I rang Telstra today the Australian network provider they inform me its out until 15.12.2017 as they cross over to fiber optic.
Just run a speed test on my phone 1.21 down load upload 9.56 mbps
Every person must be hot spotting there phones atm.
Trying to watch Netflix is like an old school dial up modem back in the day when it took half an hr to see a hot chick appear on your screen
OMG! They might have to go outdoors where there's fresh air and sunshine! Or worse, play tag or hide 'n seek or shoot hoops!
LOL! This hits close to home....I'm in rural NW Alabama and my DSL ( actually ADSL) is 3.0meg down / 512KL up. Yep, 3.0 M down. And that's if the wind isn't blowing or nobody farts. It's almost like having NO Internet at times. Like two Dixie cups and some string (or wire).
I lived in N. CA's Silicon Valley for 29 years and would likely have fiber by now (or 5 years ago) but after my divorce in '04 I couldn't afford to live there anymore. Looking back it was still a good trade: bad wife for mediocre DSL. Constant complaining for tranquility. Ahhhh.

That makes me hear the sound of the old dial-up modems
Wow...now THAT's dismal speed. Ain't nobody doin' Netflix in that crib!That's smokin'. My brother in law has DSL and is lucky to get 0.5meg down.
That's amazing. You could probably use it look at an old circa 1996 to 2000 web page with HTML 2.0 or 4.0 that's all text, no images or media. The current Yahoo home page would likely take 5 minutes or more or 'time out' before it was done.I'm somewhat friends with someone that owns an ISP that mainly consists of dsl customers. He told me a while back that they still have 200 customers paying for dial up! They have faster options, but are not interesting in anything more.
Man, I'll never complain again about my 3.0 meg down...............NOT!!
