If you care about the speed of the service,
you can do a lot better than with Optarse
and FTTB will be able to deliver it.

Optus seem to be on the better end of the scale.  Seems like you could 
do a lot worse.

I don't want to go for one of the cheapo telcos anymore.  I was with OVO 
for mobile broadband and was very irritated with their website for 
account management etc.

Nope. That fool turdbull is the one that was stupid

I was talking about their own account management websites. I'm on
Telstra mobile broadband (this month) and don't see any increased
lag since the DNS block (which does work, the DNS resolves to
101.167.166.53 (http://101.167.166.53/)).

Testing the DNS resolution time using the "ping" command, the
IP address seems to be returned quite soon enough.
