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

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 :)

      Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
