btw guys, after our last upgrade we have more bandwidth than when I last checked with aaNet
But we are still very small.
I think you are going to struggle to see the larger players offer genuine fast speeds at a low price - even iiNet has suffered large amounts of CVC congestion in lots of places. They put their prices up too.
The big guys base their network on 100-150kbit/sec/customer - that is up to around 30-50GB per month. We started out needing to support 2Mbit/sec from the getgo - even with few customers, because 100Mbits is so very, very peaky. The NBN really does shake things up for the market.
For AusBBS, a DSL service on the network is like dialup in terms of comparison - not a blip on our network. That is why we offer it as Unlimited.
Our DSL on-net offer is $39.85 with Unlimited Data and +$20 ($59.85) Including line rental. Although not on the site I can do a special for everyone here +$10 for Zone1($50 standalone $70Bundle) and +$20 for regional($60 Standalone $80 Bundle). Special for Gurus, $50setup & NoContract.
Support is all based in Australia (and always will be!), and all staff 'telecommute' - like I have been for 13 years.
We have serious backers - exOzemail, exUUnet, exWebCentral, and of course Me

I am building a new site, but that should give you a bit of a rundown.
Thanks for reading
