Hi, for the last few months my Slingshot Unlimited Dial Up plan has been frustratingly slow.

The last four or so months it has rarely connected at the speed it had been before the slow speeds ( 50.6 kbps ). Now its frequently connecting at about 30kpbs, or even as low at around 18kbps.

Im so sick of having to put up with these ridiculous speeds and waiting for minutes to load a single page.

I am going to convert to broadband soon, However i'm wondering if when I get broadband the speeds with still be pathetic like I getting now.

What could be causing these slow speeds? and what can I do to fix it, if anything? And Will my broadband be affected in the same way? Oh And Im living in christchurch.

Cheers.
