AlphA Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 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!!! Who else has 12MB ADSL and what speeds are you getting??

caminperth Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 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?
