Go to TPG and check if you can get the unlimited ADSL connection. Not available in all areas, though. (it's not in mine. Fuckin' bullshit.)

I only know of this from the cake thread. Full credit goes to that.

Yeah sometimes, really annoying, last month was on 100GB plan, used up all of it 15 days before the new billing month. It was torture!!!!!!! so now this month i'm on 130 GB.

its not that bad 2-8am, just stick torrents or something on at night works well.

10 Mbps raw speeds? :/

My net sucks, i'm like 3.5-4km from the exchange... and getting like 180~kbps, really does suck.

I get like 1.2 MBps from Aussie SourceForge mirrors so yeah... 1.2 MBps = 9.6 Mbps
