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

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.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
