Ha ha, sucked in. I knew it sounded too good to be true, too good to 
last. how could they do it when everyone else had to have prices based 
on speed? it was a marketing ploy to get ppl to sign up. and there's 
more bad news. I saw (somewhere) that in early November they will be 
reverting to capped speed plans just like everyone else, which means I 
assume, that unless you are on a contract you will have to choose a new plan

Everyone else doesn’t.

Nope.

That's because nobody else in Griffith was stupid enough to sign up with 
them.

You're wrong, as always. All but one of my mates has.

And it’s the POI that matters, not the town, you pig ignorant fuckwit pom.

And when the downloads did for a while sag down to 5 at peak times before
they added more CVC, there clearly must have been plenty using them anyway.

10ms, 80Mbps download, 35Mbps upload. 16:00-ish Thursday.

Not too shabby. That's on WiFi. Is a little faster (cracked 90Mbps) on direct cable, but not set up at the moment. 
Notebooks these days don't support RJ-45s.

That's on Optus NBN, all the way with fiber optic cable, and paying the top tier.

Pity I retired. So many years of dial up, and slow connections. Now I don't need fast, I have fast.

Cheers Don...
