Telstra Bigpond

When it works, it's very fast, however the network frequently goes down - it's rare to get 1 hour's use out of it before it goes down for an hour or more. Based on the diagnostic software and some comments by call centre staff, this is always a problem with the network. They also add a lot of security bloatware that (despite the high download speed) somehow takes forever to do regular updates).

OptusNet

I'm using Optus mobile broadband temporarily while I mind a house as Vivid (which is much better service) doesn't cover here. There's no coverage issue - in the middle of the night, the advertised speed is consistently reached - however the network is highly congested during the day. The connection is often too slow to be usable and drops out frequently. Only for the desperate (like me) or those who will only use it at night.

Netspace

I am overall quite happy with Netspace.

The connection is very fast and 100GB for $59/month is excellent value.

The only problem I have is that it seems to go down about once a week and I have to reset my router to get it up again. Not a major issue but just a bit annoying.

They were able to activate Naked ADSL without me having to connect a phone which was a big bonus.
