HERO

ok thanks for the help, just the i have received mixed opinons, like because im not reaching 8mbs connection why get one that is up to 24mb, but yeah i see that u need to let the full 24mb thru in order to increase the speed. in that case any suggestions on a good adsl 2+ modem, an updated billion perhaps, i dont know much about them.

i was told that u only need an adsl 2 modem if u are reaching 8mbs connection... i need to really make sure coz i only just bought my adsl 1 modem about 6-8 months ago, and dont wanna spend another 100+ bucks on a new modem if i dont have to

i have a billion bipac-5100 and the ppl at adam reckon i dont need a adsl 2+ modem, they think it wouldn't make a difference

hi, i just got adsl 2+ ( 24000/1000 ) i used to be able to dl at 52kb a second on my old adsl plan 512/128k and every time i did the download speed test i got the same results pretty much. now i do the download speed test and get all sorts of results. :::..
