So I have got a very good job offer to move to Australia, and it will quite a big positive change for me both financially and mentally.

Except when I get to researching the Internet connections. Now this is a problem that most people will not understand except perhaps my fellow datahoarding brothers and sisters. Is 1000/50 really the best speed I can get?

I guess I am so spoilt by having 1000/1000 to home here in Sweden that it’s creating a big issue in my mind. I upload quite a bit to cloud storage and seed quite a few ISOs as well, that upload speed is giving me slight anxiety! Just wanted to get some perspective from Australian datahoarders.

    We get absolutely butt fucked in AUS with our internet , blame the liberal government at the time for fucking up the NBN, what could have been reasonable has turned into a third world joke

    FYI you can get 1 gig up/down, on the enterprise plans, NBN come our fiber to your home etc, but it’s a 3 year minimum contract, costs around a grand a month, and you need an ABN
