NOT f**kING HAPPY!

Signed up to 3 mobile broadband as they promised d/l speeds better than my ADSL1 connection at home for a better price.

This is the result:

What a load of f**king crap. They will be getting an earful from me tomorrow

Not happy JAN!!!

Ignore speed tests they are a load of crap.

Dload from a mirror to find out your true dload speed.

That speed test reads lower than what I really dload at by approx 50-80kbytes/s.

Remember you do have a 30day trial if you like to call it that. :blink:

Yep agree with the file mirror thing, the Internode speed test even tells you to do that if you have a fast connection. 2150kb/s here

LOL @ 100m exchange on ADSL2+, too bad you need like 5 torrents going to reach that speed.

lol yeah speed tests arnt too bad an indication but definitely don't hold as gospel

[*Test Results*]

----------------------------------

Test run on [*15/09/2007*] @ [*03:01 PM*]

Mirror: [*Telstra Bigpond*]

Data: [*9 MB*]

Test Time: [*5.25 secs*]

Your line speed is [*14.4 Mbps*] (14398 kbps).

Your download speed is [*1.76 MB/s*] (1800 KB/s)

and yes Hillzy M3 isn't easy not like Need For Speed

Well, I tried my wireless here at work today (city, east side) and speeds are 800kbps and a download speed of ~70kbps.. Seems the reception is just rat shit at my house :)

So looks like I need to keep paying for line rental and ADSL1 :action-smiley-069:

Unfortunately NO. our house is on a RIM service, ie. it's multiplexed at our suburb before being taken back to the main exchange. This doesnt allow ADSL2+ unfortunatley, but we CAN get ADSL1 (which is something).

I was hoping to can home line rental ($25 per month) and land line ADSL ($40pm for same speed, $65 total) and just pay for wireless at $30 per month, to save some money.

BUT looks like the internet gods have said no LOL.

    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 馃槩 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
    • meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
