On VPN, usually use Netherlands but is being a bit buggy today so using Germany instead

It gets worse when there is some moderate rain.

 

I am the team captain and manager of 1 TF2 team + am a member of 3 other teams + regular scrimmages.

 

And they wonder why I always insist on playing medic despite it being one of my worse classes, :P

 

ETA of National Broadband Network? Construction in my suburb STARTS in 2018.

 

It is a government project, which means it is mandatory to delay it for a minimum of 12 years from the date mentioned to the public.

Well, hey, you can say you have faster upload than download.. not many people can say that! :)

It's not my connection, but it looks like ADSL2+.

In that case what he can do is minimal

my speed is crap, but i get my internet for free from sky, i pay £22 a month for tv package and get net thrown in. my 3g speed is about 5-7mbps down and 1-2mbps up, but if i use my 4g i get 40mbps down and around 5-10mbps up which makes my home internet seem like dial-up all over again in comparison lol

At that speed it should be free.  Glad to see their being nice, even if they aren't high performance :)

They were originally going to charge me for just internet which would have been £23 a month, but a mess up with an activation payment made them give me a deal with family bundle tv package, line rental and internet for £22 a month.

 

It is always good to get a deal but it would have been better to have their fiber broadband but they cap the usage to 25gb a month which is useless to me as i blow through that in less than a week especially having 2 kids lol

Well this my net connection (actual is a 60mbps up/down):)                                                       

5091022346.png

 

But....... This happened some time back in my Grandmum's house with a 512kbps that was tripping balls (the 20GB data cap for the 4mbps ended quite fast as 5 devices were using it at once brutally). I was downloading a few game patches when this came out of nowhere in real time as well..... I was not sure what to even say afterwards .....O.oo.O:|
