Ok I'm thinking of upgrading my ADSL to ADSL2. Currently with Internode but looking at TPG or possibly Optus. Anyone with either of these? Are they any good or should I stay away from them and stay with internode?

I'd love to help but we can only get bigpond here. If I had the choice though I'd go with optus, they have some pretty awesome fusion deals. Their speeds slow to 256 instead of the 64, which means you can still play online too.

one piece of advice.... never go with fuking TPG, they will rip you the fuk off and give you a crappy service with a latancy so bad it is as if your ISP was on the moon

I'm with optus at the moment (mostly because all my other services are with them so i could get it cheaper) and i've been fairly happy with it, they connect it up real fast, normally activated some day as change over, other companies i've had to wait a week to get back online.

I hear internode are epic though, optus offer like no free data so look in to what internode have, i believe they have a fair bit.

I know a lot of people who have TPG and are going to change for the fact they monitor downloads and advise you to delete you "questionably" obtained movies and games.

I found iinet pretty awesome with their service too, they used to give you free downloads on the 360, not sure if that still exists.

But now with adsl2 we have to go with telstra cos they wont let anyone else use their infrastructure, which is fair enough i suppose.

I'm with iPrimus - $50 for 130gb, and pretty good speed too. Used to be with Optus in their $129 fusion plan. Cable was epic <3

No real problems actually with TPG on my account, accept some NAT issues from time to time. Otherwise quite solid.

On iinet now, ADSL 1, but at ADSL 2 speeds. Broke my DL speed score with Steam at 2mb a sec.

Beware Internode people who use Steam. I was ont he phone with them all day trying to get an answer about why Unmetered content was coming off my quota.

Apparently its only unmetered Steam content if it's downloading from an aussie server. And since you can't specify a target server to use it'll never aim for an Aussie server.

But there's a program called SteamWatch which uses a list of IP's that you can input and it blocks all other servers.

I use Frey's Steam Filter. Shit works like magic, yo.

EDIT: Don't forget to use TCPview to verify these things.
