    Just curious to find out what broadband plans everyone is on? I've long been of the understanding that Australia is really behind in terms of broadband service quality and price, so I'd just like some real examples /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

    To aid comparison, please specify the following:

    Down speed in bps
    Up speed in bps
    Download Quota per month (if any)
    Cost per month (in USD)

    Here's mine:

    Down: 9.9 Mbps (theoretical, but rarely achieved)
    Up: 256 kbps
    Quota: 20 GB/month (additional 20 GB off-peak, effectively 40GB)
    Cost: $65 USD/month

    I noticed today a huge difference between the 4MB and 8 MB packages. I played with my friend in California with the 8MB package, and it was the best I've had yet.

    Gerald - let's do it. It's been pretty fun online. Of the 12 or so games I have had about 3 laggy ones but those were out of state. The best games I've had were from LA based people and most all the rest were pretty damn good.

    I'll be on later - I think I sent it before but I'll PM my GamerTag.

    You're near TO right. That's a great test. I'm interested in our test as well as one with Dustin and my friend Anthony.
