[Waverley ARS] RE- ISP bandwidth

[Binu VU2NGB]

My ISP is internode on their  HOME-Extreme-Value plan paying $60/month and 
getting 20GB download..
I just did the speed test and the result is 5770 / 874 (Kbps) when tested 
with the ISP and with a server in CA, it was 1532 / 798(Kbps).
You can do speed tests at http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest

So far I am very happy with the service. Less down time compared to iiNet 
(old Ozemail) and ADSL2+ is good too
even though I am more than 3km away from the exchange.

You can compare the prices against the service at

Cheers,
Binu
