Here's one done just now . That is the average speed during "prime time" when the average person browses the net (afternoon/evening) .

Meh!

I get that speed (and better) on my HTC Sensation .

Even faster on the wired BB at home - nice shiny new cabinet at the end of the street . . .

1219203 2011-07-26 11:08:00 Ideal... 40GB between 6 - 7 people is getting to be not quite enough these days, 60 will be great. wratterus (105)

1219207 2011-07-26 17:24:00 Yea unlimited sure is great. I used to think i was on unlimited, then management for the student accomodation suddenly went "lol u guys have a cap and you just went over!". A lot of people got their internet access removed with no warning.

Now i have to use a bandwidth monitor. Viewing a single lecture recording alone is 100+ MB. If you do any kind of serious research work it probably goes much higher. I honestly have no idea how people use only a few GB per month. Maybe they just use it to check emails.
Question (15792)
1219208 2011-07-26 20:56:00 Trustpower Kinect has NO data caps .

Since we changed from telstraclear, we no longer have to worry about data caps .

The data carries over if unused, but you have you electricity bundled with them as well and that is more expensive than the competition

1219209 2011-07-26 22:18:00 Orcon has been fairly decent. Only reason I would change is for more data. Service is excellent here though, so probably not.

I just want to get on the GPON cable that runs 6m behind my house. Telecom say its "testing" but screw that, it comes out of a development that currently use it :drool
