Ech. We don't get any decent broadband service around where I have moved. I'm stuck with this bloody Verizon card for the time being, which blows since there's a 5GB monthly transfer limit so I have to be careful of what sites I visit. :/

NEVER go with Telstra/Bigpond, Chloe, they are the most overpriced, useless and moronic company. Ever.



Internode is the best ISP in Australia hands down.

You upload sucks, Ricki. Switch to Internode, it's cheaper and better.

It's pretty good today, I've had a lot of trouble with my net a few months back. It's also 4am, so that helps.
Downside is I get capped at 25-30Gb.

I've got a 55gig quota + free uploads + free Steam downloads + free Usenet downloads, which is just fucking awesome. It's funny to see that an Aussie ISP has the best rating so far.

@Fetter,
Do you have some kind of business plan with Comcast? I had no idea that they offered 2.5mbps upload connections.

Also, do you have the 300GB limit?

No, I don't. I got the mid-level connection from them, have no idea why the upload is so high. It's good to have though.

Also, do you have the 300GB limit?
As far as I know, no. I broadcast videos daily for usually several hours at a time, so I either haven't tapped the limit yet, or there isn't one.


Maybe westcoast service is different. :/
