@CA3LE reuse existing radio service and add an additional 1Gbps radio service. internet service upgrade from 1G to 2Gb including customer radio link upgrade. Hi CA3LE, I wanted to show you a quote I received to upgrade my service from 1Gb to 2Gb. From my understanding they are adding a separate 1Gb service to run beside my existing 1Gb service and mesh them together.(???) I will list the work they say is involved in this upgrade , i was hoping you could explain more about the proposed upgrade and the nature of the connection once complete. Radio Hardware upgrade. Promiseland (PROMCS) and Bullyard SS (BULLCS) - Quotes are ready from New Agg switch should be installed ad BULLCS (YT separation) Allocate 1 x single fibre cable between BULLCS and WEBUCS: 1- Splicing is required at P2033059 2- Patching at BUNDCS 3- Allocate 1 x Single core fibre to BUDECS 4- Patching is required at BUDECS 5- Allocate 1 x Single core fibre between BUDECS and WEBUCS 6- Patching is required at WEBUCS. Backhaul Component, Internet charges ,Design and PM, Utilise QCN network to NEXTDC B1 ,Migrate the customer internet service from CITEC to NEXTDC Question, if this is correct, will the new 1Gb only come into play when my existing 1Gb is at capacity? Will it be 2 independent lines with one supporting the other when needed or will it be 2 lines meshed together acting as one Any feedback is much appreciated This work to be covered by me ,the offer is a 3 year contract at $8375 per month This includes unlimited data, for a 2Gb Business grade connection , which comes to $300,852 FYI , I've just finished paying them just over $200,000 for the hardware and setup costs for my 1Gb service Surely this new upgrade wouldn't warrant those prices? The tower(separate cost) and hardware are mine, I've not inquired about a different ISP being able to accommodate me , but I will. Here are some prices for a 2Gb connection is the city TPG Business Fibre 2000: $1,499 per month Business Fibre 2000 with Static IP: $1,799 per month iiNet Business Ultrafast Fibre 2000: $1,499 per month Business Ultrafast Fibre 2000 with Static IP: $1,799 per month Aussie Broadband Business Fibre 2000: $1,499 per month Business Fibre 2000 with Static IP: $1,799 per month Telstra Business Fibre 2000: $1,699 per month Business Fibre 2000 with Static IP: $1,999 per month Optus Business Fibre 2000: $1,599 per month Business Fibre 2000 with Static IP: $1,899 per month I'm hoping you can shine some light on the situation.

I do subscribe to a slower than average package. The standard installation wouldn't work. The alternate proved a better method. I use NOKIA BGW320-505 modem with a short CAT5 cable connection to my pc. I've done a lot of experiments and have come up with a set of tweaks to my system, network connection software and Firefox. My actual file download speed (off peak times) is between 3.7 Mbps and 4.5 Mbps. This is as fast as I need or can use. Thanks!
