i would pay 300 a month for adsl2+ annex m with a large quota.....

1.7MB/s is more then 10Mbit also. Whats your host on?

wouldn't ever pay more than "00. concidering what others can get in other countries.

like i found out in singapore. unlimited 8mbit for $50 a month. why should i pay "30 for 40gb?

would be nice having this connection at home though :P

I used to get those speeds here in Darwin at a clients site....

Then they moved the link to Melbourne, now the Darwin site has to go thru Melbourne and it'd be lucky to meet 1.5mbit ADSL.

Yeah, **** $300 a month, you guys are crazy :/

I'd pay "00 for a service that should have been upgraded to international level decades ago.

Im sick of paying "00 a month to be on par with other country's $40 a month plans.

At my old address with internode I was paying $60 a month for 1.8MB/sec speeds. It was a low-quota ADSL2+ plan though (20GB I think?).

Don't care so much for speed, just want a bigger download limit (on 70GB atm).

i DO get those speeds. i pay "96/mo for it (60/60 cap). so clearly. i'm prepared to pay at least $200 ;)

Im switching to cable soon. My neighbour gets 2.5mb/second and has the same cap/cost per month as I do on my ADSL2 which caps at like 500kb/s due to distance from the exchange. That's all the encouragement I need.

I can get you 1500k at "15/month, unlimited. No shaping. No AUP. (obviously no illegal stuff...)

Eh. I'd pay $30 for a DSL that downloads at around 230KB/s.

I pay $5.99 for DSL that goes between 12 and 195KB/s right now.(Sprint messed up the bill a few too many times, so as an apology they gave us cheapo DSL.)

But yeah, I'm tired of it deciding to stay at around 32. So I'd gladly pay around $30 or so. I'd really like this connection I read about called OC-12. but $600... Kind of steep.
