Paying for ADSL2+, but receiving ADSL.

Hi. I pay for ADSL 2+ speeds, but I receive ADSL. I only found this out recently. I was suspicious at first since my internet speeds can get frustratingly slow (below 10 kilobytes per second at times), but I played it off as my location (6km away from an exchange, based on www.adsl2exchanges.com ). I had a call to Telstra, but I was told that my internet speeds were within their ranges (I am beginning to believe that it was within the ADSL range). Here is my speedtest result (in kilobytes. This is one of the better days):  Anyway, recently I found that my router site was different, and I did some looking around to find that 'lo and behold; my connection speed was ADSL.  How can I troubleshoot this? More calls to Telstra? I'm not sure what to do. Thank you, all.

I have just moved house 4 streets in Balwyn. Previous house used IINET ADSL and received approx 6.8MPS download and extremely reliable (very rare drop outs). New house is nearer Canterbury exchange using Telstra Bigbond "Fast" ADSL. Only receiving 4.5MPS with many 3-5 minute dropouts during the course of a day. Today I have changed configuration from "Standard" to "Noise Profile 1". So far no drop outs but speed is now a dismal 3.36 MPS - half the speed of IINET but nearer the exchange. To call this "FAST" ADSL is a joke !!!!!!

  • Paying for broadband but receiving dial-up speeds

    Subject says it all. Broadband very intermittent, slow as dial up when it works.
    Phone was off for 10 days, no letter to say why. This happens a lot.
    Very remote area, health concerns within family so communication is paramount. No mobile reception here.
    Come on BT, please fix this.

  • I pay for game, but still free version

    hi. i already pay for a game. it already  has deducted in my credit card bill. but yet, my version stil in free version. someone can help me?

    If you've been charged but haven't received the item then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • My iTunes says I owe $5.25 for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for again but I want to get some apps from the store and now there's a hold on my account. Who do I talk to get the hold taken off

    I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?

    You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

  • I had my mac mini in repair now i am missing server update and they want me to pay for it but i bought a mac mini server

    i bought my mac mini server with leopard server softw. but because i bought it in 2011 okt they gave me a free update to lion os incl server. after a half year i have to send me mac mini to repair because something was wrong with the hard drive. they fixt the problem and put on a new version of lion os. but they did not put the server version on it. they told me that i have to downl it for free. but it does not come for free.
    The problem is before the repair they gave me the free version of lion osx server. because i bought a server version mac mine. but now after repair i only get a version of lion osx without the server software. and i do not have any ideay how to contact them about it tru mail. because calling them is at this moment no option for me.
    how do i get my server version back without paying. and i dont have a paid version in my app store list because they gave me that for free with a code at that time ,
    greetzzzz to all you that can help me

    I had this problem as well. I was under the gun on time and just purchased it anyway. After installation I contacted support and they refunded me the amount.
    You should have a backup of your servers regardless of circumstances. You would then be able to restore the server software.
    When Apple repair machines they will often just swap it or swap the hard disk and will not make any effort to transfer your files. They assume you are doing a backup. Anybody running servers absolutely has a responsibility to ensure they have aduequate backups even more than 'normal' users. While Time Machine may not be wholely suitable for backing up servers Time Machine is so simple even normal users can use it and therefore no longer have any excuse for not doing backups.

  • I can't download payed for games but I can download music and update things why?

    I can't download payed for games I want but I can download payed for music and up date stuff how do I fix it?

    These are user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple. But as Niel says it's unlikely to happen as to doesn't have the ram or processor to support iOS 6.
    Have you checked to see if the developers of the Netflix app have an older compatible version of their app in your country's app store ? Try downloading the current version on your computer's iTunes so that the app is in your purchase history, and then on your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it.
