Congestion just means they don't have enough backhaul to provide the service... Modem means there's a fault and they can't provide the promised service.

Either way, you're not getting what you paid for, but it's Telstra... They used to have the monopoly on comms infrastructure... but with NBN ramping up thats going to change soon. So good luck getting them to spend money to maintain their soon to be unprofitable network.

Yup and with the abandonment of Optus cable infrastructure, you will need to wait for Nbn's fibre to the curb.

However I believe Telstra cable infrastructure will be upgraded to Nbn's hybrid fibre coax

For those that don't have me on FB but want to know what Supermoto is all about made a video of the track day over the weekend :)

Basically a dirt bike with slicks or road tyres on a dirt / road track, so riding on the dirt is sketchy af and can't use any front brake.

Had to get puncture sorted out today, the guys that swapped tyres onto my new rims pulled out a screw that I had on a tyre, it filled it up and left it saying she'll be right, nek day take it back to get plugged.. zzz 

I would of thought if I could tell something was wrong, they would be able to tell but eh.

88e going back down again eh 

things are a bit shakey in the states, with the election and wall street scares. Couple that with british pound still on the fall, oil price retrace because some people think this OPEC agreement will achieve nothing. The other thing (which may or may not be true) is the upcoming announcement potential dates are a bit vague so people looking to jump on the bandwagon may not wanna tie up their money for potentially weeks. 88e team mentioned theyre more interested in stabilising share price than playing a game of hype and peaks/troughs.

and then theres hotcopper... where everyone is circle-jerking each other and putting themselves through financial hardship to fund "the greatest investment opportunity in all existence" while being firm that all patience pays off (regardless of how long that takes).

Yeah aussie internet really sucks dick.
Even in the middle of buttf**k nowhere when I was in Vietnam on guest wifi was getting 50mbps up / 50mbps down

Except that Australia is 23x bigger than Vietnam with 93million people vs our 20mill.
My 24 month NBN contract is about to run out. All this talk of shitty internet just reminded me I have to shop around.

All internet providers use the same cabling/infrastructure if you are in a NBN zone.

Think of isps as owning a lane on a freeway. Although a multi-lane freeway has been built, if dodo has only paid for 1-lane it will get congested at peak-hour. Whilst Telstra could have 3 lanes to itself.

Take that argument up with your isp. Technology exists for gigabit speeds & the backhaul is built for it. Supply & demand - and the isp's have lost a chunk of their profit since they don't own the network anymore

True, best most of our customers have is like a telstra 50/50 or 100/100 which cost em an arm and a leg

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
