Irrespective of ISP, have a think about what type of BB you have available.

If you have cable get that, if not then ADSL. Lastly if you really really really want BB, then Satellite.

Have a look at Telstra in terms of their package deals with your fixed line service etc. #Look at the package deal not the broadband on its own.

I'm with
Swiftbroadband
512k Ultra-Lite 1 GB none $5 /GB Free Dynamic $40 /mo

Otherwise TPG has
1.5Mb Value Unlimited/15G 15 GB Shaped N/A Dynamic $49.95 /mo

Now a 1.5mb link rocks... but the 512 save me $10

I don't like telstra and heard that they have constant problems with the link being down.

Might not be true but thats just what I heard.

I have optus cable and phone and it works out ok'ish.

I'm with Netspace. Only have the 256K (still 10 times faster than dialup) but get 10gig download for $39, complete with free modem/router.

Upgrades are available for free, and the service so far has been very reliable.

There may be download sessions ( but I got no idea cos I got Optus Cable Broadband) , so check it out. Anyways, Optus is good - but I have connection problems every couple hours or so - I think it is only my modem stuffing up. :-[

Good $$$ for the service Skippa :) .

I have 1 Gig/month and it does me fine - you may need more if you are a big downloader.
