Still a crapfest at my place, still getting dropouts, on average 5 a day. Not bloody impressed. A NBN tech was supposed to come around on Thursday, did not happen, for some reason it was cancelled and I was not notified. Now supposed to be coming on Monday, not holding my breath on that either. It is not the modem that is at fault, as I have exactly the same issue with the IINet supplied unit and the latest all singing all dancing Billion 8700VAX which gets a great write up on Whirlpool. It would be very interesting to see if it still happened with another ISP.
