I honestly don't know how we're first world. Everyone is so fucking stupid and lazy

We're empirically not first world. If you went off our statistics we're pretty much Turkey with shittier internet and slightly less rape.

Don't say such things here. Burgers and Leafs will make fun of us. They think we're based. We have a reputation to maintain.

I'm still loading the pic related, what does it say?

got a brand new modem today and now the internet is even slower

Because they are hooked to a giant f'n extension cord?

Murdoch

>We're empirically not first world
You're empirically a retard

I know that feel lads, 1gb/s fibre options in the cities and outlying suburbs. 5mb/s in the rest of the country.

Shits so fucked and forces me to live shoulder to shoulder with pakis and niggers

Shit is so fucked

cuz you're on a fucking island you retard

>Tfw 900/100

Although tbqh I'd rather 500/500

How much dat shit costs? I've heard Australia is pretty expensive.

>t. 8$/month for 100Mbit/s

That has literally nothing to do with anything

Explain Japan then, retarded yank.

so what? it works. the only cunts that complain are geeks who want it faster for their games and anime

Becareful with your next words cunt

kek what a fucking shit mentality.

HURRRR WHY PAVE ROADS ONLY PUSSIES WHO CAN'T HANDLE MUD CARE.

Aussie is at the arse end of the world. japan is very close to korea and china.

i pay $68 a month for unlimited
i think that's at 500gb, then when you use over that it slows down
i cant remember if any of that's right, it's direct debit and i dont check that shit
you cunts cost us billions of dollars for the NBN because of your whinging
fucking faggots, you dont need to watch youtube all day
with in your means mate, we have more important shit to take care of than weeboos and their vidya

The NBN box is 800m from my house. but we can only connect via the copper wires.

Instead of 100mbps im stuck with 17mbps

>I honestly don't know how we're first world
Mining boom. Seriously, digging shit up from the ground and selling it to other countries forms the entire basis of Australia's economy in the global marketplace. Without our mineral wealth we'd be a 3rd world tier agricultural country. We produce very little of worth to any other country other than what we mine up. Pollies know this well and are desperately doing everything they can to keep the gravy train going but when it runs out Australia is royally fucked.

You'd expect to pay like 60+ a month for 15-25mbits/s with a quota. For that price probably like 200 to 500gb. Companies vary and are often a trade of for price and quota for reliability or speed. Also varies greatly around the country

>not having 1000 mbps internet available locally

59.99 AUD for unlimited downloads at speeds pic related

Oh boy, get ready for some learnin' son because I'm about to open your ass up.

Do you know what the Japanese economy is based on? Information technology.

What about 50% of the American economy? Same thing.

Any country that's doing well in the world, or is predicted to do well, has invested heavily in information infrastructure decades ago and are currently reaping the rewards of negligible competition.

Because retards like you can't be fucked to comprehend the degree to which data transfer rates effect competitive pricing in the free market across international borders.

kek. what's the matter faggots? too slow for you? harden up weak cucks

...

>it's literally faster to mail a harddrive in australia than transfer large files via the web

So basically any potential tech industry in Australia has been hobbled by our shit tier, worse than Kenya internet.

>defending our shit net

fucking kys

>the only cunts that complain are geeks who want it faster for their games and anime

Where do you think you are?

Lithuania literally has better net than us. That's it. TURNBULL YOU'RE FUCKED CUNT I'M GOING TO GLASS YOU YOU JEWISH CUNT FOR RUINING THE AUSTRALIAN INTERNET YOU FUCKING CUNT

FUCK YOU TOO ASIO

Seriously tho lads, why is our government so incompetent on literally every level imaginable?

a literally who nation has 3000% faster internet than you dingo fuckers, lolling right now

it costs 16 euros/month

if it is beneficial for the business, it's in that businesses best interest to invest in that - out of their own pocket.
That could increase the property price and could even be written off as an expense.
That is if it is just for business and your not just using that as rationale for everyone getting faster internet.
>inb4 work from home
same difference, if they need faster internet they can write it off as expenditure, it's up to them to evaluate if it really is going to save them cash in the long run

you're australians

I pay $70 a month for 50Gb, supposed to be 5/1Mbps wireless. I'm in a capital city. My only option, just glad its there or I'd be using mobile plans. They've upped the cap to 200GB for new sign-ons but I'm an old sign-on and..

