I am so stoked with our new broadband plan - we're with Telstra Clear. We pay for 1GB and when it runs out it just automatically tops up another one! It used to drive me batty going down to dial up. Oh what a thing to complain about - slow internet!! ]]> Sat, 03 Mar 2007 20:08:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5954&PID=115018&title=grrrr-dial-up#115018 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5954&PID=115003&title=grrrr-dial-up#115003 Author: Maya

I also had to download a heap of stuff for a PR job I was working on, some of the files were over 1MG each

And I will be back on full speed within 2 working days - have upgraded to 5GB Part of the prob is that I was supposed to be on 2GB and when we moved they stuffed up the transfer and downgraded me to 1GB, and I never noticed coz I've been on leave so not down/uploading much big stuff.]]> Fri, 02 Mar 2007 21:36:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5954&PID=114807&title=grrrr-dial-up#114807 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5954&PID=114772&title=grrrr-dial-up#114772 Author: fattartsrock

Pics can chew it up pretty quick

I'm lucky - I think - when we use all our broadband we pay an extra $10 for another 5Gb and keep on going.
