don't upload excessively from P2P programs.
They will ban your account.

and make sure your computer is more or less spyware free.
Somehow that will relate to a banned account

It really depends my last few figures for uploads has bordered on 50-75 Gbs a month rofl

 

[fatmuscle]

I hate the Optus upload speeds
so damn slow.

 

[SashatheMan]

i get my upload limit on limewire to 2 KBs lol so i dont get too much .

how do i check how much i uploaded already? i can check how much i downloaded by going to optus site i know that

 

[acmilan]

grr i need to get a new router now to use wireless since my current one only supports adsl. Anyone interested in a linksys wireless g router/adsl modem, i may have to sell it if i cant find my receipt.

Well, as soon as DOCSIS 2 or even 3 is implemented it should fix the problems right up

You're missing the point, being that your upload is 1/8th what his is.