Australia is truely fucked. Need the Chinese to invade immediately.

I blame the major parties for this. I'm sick and tired of LNP being our "conservative" party. Turnbull and Brandis are both cucks, and no one wants to do shit about NBN. Fuck me I like left and right and all I see is our political scene becoming more a fucking farce.

Honestly, my 4G dongle has faster speeds than I'll ever need and I spend my life behind this screen. Heck, ADSL+ was probably enough, maybe I just got too used it.

The only thing archaic about my current internet situation is that I live in an apartment complex without divided ethernet ports so there is like 20 people sharing one modem and the landlord stopped paying the bills months ago.

Also, data caps are the fucking worst, my dongle speed drains through 25G (maximum data plan) in days if I'm not conservative and then I have to spend $90 to top it up, get's expensive real quick if I want to partake in normie activities like watching movies and porn.

You will still never be able to convince me into preferencing Labor over Liberal, not even with this gimmick Bill.

>anime

Just downloaded forza 7 which was 90gb in 7 minutes.

How you doing mates?

ctd. just did a speed test pic related. This is on their recommended super fast band - Band 40 4G, meant to get to 12Mbps but elsewhere the speed is only 5Mbps. I made sure there is no other internet activity. /cries

wtf that would take me at least 3 days, plus i gotta run behind a vpn which further slows me

not to mention all the drop outs

It's beneficial to the government. To the people. To the public.

Australia, upon having the opportunity, and the money available, to invest into state of the art information infrastructure in order to compete on the global scale economically, decided that they would instead use 18th century technology and waste many tens of billions on the privilege.

It would be as if the country had decided not to put up any electricity grid infrastructure because "Coal powered furnaces are just as good. There's no need to have any fancy telegraph poles transmitting energy to individual homes. No one would ever need that much power."

We're basically the Russia and Africa of the 21st century.

Thanks to retards like you.

downloading an episode of gloryhole swallow. about 3 gb. might take me another day

>tfw paying 59.99 aud a month for my shit tier net

yank is making a lot of threads talking shit m8s which one of you offended him that badly lol

>70 a month for 50 gig

Who the fuck are you with? I pay 59.99 for unlimited.

Australia is the worst country in the world. It's high GDP per capita and HDI is just a honey trap.

they have no rebuttal to various posts about australian gun laws having a clear correlation to lower gun crime, violence and gun murder. it's pitiful

Holy shit I remember when I first got a DSL modem in 2002 with speeds like this.

lmao.

My town has 100% fiber connections west of Brisbane.

Optus increased bandwidth to our area only last week.

It used to be about 3mbps in peak time

This is just now

optus.com.au/shop/broadband/home-wireless-broadband/plans#Plans

Like I said, I'm capped at 50Gb. They've upped it, but they haven't upped me gratis (typical), and I've bought the modem can't churn.

>faster than 93 percent of au

RE\

What town so I can move there?

Oh boy oh boy. I fucking hate Optus with a passion. May I suggest switching to TPG if you're in Melbourne?

If business owners think it is beneficial to their businesses they should invest in it privately.
>electricity grid infrastructure
That on the other hand is somewhere where that capital should be going. We've closed 7 power stations in the past 5 years and have nothing to pick up the slack all because it sounds good to go green.
It sounds good to have the best internet, we're not in a position to have that. We need to learn to live with in our means and not be concerned with keeping up with the Joneses.

>(((data caps)))

fuck me thank god for the insane isp competition in the UK.

I couldn't fucking stand to go back to that shit like in the mid 00's

>"If business owners think that building these so called "Cars" is beneficial to their businesses, they should invest in them privately.

>We need to learn to live with in our means and not be concerned with keeping up with the Joneses.

more like you're not even keeping up with the Barongos.

S L O W E R T H A N K E N Y A

SHUT UP

Are you suggesting that the government should buy you your work vehicle?

