telstra adsl is ok when you add up the amount of time you dial in and the price of the adsl there is not much difference i go with iprimus 70.00 for 3 months unlimited thats not to bad but telstra is 70.00 for 1 month unlimited with adsl depends on how many hours you want and ofcourse your downloads and uploads

There are many different ISP with many different options.
Broadband Cable
Broadband ADSL
ISDN
Satalite
Dial Up

We need to know,
how many hours a week do you use the internet,
How much do you normally download, or do you just browse the internet,
Is connection speed a problem,
Do you need to keep your phone line free for calls?

An unlimited 1500mbps account wouldn't suit someone who checks emails for 2 hours a week.

I use adsl via ozemail, they are pretty good.
lots of different plans to choose from. you can sign up on line and they send u all the stuff (modems cables etc, if you dont already have them)

G'Day Volvo,

I use Netspace. ADSL connection 256mg (yes it can be a bit slow compared to 512, but I can Upgrade for FREE)

Allowed to download 10gig a month for $39 per month. Been with them for a few months now and very happy so far.

Also you can check out wirlpool (I think thats it) its like a forum board for ISP. you'll get heaps of info there.

Cheers,
