Being Australian i would like to clarify the possible misconception of this thread a few e-mails ago (e-mail included) The internet here is not 20MB it's 20Mb. We have had ADSL2+ just implemented mostly by our pathetic excuse for a telco service, they have locked their system at 20mbit down.

Myself is using a application called TPTEST, www.tptest.se (site in swedish). The application is made by our government (and others) for consumers to test if their bandwitdh lives up to what the ISP promise. At least it a easy way to test if the bandwidth is stable. marshall wrote: what
