  • 1Mbps upload isn't too attractive

    • sorry, it was 10Mbps, my bad…

        Upload Speed isn’t 10Mbps

        Typical evening speed is 10Mbps

        NBN 12: 12 Mbps download, 1 Mbps upload

        • What is a typical evening though?

    Shape the country and economic back to the dial up age?

    • +3

      Dial-up was 56 kbit/s.

      • lol… my first modem was 300 bit/s.

        I thought all my Christmases had come at once when I upgraded to 1200 bit/s and the terminal display could keep up with my typing speed…

  • +3

    I was with them previously when my bill increased from $59 to $69 (NBN50 - 6 months at the reduced price). Interestingly they are now offering the same $59 deal for NBN50. Left because of the price hike and the fluctuating 'peak time' speeds often going below 25Mbps.

  • 12mbs half the speed of ADSL2 yikes

    • That's all my FttN does (13Mbits/s & up 6Mb)… yeah I feel jaded given all the tax I pay.

      • Wow that's terrible I used to get 85-90mbps on FTTN with Telstra!

    • +2

      12mbs half the speed of ADSL2

      Half the theoretical speed of ADSL2. More than half the population get less than 12Mbps on ADSL2, so even though it's NBN's lowest speed, it's still an improvement for most people.

      Quote: the average Australian ADSL speed is just 8Mbps.

    Hi all,

    Real maximum download is 12 Mbps = 1.5 MB/s :
    https://www.gbmb.org/mbps-to-mbs

    Upload is 1 Mbps = 125 KB/s

    Awfully slow speeds, half that of ADSL2+

    NBN12 is being phased out, and the minimum will be NBN25 (which was ADSL2+ speed)

    I advise you not to lock yourself to this slow speed contract.

    • 1.5 MB/s is a simple conversion from bits to bytes. Still need to take into account encoding overhead, encapsulation overhead, and Ethernet header and CRC overheads.

    • +2

      Awfully slow speeds, half that of ADSL2+

      You are comparing with the maximum speed possible on ADSL2+, most people get way lower than that speed.

      The average speed of ADSL2+ in Australia is 8Mbps, so for most people 12Mbps is a speed upgrade.

      I just read that thread, it's one guy complaining about a problem a year ago, and one guy a month ago who admits he was wrong.

      As it is "Whingepool", one person complaining in a year is actually a good review!

  • +1

    I thought companies were not allowed to sell NBN12 anymore.
    Don't bother.
    It's like having a computer with 2GB RAM.

    • They are shaping their connections to multiple units of 12mbps and selling them overall to make more money than say nbn25/50/100

    • I have povvo NBN with spintel. It's noticeably quicker than what I had on adsl2. I just can't afford anything faster right now

    • I thought companies were not allowed to sell NBN12 anymore

      No. NBNco just made it one system for 12Mbps customers, and a different system for higher-speed customers. There is a charge for both systems, so If you are an ISP and run both systems, you have twice as many fees as an ISP only running one system.

      So the ISPs have to decide if they want to be a 12Mbps ISP, or a faster ISP, or be a lot less profitable and run both systems. FlipTV have apparently chosen the latter.

    The house I live in has been with Flip tv for almost a year and it’s been terrible. We pay for 40mbps download and are lucky to get 2mbps over wifi, and 10mbps connected to Ethernet. Also our internet cuts out 5 days out of 7 for 20 minutes at about 8pm and then several times throughout the night. Customer service really don’t care about you and the average wait time on the phone is > 2 hours. Do not use fliptv if you want reliable internet at the speed you pay for.

    • We pay for 40mbps download

      NBN consumer speeds are 12, 25, 50 and 100Mbps. Or do you mean you are on FTTN and get a sync speed of 40Mbps?

      If so, don't blame the NBN for that, put the blame squarely at the feet of the people who insisted NBN should have FTTN, when all the experts told them FTTN was a bad idea.

      • Sorry you’re right, the download speed for the plan we’re on is advertised as 50mbps

    • +1

      2mbps over wifi, and 10mbps connected to Ethernet

      The WIFI speed has nothing to do with NBN. Check your WIFI settings and the nodes locations.

      • NBN has nothing to do with WIFI speeds?? Well then we should all just pay for 10mbps plans and crank up the WIFI settings to100mbps
