    iinet internet is shit..better go with superloop, aussieBB or Leaptel/Launtel

    • McFly on 11/11/2024 - 19:15

      Some things never change.
      Last time I was on iiNet they were great. Then again, that was at the time when 1.5Mbps was the fastest available ADSL connection.

  • sol3x on 11/11/2024 - 16:45

    I'm on HFC with Leaptel on a 100/20 plan, but I experience occasional random dropouts pretty much every day. Has anyone else had the same issue?

    My previous providers were:
    MyRepublic
    Superloop
    Leaptel

    I also upgraded my router to AX3000.
    The dropouts have been happening consistently across all providers, so it seems like it could be an issue with the HFC in my area. Anyone else experienced something similar?

      I had so many dropouts and slow speed with Leaptel on FTTP and noticed that they were maxing out on my PoI constantly so I left them in the first month of joining. Been with 2 other providers since then and not a single issue (only swapping for better priced deals).

      • sol3x on 11/11/2024 - 17:28

        May I know what the other 2 providers you were with?

    • philotex on 11/11/2024 - 17:58

      I have experienced this recently. In my case they are blaming it on rogue devices ”… identified a fault from one or more end-user premises that is causing interference on the network for the neighbouring sites.”

      Try abb for a month and see how it goes
      Didn’t they have 1 month free at some stage.
      May pop up again.

      I have had this. HFC connections are finnicky and can require re-termination after an extended period of time.

      If you have ruled out things like CVC congestion, RSP issues and WiFi issues this is the procedure I followed to have my HFC connection repaired.

      Items needed:
      1. Obtain a second router (your old router would be good). Record the mac addresses of both routers.
      2. Obtain a spare computer to act as a server. It should be wired to the router. WiFi won't do here.
      3. The following script: https://github.com/patos42/ping-server/blob/main/ping.sh or use the docker container if you know how to use it.

      Steps:
      1. Run the script on your hardwired server and check the log after say 48 hours. You shouldn't really get any missed packets over a day if your HFC connection is excellent. You can still have a very good connection with a handful of packets lost per day.
      2. Repeat the test with your old router to confirm the packet loss is similar. Record the time you did this and the mac address.
      3. Call your RSP and explain you are losing a lot of packets and your internet drops out.
      4. Follow their troubleshooting advice which will likely revolve around WiFi issues. You will likely need to call back 24 hours later. You will at some point need to advise them you have tested two routers.
      5. Call back 24 hours later and say you completed their troubleshooting steps and the issue is not resolved. Demand it be escalated to NBN. If they ask you to do more WiFi related troubleshooting just say you have already done it (since we know the connection is poor over wire). You must have tested both routers at this point, otherwise NBN will check their logs and reject your request if they don't see two mac addresses.

      An NBN tech will come some time later (it was less than a week for me) to investigate your connection. They will re-terminate your street connection. For me it did not resolve it. They had to come back to re-terminate the NBN-box side - it was done improperly by a private electrician in the past. They also replaced the NBN box though I don’t think that helped.

      After this my connection went from having multiple 10m dropouts a week to no dropouts but a handful of packets lost (I can't notice this day-to-day).

    Curious if any of the ISP's dont like it if there is a constant download stream of 100mbps on the connection 24/7. Never been an issue on ABB. All mention fair use policy for their unlimited plans. Wonder what is considered fair use?

  • RangaWal on 11/11/2024 - 18:16

    Is FTTP a better than HFC?

    • jaimex2 on 11/11/2024 - 18:21

      Not really much difference unless you're going into business plans

      • RangaWal on 11/11/2024 - 18:23

        Thanks - currently reliably getting ~600Mbps on HFC, so I imagine FTTP would be similar (if it's even available)

        • Twix on 11/11/2024 - 18:26

          FTTP and HFC can both get 1000/50. With a capable router you get 900-970Mbps down. Is that 600Mbps over Wi-Fi?

          • RangaWal on 11/11/2024 - 18:28

            @Twix: On ethernet. Currently using the supplied NTD and a Unifi Dream Router. All the ISPs I've checked mentioned 600-700Mbps max, so maybe my HFC is the issue?

            • Twix on 11/11/2024 - 18:29

              @RangaWal: The problem is the Unifi Dream router. If you swapped to a newer Ubiquiti router your wired speeds will increase.

              600-700Mbps is the ISPs average typical evening speed between 7pm to 11pm.

              • RangaWal on 11/11/2024 - 18:46

                @Twix: Interesting - which model would you recommend?

                  @RangaWal: I'm hitting 900+ with a dream machine pro and pppoe connection

                • Twix on 11/11/2024 - 19:37

                  @RangaWal: There is no direct replacement for the Unifi Dream router.

                  There is the Ubiquiti Unifi Cloud Gateway Ultra and Cloud Gateway Ultra Max however you will need a separate access point and PoE supplied by a PoE injector or PoE switch.

      FTTP has faster download/upload speed tiers available, the best reliability and lowest latency. HFC is second best.

    Does iinet use cgnat?

    • Twix on 11/11/2024 - 19:38

      iinet don't use CG-NAT on the nbn.

  • gzy2001 on 12/11/2024 - 02:42

    Does IINET use TPG network?

    • Ruprect on 12/11/2024 - 10:08

      Same company. IInet is TPG but there is one difference they have maintained with this "brand". There is no 30 days notice to leave unlike TPG.

      • gzy2001 on 13/11/2024 - 02:11

        Does speedtest.net show the ISP as TPG or iiNet?
