I did put quotes around complains. I even complain I only get 13Mbs at about 2Km from the exchange.

Another workmate lives in Thornleigh about 3Km from the exchange - as the crow flies. It is well over 5Km the way the wires run. For ages Telstra would not let them have ADSL1 because they could not provide the minimal bandwidth.

He had to get ISDN to run his home office. ADSL2+'s better resilliance means they now have both ASDL and ISDN, but he'd say your 6Mbs was luxury.
