Hi sorry i dont see the need anymore, its hours later, i ran a sppedtest and posted the results at the time, please see original post, i see your forum is FULL of people whinging about subpar service, the MS responce time, to a telstra server is in the original  post i fail to see what running more tests hours later will achieve, tbph you guys need to upgrade the link you have to your provider, end of story.  if you can not provide a working internet connection with decent averages then the bottom line is, i could jump ship, not pay you out, and if it went to court, my solicitor has agreed i would definately win any hearing, as it turns out i love tpg, will not be jumping ship and will stick it out, it frustrates me that you ask me to run further tests a day later, to what end? would you like me to try turning it off and then on again???? dont you think i would of tried this, im a network security consultant, dont wind me up!!
