ADSL2+
ADSL2+ is finally available at my local exchange. I’ve been watching the other exchanges in the Perth area get switched over to ADSL2+ from ADSL over the last year. It was incredibly frustrating…waiting…waiting. The end result is 20 mbps downstream and 1mpbs upstream – which is fantastic compared to 1.5 mbps. The responsiveness change isn’t that noticeable except when lots of separate apps are downloading/communicating concurrently but nothing is slowing down. Even better is when you work with a server site that can really pump the data through.
