Hi guys

I'm with TPG at the moment and not happy with them to say the least. TPG has been full of disconnects and random outages for me and they can never get their act together, its a ball ache.

I only really care about playing SC2 and watching streams. I generally play NA and SEA but might be interested in a KR account soon.

I was wondering who you were with and which ISP has worked well for you in your sc2 games.

[ZergGirl]

I'm with Telstra, IINET and internode. (same suburb, different house)

Telstra has the best latency overall but the worst customer support (if ever anything bad happens).

Internode has better latency to KR compared to IINET. Although IINET has a better latency to NA compared to Internode.

This is from Perth.

I'm with TPG and I have never had a problem with them.

I'm with Starhub and pretty much hasnt had any problems with their internet connection..

oh wait, wrong country +D

Im with Internode. Their customer support is great. Internode have always given me more Data at a faster speed and cheeper rate every time I look at new pricing. Personally I havent shopped around much for internet in a long time. Telstra is normally very pricey unless your reducing your phone bill by a significant amount with a bundle or some such.

I dont know what other companies offer but internode have the ability to shape your speed up and down depending on your connection which gives you a more stable connection if your in a iffy area or a quicker connection if your in a more stable area. This might be what you need if your having a lot of disconnects.

	ToRDjvillian:	Im with optus and have no complaints. then again my old internet provider was 3 tethered through my iphone :P
	ToRSmotPokingFish:
	Fadey:	You will get double the ping to sea you do on NA with optus as they dont have a link that way so it goes to NA and back down.... stay away from optis
	|Erasmus|:	Exactly as Fadey says... quite frustrating to play on SEA compared to NA.

iiNet is great and supports Day9 within their Freeview area.

I'm with Internode, best service and performance and as an added bonus, not Telstra.
So yeah, go with them if you have the cash to do so, not overly expensive.

[Hunter]

Another happy Internode customer here.

I've been with them for about 6 years and have barely had an issue. They aren't the cheapest out there but for me regular good internet is worth paying slightly more for.

[HteD]

internode are greedy as ****, almost as bad as telstra for prices cause they have such a large rusted-on userbase. Go for iinet, better prices and as said before day9 and shit is up on their freezone unmetered.

hella cool.

I'm on optus cable and any time I want to play on SEA I have to be on a VPN otherwise I have 300+ ms (even though I have the optus speedpack and its sensational to everywhere else).

[Maynarde]

Internode quite awesome for pings to KR / SEA and NA. No complaints, no problems.

[TASlowHands]

Wow thanks for all the quick annd helpful responses, this community nails it as usual!

Since two names keep cropping up, IINET and Internode, i'll check them both out, though im leaning towards IINET as they support the day 9 daily and have 24/7 customer service which amazingly doesnt seem to be in bangalore.

Thanks everyone. Feel free to continue moaning about your ISP in here if u want though.

netspace here, pretty darn good na can lag on occasion

[Eldrid]

Internode is like 10-20 a month more than other isp's i believe, but is soooo good and helpful if you ever have an issue... Theyre aus based and you normally get through within a few minutes. Good ping to sea/na/kr (i never complain of lag), im in sydney.

[inFeZa]

Bigpond - Melb here.

For anyone who plays games like Team Fortress 2 and other server based online FPS, Internode provides servers that do not use data allowance on the client's end.

internode very good isp yeah :)

[Benji]

Telstra, zero downtime in the 2 and a bit years i've been here, never had to deal with customer service and they installed it very quickly and without drama. Also good speeds.

[Rageboredguy]

I'm with TPG but I've been having issues lately so i can hardly recommend them, but i had a good 6+ months prior to that...

[Dox]

iiNet is pretty dreamy. Amazing ping to SEA and KR. Really bad lag to NA at times though.
