How many people on telecom end up with 64k connections after going over their caps? Thats beyond a joke if you ask me! I've been asked by someone why their computers are sooooo f**king slow when in fact its because they have blown their telecom cap and are basically @ 56k speeds (if that) At least make it still useable when someone goes over their cap.

One of the 'slow' computers was a brand new i5 System I had just had them built / OT

ADSL2+ on an unlimited data plan, no interleaving and on the non data managed IP pool.

I don't download much except a bit of TV series.
Game a lot though, moderately high ranked PVP in world of warcraft

what ISP's are you guys on for ADSL2 unlimited data plans?

I can't believe theres anyone still using dial up.

I’m on bigtime with Telecom, not too far from Luke with 12mbps down and 1mb up – torrents are between 8 and 400 KB/s from 9am til 2am but you can still do a solid 10+gb a night (if you don’t run out of HD space like I have).
Unlimited is pretty good to have – I uploaded 80gb or so before the usage meters broke.

It’s balls for gaming though, ping can vary greatly.

It was after seeing your sig, and seeing a thread that met the criteria of your sig that made me think of posting this

Hah, I thought it was a strange coincidence. I apologise to the 2 people who are still suffering on dial up for my comments

I don't! Get with the time you hippies

Maybe we should setup a wireless connection between our houses

Lol - could set up an Asian porn syndicate you reckon?


The interesting thing is that as far as I can tell we haven't been cabineted so in a few months I should be up to 15+mbps with much lower attenuation than I currently have.

Dial up at home, hence why I choose not to go online at home

where is the option in this poll for 'slower connection than dail-up' ???

that would be me! even this forum is a 5 min mish to load 1 page...and don't even get most of the pictures...and this from a satellite connection...

can't wait to get back to uni!!

ewwww wow

I can't afford a phone line let alone internet. Have to borrow the net at my brothers or my girlfriends places. They both have broadband.

But you can afford two skylines... go figure...
