    Just a little something to do,
    Post your net speed,
    Tell us a little about your provider, an your experience with them,

    I use a local company called Matilda internet, I have a 125gig plan with a phone bundle (never use the phone but was cheaper) they don't count uploads witch is good, they speed cap torrents (not that i torrent).;)

    I have only just got hooked up before christmas an for that time of the year it took them 2 weeks from signing up to being connected, best thing about being a local company is they only have a small staff so you always talk to a person an problems are usually resolve straight away or close to it.

    The speed test below is my average speed that i get all the time,:)

    Mine seems to think I am with Westnet.. Which I am not as I am with IINET.. Perhaps it is because they own Westnet !!

    Here's my wonderful ADSL2+
    7ks from the Goodna exchange. Telstra tell me the exchange is conjested and needs upgrading. I wish they'd bloody hurry up.
    The ping of 241 is not as bad as it usually is. Usually around 450 to 500. Makes gaming impossible.
    Now lets see someone beat that!!

    Not to bad considering I am playing a game, have music streaming and stuffing around on the iPhone, like FoS I am regional so on Telstra hardware, they have dropped my speeds back though from when I went to ADSL2+, used to get 18Mb/s :(
