You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

so ISP is internode. happily had 10Mbps download speeds when in clayton. hit 1.1meg a second with steam

have moved to rowville, my plan was not available so had to switch to a different one. have had nothing faster than 430kbps download. router says 4.3Mbps constant. doesnt change with peak load.

before contacting ISP support i plugged router to port in a different room (only 2 in the house) and speed jumped to 7.1Mbps and downloading 720kbps with steam.

house has an old foxtel connection from the street which isnt in use and no home phone. is there anything i can do to get faster? why would the other port be so much slower?

Can be crappy wiring in the house... ring topology on the internal wiring etc... Should always plug in ADSL2+ Modems to the First point in the house, and make sure that the other points are wired in a manner which works well with ADSL (aka. Not how a lot of Phone Wiring was done by people 20 years ago)

Distance from exchange, estimated cable length and estimated speed when doing an address lookup on www.adsl2exchanges.com.au ?

under 1500m as the crow flies. dunno about cable...

Should be getting decent speeds at that sort of distance, the copper cabling in Wantirna isn't toooo broken down compared to other areas.

Meanwhile Telstra still bullshitting me about getting me swapped over to an ADSL2 port in the Boronia exchange that I know they don't have.

Actually told me on the phone that I might have to wait for another customer in Boronia to die / disconnect from their ADSL2 service, in order to free up a port for me. I said what is this, the MCC? Still can't give me an eta for when a technician will get out there and solve it.

My prediction: after weeks and weeks they will eventually get a technician out there to report back (and not tell me, I'm sure I'll have to call) that they don't actually have ADSL2 ports, only Spintel and some other mob do, and bad luck for me...aka something I was able to establish from a quick google.

yeah but if there was a 3-4gbps loss just in the plug choice... it could be f**king anything just on the property.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.

      List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By tylink720 · Posted

      @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
