Hey guys, I've got a suggestion.

All Optus Cable customers complain to optus about the upload speeds :@

@ least it's working 2day, it was down yesterday morning -.- Personally I'd prefer high download, even if it means a lagging upload.

Optunet has served me well the past couple of years (apart from whe I go over the limit, the speed barely reaches 2 kb/s)

Yeah, lower is better. Basically, it means the amount of time it takes for you to send a message to the server and back. :)

That's the maximum, which is only really obtainable if you're really close to the phone exchange and have a perfect phone line. I'm 2km from my phone exchange, and the phone line isn't too good (Telstra have had to fix it 2 times, it completely died twice).
