          All I can say is that for the 1 month I was with AusPost my peak speeds didn't drop below 850ish in the very worst case.

          2 examples - https://www.speedtest.net/result/c/4e541415-571a-4da5-bc9c-b… and https://www.speedtest.net/result/c/26ee152d-3db0-4203-a566-a…

          The reason why I left is that all V4 traffic is hauled back to their CGNat equipment in Mel/Syd, none of it is handled in their local Perth POP. IPv6 traffic did stay local though. The same would apply for any other state apart from VIC/NSW.

          For $104 it was a bit of a bargain apart from the crap routing. Probably something you'd put up with in the eastern states.

          In the case of Launtel and ABB gigabit NBN plan can easily pass 850mbps mark busy hours. I usually get ~900-970.

        I'd argue having electricity is more important, and that's not free either.

        I don't think this "every basic necessity should be free" is the best of arguments. Adds too much complexity (eg how much is free? What tier is free? Etc)

          I think that if we have better standards for things like Internet, we wouldn’t have to pay (that amount) for 12/1 in year 2023. It’s so low that could be free like freetoair is. Also, having better housing standards with minimum requirements for energy rating would mean that households wouldn’t have to have aircon for hours when it’s too hot or too cold outside.

          It’s kinda laughable that Australia has such low quality Internet and also that South Australia has a higher rate of deaths from extreme cold compared with the northern European nation of Sweden, according to new research from the University of Adelaide.

          Another study: https://theconversation.com/cold-weather-is-a-bigger-killer-…

          “ Avoidable deaths

          A big clue that these deaths are avoidable comes from comparing the size of the problem between countries. In Sweden, cold caused an estimated 3.9% of deaths, whereas in Australia it caused 6.5% (that’s one in 15 deaths).

          How can it be that the often-freezing Sweden has fewer cold-related deaths than the mostly balmy Australia?”

          • YeboMate on 25/11/2022 - 21:40
            +1

            @ALBastru: I’m not saying this is the reason and I didn’t read that study so I might be pointing out a dependency the study has controlled but perhaps because Sweden has seen much more colder days, they (as a nation) are better equipped and educated to deal with the cold?

            It’s like looking at fatalities from the 2011 Christchurch NZ earthquake and earthquakes in Japan with magnitude of 6.3 or greater. Japan has less fatalities (excluding the 9.1 magnitude earthquake in Japan in 2011 as the death toll from that was mainly from the tsunami). And it’s like saying how can Christchurch have so many fatalities for a 6.3 magnitude earthquake where if you look at all the earthquakes in Japan from 2010 till now between magnitude 6.0-8.0, none of them have had a fatality higher than 50, in fact most are in single digits.

            In this case it’s because Japan has a long history of earthquakes so their infrastructure is better equipped and the people are better educated about how to respond to earthquakes.

              @YeboMate: You don’t need to have negative temperatures to legislate that wind shouldn’t blow in a house. And you need to legislate something when the opposite is a norm. Aussie houses that some call tents are so bad and use a lot energy and that affects everyone. Think of all the extra CO2 pushed into atmosphere because the poorly insulate homes.

              I try not to say anything about cars sold in Australia.

            • ALBastru on 26/11/2022 - 09:57

              @Jaxy: There are studies that compares countries and Australia has more deaths per capita due to cold weather but I can’t find it. Do you think it is normal for the wealthiest country in the world to have one of the worst Internet in the world and some of the poorly insulated homes in the world?

              Like I wrote earlier: having better standards would benefit everyone: lower power bills, better quality of life, healthier people able to innovate.

        agreed. good luck getting a job or even paying/completing many basic life admin tasks without the internet. (think paying a bill, internet banking, learning for kids/uni) a 25/25 service should be free, with higher tiers (think 50/50, 100/100, 500/500, 1000/1000) being a paid extra for those who need it.

          Optus cable, my only option, was something like $95/mo for 12GB of peak data and 24GB of offpeak. I think the speed was 10/0.5.

          Meanwhile it was unlimited for $65/mo before that, but with no competition, they just upped the price and lowered the service.

          They also had Netstats, some incredibly vague amount, that if you went over, they cut off your internet.

            @spaceflight: Hope they don't do cross promotions, don't need to have Monopoly in the broadband space again.

      Should be better than Australia Pre Broadband

    Just signed up to Spintel yesterday. Would have gone with this one just for fun.

      How's connection schedule like?

  • T-man on 25/11/2022 - 20:27

    This or More Telecom? They are pretty much the same price

    • KaTst3R on 25/11/2022 - 20:39

      More is 12 month discount at similar price. It is a better deal.

    As soon as I read AusPost I thought nahhhh. Probably as disorganised as the mail service

    • apiecost on 16/12/2022 - 13:08

      I send around 300 packages per month and from my experience and many others sending at volume, AusPost is by far the best. Sendle/Aramex make AusPost look like a superstar.

    Imagine tneir customer service.
