Re: [SLUG] Telstra Outages

Have you talked to connect.com.au?

My company, is getting a few ADSL links from then.  They offer unlimited
uploads at no charge, and very very good download rate (A few GB a month for
free, then a low 14cents a mb afterwards)

My contact there is Sunny, sandeepk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (02 9409 2149).  He is
fast, almost always contactable, checks his 'work' emails before he goes to
bed, and actually knows what things like DDS and spoofin means!

Regards, Alan Lee
