Pros: Fast, quite reliable

Cons: Low download limit, 28k shaping, no free downloads

Comments: While OptusNet has excellent download speeds (up to 700KB/s), the low download limits on its plans and very slow capping mean that the more regular Internet user has to be careful how much they download. OptusNet hosts no free mirrors and has no free peering, so downloads can eat through your cap quite quick. OptusNet cable was quite reliable and I only suffered a few outages. Also, they have a strict no-server policy and are known to be fast to respond to any illegal p2p usage.

Pros: Great value for money!

Cons: None that I can think of.

Comments: The service that I have received at Optus has been second to none. I get consistantly good download and upload speeds and have never had any problems. Setting it all up initially was a bit of a headache but everything has been running smoothly ever since. Highly Recommended!
