Looking for recommendations for an NBN RSP. We're in one of the last areas to be built out, and it's finally time to switch from ADSL to FTTN. We're only ~100M or so from the cabinet so I'm expecting a reasonable connection (as far as FTTN is 'reasonable').
For me the first criteria would be IPv6. Not only is IPv6 a very handy thing to have it's also a way of sorting out competency of ISPs, anyone who doesn't have it yet is seriously behind the times. So while iiNet is generally pretty good I wouldn't use them because of their lack of IPv6 support. For my home Internet connection I sometimes have my local name server forwarding to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, but when that stops working (probably due to ISP crapness) I change it to direct lookups. When doing direct lookups sometimes BIND insists on trying IPv6 which isn't enabled. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
