-- I've done this same change about 3-4 weeks ago, and so far there have been 
no problems.  The download speed you get depends on your distance from your 
exchange, I am about 3 km from mine (Subiaco) and get about 5100.

-- You don't get a detailed list of your non-local calls from iiNet, but this 
information is available under your toolbox info. You get the usual iiNet 
billing, ie first an email account notifying you of the amount which will be be 
charged to your credit card at a date ahead (14 days?), then a similar paper 
account mailed to you, after which your card is debited on the date set. This 
is quite convenient for me.

-- My conversion was a little different, as my broadband was coming in on my 
fax line, not my phone line. However this just meant that both my lines were 
switched to iiNet rates.

-- A minor point for most is that Telstra do give a rebate on their rental 
charge for one home line for a pensioner, and other carriers don't. HTH.

Subject:  IiNet Broadband 2?
Hi
Please does anyone know if there is any reason why I should not convert my
iiNet Broadband account to their Broadband 2 service?
For the same price ($49.95 with iphone):
EXISTING BROADBAND 512lite
512 download, 128 upload
6 +6  GB quota

NEW BROADBAND 2 Light
1500 - 8000 download, 256- 1000 upload
10 + 10 GB quota

I realise that existing phone lines may mean I don't get the maximum speeds,
but surely it will still be faster than what I have got?

Ta
Rod
