I Less Than Three ADSL2
Tuesday 24 April 2007Well as much as I dislike TPG lately, they gave us a free upgrade to ADSL 2, for 10bucks cheaper than what we were paying with an additional 5GB on our Download cap. (Taking it to 30GB.)(I’m sure theres some catch but I don’t pay for it so thats Mum’s problem.)
Our average connection speed is around about 5Mbps according to OzSpeedTest with a average Download speed of 600Kbps. (Based on the 15MB file test, which I ran 5 times at various times of the day using the TPG Mirror). I managed to download the C&C 3 Demo (from the Internode Games Network, 1.2GB) in just over 30minutes at an average speed of 580Kbps which was a pleasant surprise.
I know in my previous post I said we would probably go with Internode, but well I found out we can’t so I’ll have live with this for a little while longer, ah wells as long as it stays connected like its supposed to I’ll be happy.
Well enough rambling I’m gonna see how long it takes me to download 30GB worth of crap.
