Fucking ADSL and Slingshot

yes i agree, wireless is the future.

what sorta ping times do you get during those speeds above though?

never tested it, right now though it said 312ms

not a gamer so not bothered about ping time.

It's a pity I didn't see this thread earlier, I changed my xtra boardband plan from the adventure plan $59.95 to the Go large plan $49.95. I thought I'd save myself $10 month and get UNLEASHED full speed. What a fuckin mistake that was. My speed since changing has dropped to as low as 14.k. I was getting 120k to 128k on my old plan. Now after giving the xtra help desk a call I supposely have to run some speed tests over three days. I told them why the hell should I have to do that. It was going fine the day before I switched to this shit new plan, can I go back to my old plan. I was told I can't as they are fazing them out. They did suggest I could try the next plan up $79.95 for the Pro plan. What the fuck!!!

Two more months and I giving it the boot anyway.

played around with the adsl this evening, moving it about the house (specifically to the first wall socket on the circuit), managed to get 600kbits upload and hit 3 mbits download.

have deduced/decided to spend the weekend replacing all the phone wires in the house (oh spiders and spider webs oh joy oh joy!)
