I have had a few people asking me about my reference to Internode in a previous post, so I thought I'd just followup publicly with a few details here:
http://adsl.internode.on.net I opted for the 1500/256k link with 500MB/month for $135/month. Note: That is 500MB downloads, uploads are free (Telstra charge for both incoming/outgoing, in effect double charging). There is no contract period, you are billed monthly and can terminate/ switch at any time. They do not use PPP authentication - no client software is required - just hook your ethernet card straight up to the modem, and set up your static IP. Static IP (yay! :) Adelaide based, and also service Sydney/Melbourne metro (where available I guess). They also service Brisbane metro (lucky for me :), though I don't think they mention that on their site. Service has been good (only suffered a couple of 20minute outages since I have had the link). And since they don't use PPP, there is one less potential problem to worry about... -- Cheers, Jim.
