I received an (unsolicited) assurance about my (TransACT) VDSL2 connection.
When I've checked in the past, it was usually running about 15-20Mbps. So I ran three speedtests, one immediately after the other, and repeated that three times at 10-15 minute intervals: - iinet said 67/12 72/16 72/12 - oszpeedtest 26 21 23 - speedtest.net 72/18 69/ 8 72/19 None of the three sites provide any explanation of their method, or any indications of assumptions made. _______ From: "iiNet" <[email protected]> Date: 1 Nov 2017 10:58:12 +0800 >You don't need to switch to NBN because you're already on our ultrafast VDSL2 >broadband network. >You've probably been hearing a lot about the NBN lately, so we thought we'd >help clear a few thing up. >- The NBN will not be replacing the network which powers your > current VDSL2 broadband service. >- That's because our VDSL2 network is already delivering reliable, > high-speed internet with download speeds between 20Mbps & 80Mbps*. >This means that you can keep your current VDSL2 broadband for as long as you'd >like.
