[Technical] Internet Service Providers!

[Keith Richardson]

Our change to westnet adsl from bigpond cable since September 2005 has
been excellent.
Speed has increased out of sight, and reliability tops. Bigpond were
still wet behind the ears and could never get their act together (after
2-3 years trying...). We were not happy, now we are. Costs less for a
far better service.
Ciao, Keith
