Anyone with experience of their Canberra number? My neighbour has Alphalink (Melbourne) and connects mainly evenings and sometimes gets busy signals but is always able to connect after a couple of tries. Their service seems to be reliable although connection speed is often 33.6 kbps or a little lower. Notwithstanding they are a low cost ISP they have a better news feed than many of the more expensive ISPs. -- Andrew. - To reply change nospam to tpg - __________________________
