Just a side issue. $$ for ADSL are coming down fast. There is an advertised TPG(1) deal that looks good at $26.99/month(2).
If ADSL works on your line, I'd price it against a Telstra permanent modem dial up. 512/128 has to beat a modem. HTH Stu (1) Absolutely no affiliation with TPG or any ISP for that matter. (2) That gets you a 512/128 line (twice my current speed). There are extras like you pay 15.9c/Mb first 300 then 8c/Mb thereafter and you need to pay the setup charges etc. Still it's getting close to being reasonable - I'm probably switching on contract expiry unless Pacific Internet can match it. It's the same price if I use all 300Mb, double the speed and then the extra Mb are only 1/2 the current price.
