My wife and I are quite possibly moving to Sydney - maybe to Manly - in a

If you find an area with an Agile DSLAM (Agile being Internode's
sister company), you can get up to 2.5Mbps upload (starts at $70/month
for 10GB) if you live close enough to the exchange) Other ISPs with
ADSL2+ top out at 1.1, 1.0 or 0.5 upstream depending on how they've
configured things, but may be adding support for faster uploads in the
future.
It's probably worth noting that, at least in theory, activating Annex M
to increase upload speeds like this entails an approximately equal
decrease in the maximum download speed for the service[1].
