I have connected with telstra mainly due to to them being a primary backbone, So far it's paying off very nicely.
A pricey connection but a very high speed, consistent and reliable connectyion and no hassles having to pay "convenicence fees" to Telecom.
Youtube is always perfectly usable though second life (I'm not a fan but it's a good test) is only "usable" (and fun to hack)
Games are rock solid and interleaving is switched OFF
I am a user whom does not share or download so my usage might be different to the "leechers" though I do a lot of ripping of legal media services.
National traffic is 6Mbps, 500up
International is always at LEAST 500k both ways, this is at 7:30, aka PEAK time.
Post ISP's and min/max results please! I'm curious to see if any cheaper ones offer similarly good performance.
