well its taken a month, a bunch of headaches and more questions than answers, but my telstra cable is finally setup.

comparison:

Is it worth the trouble and an extra $10 a month? if it can maintain over 10mb/s 24/7 then yes.

The provided modem/router is pretty useless... wont tell you speeds or chart usage or even let you change login username (wtf, stuck on admin forever). Now just to figure out if I can use my Fritzbox for Wifi only...

I wonder what the IT section at Telstra is like....

Would it be filled with ex-public servants who just dont give a fark and do nothing all day.

Or would it be generally younger IT personnel who just dont give a fark and do nothing all day.

Or would it be a small team of extremely over-worked individuals that are constantly putting out fires and trying to resolve the countless issues that arise? 

 

 

What Department?

This image is showing 13Mbps, not 13MBps...

8 Megabit = 1 MegaByte

The plan you are on is a 30Mbps plan and you're achieving 13Mbps.

Either there is a problem with your connection or there's congestion in your area at the time of testing... Try again later and see if it hits the full speed.

This is what a 30Mbps plan should look like:

100Mbps plan should cap out at about 115... Either way you're not likely to see the difference in the two speeds unless you download a lot of big files (not talking about torrents), or need additional upload speed (the 100Mbps plan caps out at ~2.4Mbps up instead of ~1.2)

So is this shit? Never been impressed by our internet speeds and we have had this Optus Cable for the last 6+ years.

Steam displays speeds in MBps... 2.9Mbps x 8 = 23.2Mbps = edging closer towards your 35'ish maximum.

Try http://speedof.me/ and see what result that spits out... I find its a bit more accurate, and doesn't require flash either.

Also when testing, make sure nothing else on your network is download anything... and don't be on wireless if you want an accurate result.

12.5mb/s is 100mbps - that's a good speed. Can't get faster on cable.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
