Although silence seems to be the order of the day as far as traffic
across the "upgraded" network is concerned. Isn't it a little ridiculous
that I can't download a 136K file from a US ftp site the connection times
out before it's made? Or that it takes more than ten minutes to get 3K of
it when you finally *do* get a connection?
Yes, some sort of even semi-official announcement would have been nice.
Perhaps Telstra Internet has decided to take the attitude that it's a
technical problem and we don't really need to know the details...
