I got out of the contract with Telstra/Foxtel via the communications ombudsman and went back to Adam, and my speeds went straight back up. From this I can only deduce that Telstra do not have the bandwidth to satisfactorily supply their customers. BTW my speeds during those peak times dropped to nearly dial-up speeds.
I will NEVER use Telstra again for Internet, they are totally shonky and told me all sorts of blatant lies...  |
But Peter, wouldn't Adam still be using the same hardware etc that Telstra use. So regardless of who your ISP is, the service is still using exactly the same wires with the same bandwidth limitation all the way to the exchange.
What I mean is that you mention Telstra bandwidth being inadequate. But your signal is still going down the same over-crowded Telstra wires even when you're with Adam!
Have I got that right? I'm not the world's most techy, so I'm probably missing some important concept here
