Usually these forums are reserved for complaints and horror stories. I thought I would throw up how I've gone. I signed up on the 30th of april in the afternoon for the kickstart 15gig plan.

I received a response that it would be installed on Tuesday the 6th May. It was done today (the 2nd May). Now I have to head home and check that it all works but so far its been top notch performance. A big thanks to aanet.

Guess the next test is when I get home from work.

Actually you should thank Telstra. They're the ones who installed your ADSL so quickly.

This is partly true... I have seen an ISP that still did not have the connection arranged after 5 working days. aaNet can take some of the credit "deservingly".

(BTW.. the connection mentioned was cancelled and went to aaNet who had it done in 2 days)

I wonder where the OP is?? May have discovered the power of BB??

I have seen another ISP which will remain unnamed here that took 5 days just to send the order to Telstra.
So yes the ISP plays a big part in this, Telstra can't connect it till they get an order

Well done. If i remember, mine was activated the day before they said it would be done. They do a good job.
