpas. You know why? Because less people would be Torrenting/Dling, which chews up bandwidth hardcore!

The problem is its the kids that do all the torrenting etc.. So not completely true.

I know lots of noobs (whom I do regular computer upgrades, computer repairs etc) and its their kids that use emule, piolet and torrents and the worse thing, piolet for example defaults to boot when the system starts, so constantly sucking bandwidth.

In the US. Who do you hear of being pinched for dloading music etc.. Teens living at home with their parents.

Telstra is expensive. Unless your on cable *even then its debatable* one would be silly to stick with them.

If all goes as planned I will be moving ~500m away from the exchange down at Moana. :P

So ADSL2+ 24mbit here I come. :(

For those wishing to see the location of their phone exchange....

Telstra's unlimited plan on cable....

Unlimited referring to either :

a) the 10 gig limit

b) the uploads counting as downloads

Sounds like a great deal to me...:P

uploads only mater if they count if your a leech monkey 80% of my monthly downloads come from GA game demos movie trailers patches and general forum stuff

good to hear leeman

I use my upstream for remote desktop, email and web server and the occasional p2p on a private site.

I hardly use p2p, maybe 1 or 2GB per month if that. Doing my general bits and pieces I use ~15gb per month. I'm not really in to game demo's, movie trailers etc. I have been dloading quite a few linux distro's of late though. Linux is still very clunky for an everyday os, great for a server though.

Either way.. Internode ROXORS!! BIGPONG SUXORS!!! :(

I should also mention Internode peer with youtube, microsoft, google and a shit load of other places. So speeds are as quick and reliable as technically possible.

Unsure exactly who Telstra peers with as they don't tell anyone. :P

    • (Rb25det intake manifold) I’m having a hell of a time trying to find the full part or part number of this coolant hardline so far I was given these (Below) but they aren’t what I’m looking for and was told it’s the IAR or aac valve but that doesn’t seem to be it either. If someone could point me in the right direction it’d be greatly appreciated. Or if anyone has it for sale that’d be great too. I have recently purchased a greddy manifold and I can’t seem to find my old one to pull it off.  (Front Heater Return / Water Pipe (under intake): Primary part: 14053‑21U10 (front return pipe assembly for R33/R34 RB25DET) Alternative listing: 14053‑21U00 (same pipe, sometimes interchangeably referenced)   Heater Feed Pipe: Listed as 14075‑04U00 or feed-related variant 14053‑AG500)    
    • This sounds cool. But, as per usual, anything really complicated like that, that I take on, constitutes a steep learning curve that I never actually "learn". I just get it working, install it and start using it. Then, when it breaks a few months later, I've got no memory of what I did, how I did it, or even the bloody IP address I gave it. I'm having more or less exactly that problem right now. My Proxmox machine was discovered to be non-responsive, and the VMs on it were ditto. Power cycle it to a stream of loud Dell beep codes - which was unpopular at midnight, I can tell you. Move it to the lounge room so I can HDMI it to the TV for a screen, see the boot messages complaining about the /PVE/data having all sorts of LVM problems, saying it needs to be fixed manually. And I'm like....great. How am I going to work out what I need to do? At least it wasn't the stupid Silicon Power SSD shat itself. Mental note for all readers - DO NOT BUY SP SSDS! They are shit. I have had one take out an entire VM setup already, and this one could have done the same. Maybe it actually has. Cheap Chinesium shitbaskets. I won't cheap out again, even on play projects with no budget. Because my time budget having to fix shit is worth far more than the cost of proper parts.
    • I do typically agree. These days even the screens most people use have more of a boot time than the main device. However, I've seen an interesting use of the RPi in vehicle, however it involves effectively building your own OS and MBR, as then it boots up exceptionally quickly, as you don't have everything needing to start up, and you can then also run it up as an RTOS, while still having more compute than an Android can give for things like display, and processing. A very huge task that would be though for Duncan, I'm not sure that's his skill set (or Arduino programming and wiring) ha ha. If end goal is definitely just water cooling, Arduino would be the simpler setup especially for a rookie. If he wants extra display stuff though, bashing some code in Python on an RPi may be the better result for both systems.   Unfortunately the new device I'm building at work which runs a display, is too slow of a display for dashboard style purposes. More extreme low power, update only a couple of times a day type system
    • I don't like "actual computers" for in car use. They take time to boot up, have OS annoyances, and so on. Arduinos etc are ready to go a few seconds after power on, don't mind being agressively powere cycled, because everything is non-volatile, don't mind being shaken and stirred.
    • As Fred would tell us, it's all about interpreting the rules. It's not a water sprayer, it's a water mister... But everything else you've said, 100%! Even a raspberry Pi would be great, use HDMI out for a display, and add a raspberry Pi CANBus hat to read values out from the ECU.
