Wow, it's that bad?
I live in rural Pacific NW and just upgraded to 5gbit symmetric fiber.
Most Australians live in or near a major city, it's pretty common to be able to get gigabit. if you're unlucky you might be limited to 100 megabit, but in some remote or rural areas I wouldn't be surprised if it's 5Mb.
Until I switched ths other day from iinet to superloop I was paying 80 a month for 100mbs and lucky to get 20 on off peak times. Switched to superloop for an extra 10 dollars a month and meant to get 1gb instead. At the modem I get 950mbs and 350mbs over wifi to my phone. It's amazing
That's quite a speed. How much does it cost and is this a company or personal subscription?
