I've been with iinet for a decade now and the quality of the adsl service has been pretty crap lately, with problems, slow downloads, or complete loss of service. http://www.speedtest.net/ also shows it to have some of the slowest download speeds in sydney of the major ISP's:

Oh wow, Even the slowest of these is twice as fast as I get with Telstra 8k from the CBD here in Perth!

On a great day which is very rare, 3mbps is tops, - but mostly it comes and goes and reaches as slow as 200kbps download and 50kbps upload.

And 'yes' this is an adsl2+ connection!

Go figure, - how pathetic is that for a capital city and so close to the CBD?
