1195610 2011-04-19 22:37:00 Im with slingshot and they were slow about 1 month ago but i get a solid 6.5 down now, still thinking about changing soon also

They are still the cheapest around, but i guess that shows eh Cic

Test just now..........

5.4 do dahs,
next, who knows?, as there is no explanation, it is just a question of take it or leave it.

So true Gob, we get what we pay for.

1195611 2011-04-20 00:42:00 Actrix has been voted the best for the last 6 years.
I have been with them fro about 8 years.

I love their daily data cap
And you get to talk to kiwis.

The OP asked for the best not the cheapest!

here's my speed test with trustpower Kinect.

for some reason, my ping is far higher than usual, although it could be the time of day. my ping is normally around 50.

I am with Slingshot too, my speeds go up and down as well. I thought it was just because of the school hols, or the time of day. Above is my current speed.

LL

To be fair, I am on the periphery, so 5 would do, but .8 ?

1195614 2011-04-20 03:47:00 I am with Slingshot and am getting variation from 5 do dahe, to 0.85 do dahs and have had a gutsful, so which one do we we use today.?

Not Telstra Clear Cicero :yuck: I am with the plonkers and get half of your speed, and am closer to an adsl2+ exchange. It could be Telecom's fault for not letting TelstraClear customers through without throttling them at the exchange. I have never been above 2.5 do dahs.

I'm on Telstra's cheapest that they don't do any more. Apparently, if I want to use, for example, Slingshot, I have to migrate thru' a Telecom account first (at least that's my recollections of the conversations I had a few months ago). No throttling back tho'!!

If they throttled that back, you wouldn't have been able to post your message. I thought mine was bad!

I can run faster than that.

Poor old J, and I was giving Telsta some thought, you have put paid to that.

1195619 2011-04-20 07:20:00 Telecom is fine here but there are many factors to consider.
