Agreed, Cable's plans are horrid and upload SUCKS! I like my near 100kb/s upload speed. :blush:

If my plan was to rise by more than $5 Adam Internet was my next choice.

Still might yet as I have a couple of mates on the same exchange 'communitynet ftw'.

Definitely.. Counting uploads is just arse.

All depends on what you use it for Madaz.. 10gb's shared upload and download definitely isn't much for those with relly's overseas.

In the past I've found I've required the ~15gb for streaming lectures from Uni not to mention remote logins via Xwin32 when programming or working in sql/webservers etc etc.

All becomes fairly bandwidth hungry.

For general usage.. My oldies without 'pirating' scrape in at 8gb per month.

Now they are forced to pay a little more :blush:

They receive and send a hell of a lot of emails with video's attached, msn webcam overseas etc.

For them 10gb with shared upload and download as telstra uses is simply not suitable.

i got telstra cable.....60 bux a month unlimited downloads, speed seems fine. dad and i use at least 10 gig per month between us, plus we split costs anyway. never really had any issues with them either. tech support people are good too

Serity1,

Telstra used to call it unlimited, there was quite a stink about it as it wasn't really unlimited so the term unlimited has been dropped.

The plan you are on is capped over 12gb. Speeds drop to 6.4kb/s.

The bugger is as mentioned earlier in the thread they count uploads towards this 12gb of data block.

But for the majority of users this isn't a problem.

Their upstream bandwidth is ~128kb's for the plan you are on.

Until you try the adsl2 upstream speeds you really don't know what your missing. The faster upstream makes everything work just that little bit quicker. Especially when downloading and doing multiple things at once.

yeah i love the ADSL2, there is no way in hell i'm ever going back to anything with slower uploads and down loads. For work i can use over 20Gb a month downloading all the software, 3dmax, latest photoshop, illustrator ect (company account FTW :thumbsup:)as well as uploading and downloading all the files ect and VOIP for 4-6 hours a night really starts to add up.

still haven't got into any torrent programs. i tried one and it wouldn't work so i gave up.

and i don't get time to play games :thumbsup: every now and again i will have a race of GTR2 or RF but thats about all these days.

still waiting for this elusive SAU LAN that has been bought up a few times but never got passed talking about peoples houses and what they can fit in

    • Based off what you’ve said here, I think I’ve figured out a good bit of what I’ve done wrong -  So on the line going from the PCV valve to carbon canister, there’s a T joint that is pretty much right next to that lower port - I hadn’t noticed that the hose in the diagram was curved to attach onto the carb, so I was putting that line for the lower port onto the PCV line / carbon canister line instead. I’m going to have a flick through the manual again tomorrow and should hopefully find a diagram that’ll show me where that T joint should be connected to. Timing also 100% needs to be sorted out as well, should be able to tackle that tomorrow as well. Definitely feel like I should be on the right track now though. 
    • The screw is for idle (pilot circuit) mixture adjustment. Else, I'm confused ~ the diagram shows 2 carby ports, and the intake manifold port, but you're suggesting the "2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams" ...yet, both carby ports are shown...que?... ...in any event, that port should be connected, but if not (like it is now), it's unlikely to cause a backfire out the carby (it would introduce false air and give you a fast/lean idle) ...sounds more like timing issues/spark plug wire routing responsible for the backfiring.    
    • That's fair, I can see both points. I get enthusiastic when I see the FS section has a new post and want to see what interesting thing someone is selling. Then I get deflated it's a bump of a 10 year old post. Ha ha
    • Couple of litres of moonshine from his southern cousins would do it...
