wohooo!

I think I'm on my new 1.5 M broadband plan already! :) I was downloading my [livejournal.com profile] caitlin45's phone post before, and instead of it peaking at 27 to 30 M it was up at 102, 103 wohoo! :)
Now I can have better ventrilo on those damn higher sample rate servers. Lol and ya know .. like, wow! like yeah?! :)
it's good though cos I'm still paying exactly the same amount I was before. I have a 20 G a month download limit (which I probably won't use) but if I do it will only throttle back to 64 K so that's not bad! now I am on the same wave as the optus cable users in that regard, yeah to that! it's about time I feel someone else's pain I guess Lol haha!
Til Next time, RdFreak

Congrats!

may i ask how much you are paying for your broadband?
im thinking about switching from dialup when i get back to Australia.

however, i think its absolute bullshit that there are download limits on high speed internet...... here, we are on cable with NO restrictions at alll. its great.

ah how much are you paying for that? wow! I am with tpg (who I was also with for dialup before hand :) I am on the 1.5 M plan now whereas before, i was only on the 256 plan. I'm paying 49.95 a month. I am not sure if this is exactly the cheapest; I am not really good at looking around!

i have no idea how much we are paying... gina says "im not sure. more than we should"

are you locked into a contract at all?

my dialup in australia is only $25 a month, unlimited download. and i can also leave for 3 months, and not have to pay any extra fees when i return. so i dont know if i will be able to beat that :/
i mean, it *Is* dialup..... but i dont think it will be worth me switching to broadband.
