Stick with Telstra Cable. It is way better than ADSL.

Warning: the Telstra cablemodem runs in transparent mode (good!) and does
*NOT* provide any firewall functionality (irrelevant, as I would always
provide my own anyway).

For a suitable and very good firewall, get an old PC with 128MB RAM. CPU
speed is irrelevant, but you need the memory. 

Although these firewalls do not need a large hd I have found a larger drive 
with a larger cache is quite nice.
