Ok I have had ADSL in the past but this blew me away..

This is what I have had..

Started with a 512k ADSL plan with a perth provider and it was awesome! Was downloading at about 55k per second !!

I Then upgraded my plan and got 1.5MB with the same provider.

Was getting about 175k per second downloads!! That was pure joy compaired to my good old 56k beast that would get me 4k if I was lucky!

I then went back to dialup whilst I rented for the past year.

Last week i thought why not I'll do it..

I got ADSL2 setup.

I connect to the internet at 12345k per second ( 12.34mb ) and my upload speed is 1024k per second ( 1mb )

I have hit speeds of 1270k per second!!! And thats not buffered at the start of a file thats average on the iiNET ADSL FTP Speed tests.

OHHH MY GOD!!!

:P

Who else has 12MB ADSL and what speeds are you getting??

I *had* Amnet's 8mb when I was living in East Perth and would regularly get speeds of 800-950k/s from international linux iso sites *cough*

Now I'm back on 1.5mb in Ocean Reef with not really any hope in hell of it being upgraded for DSL2 in the future :P

YOU'RE ALL BASTARDS!

What did you use to test your speeds? I'm in Hillarys and aren't sure which exchange I'm hooked up to.. I'm hoping it's Mullaloo and not ocean Reef!

DL speeds have been around 150-300k/sec.. that would be a 1.5Mb link?

cam just check your settings on your router if your using one..... in your web browser type 10.1.1.1 and login all the settings will come up and it will tell you at what speed your connection is

i'd say yours is just over 1.5mb if your getting between 150-300kb/sec

i'm on 1.5 flat and i get around 120-200kb/sec

Holy shit... rerading this thread makes me cringe... I was on 40mbps at home and 100mbps at work back in Japan :P

Why in the heck does Australia suck at internet so much???

I can have uptp 1gb/sec at work with the flick of a switch :D (God bless Fibre)

But I just have to settle for 15mb Fibre these days :)

    • I had issues with my car today after removing the rear bumper. The headlights aren't working when turning the stalk but high beams are working and the rear tail light where the reverse camera is wired up won't turn on when the stalk is activated, but the reverse camera, tail light indicator and brake light all seem to work. I checked the fuses they aren't blown. I think the reverse camera could have possibly gotten pinched but shouldn't be as there is a decent amount of room. I did use the lights and loom for the license plate from the new bumper but also tested the old one in case but made no difference. This isn't for a skyline also. Any ideas what it could be? It was working when I drove I'm pretty sure, then on my return home I noticed my headlights weren't working.

    • Unless you're fortunate enough to buy a newer car, getting an older style plate to match your name/car is difficult because they've already been purchased.  Unlike other countries, personalised plates are locked to the country and not region, so there can't be multiple versions of the same plate but with a different area code.  Hope that helps