The government should make investments and legislate the building of infrastructure that is vital to the survival of our economy.

Otherwise you'll end up spending 60 billion to have internet that's slower than Africa's. And your citizenry will be so retarded they applaud it.

Have 100mb about to upgrade to 1Gbps fuck the rest of you niggers every man for themselves.

The media kept the farce hushed. Even the ABC gagged tech journalist Nick Ross so that he wouldn’t bad mouth the LNP for intending to mis-manage the largest infrastructure project of the next century.

I don't see the big fucking deal, what do you even need more then 5mb for unless your a business? In which cause you've already installed fiber cable ages ago

These netflix cuckold streaming faggots need to go bushwalk or something

Hungary and Russia have top tier internet, they are world leaders.
I heard Kenya has some decent interwebz too, though no excuse for Australia to be behind them.

>what do you even need a car for unless you're a taxi driver?
>what do you even need a house for unless you have 5 kids?
>what do you even need an ambulance for unless you're bleeding out?
>what do you even need a doctor for unless you're about to die?
>what do you even need power for unless you're a machinist?

it's okay to want things in this world, comrade.

5mbs is just pure masochism. 20 mbs minimum for me atleast.

I think if it is that vital to the survival of the businesses it is in their best interest to invest in it themselves and not get tax payers to pay for it.
I'm certain you'd be able to write it off anyway.

No U

So, businesses aren't apart of the economy and they don't pay taxes?

...

if you want it, pay for it yourself
what? of course they are
paying tax doesnt entitle you to determine what the tax dollars are used on.
what the fuck are you even trying to say?

WE'RE SIMPLY NOT READY FOR FASTER BROADBAND

>if you want it, pay for it yourself
okay, so should i just procure $20 billion to pay for a new power station?

Good luck in your dial up era shithole, bogan boy.

coz the fucking government gives no fucking shits, they just sit in office and talk shit. The nbn is as good as fucking dead, is a shitcunt of a system fucking smoke signals are quicker than this shit

>post this
>internet cuts out
>reset router
>see pic related

You're a fucking idiot

Oh im happy when i get to live in the Internet infrastructure producer super power. Only us and swedes know that feeling. It must be sad to be literally nigger
T. 20e per month unlimited mobile highspeed internet. Internet goes with me where my phone is, always. ofc fiber net is available too but that is intented only for nigs

Picture related, had this speed for years and years now. They wanted to charge me a while ago 4k to install cable and i politely told them to fuck off. Even with cable you'll get big fucking congestion.

Funniest thing yet, I'm 5 minutes walk to the local high school and primary school. Where the fuck is my NBN?

This, they are either druggies or all alcoholics.

We have multiple 20TBps under sea cables just between Aus-NZ to the US and further cabling up into Asia.

Australia's shitty internet is purely due to local cable infrastructure, its all old and decaying and the 20 billion they allocated to redevelopment was just squandered away by Australian ISPs

my download averages 500kbs and i pay a fortune for it

fuck life

would wreck his arse tbf

>>literally worst than Kenya
Ouch, that's a burn to the ego.

Do you tranform or refine the minerals you dig in order to sell them more expensive?

I would say that boomers ruined it but that Labor government really didn't help itself by being so faggoty.

These modern times have really shown Australians for what they are. Just another lot of diarrhea.

Solved the WMAF male child social inferior problem desu

He looks like a better taylor swift tbqh

Internet speed is direct correlation to your importance in the world senpai.

The most important thing in being first world is to not have too many people. We used to understand this. We were world champions at it.

Then everyone got greedy on muh property and fucked it almost overnight. Compared to how long we've been around. 230 years, we fucked it in about 20.

HAHAHA
Romania strong.

Nope. We just dig it up and ship it off.

We sell dirt.

>and hungary
What di you mean by this?
I have gigabit internet, for 13 dolaroos/month
Also we have one of the fastest 4g network in europe (that's super expensive tho)

Australian internet is worse than NZ's. We have the same sized "pipe" with less people.

This to be honest. The boomer shits in charge of everything and voting in massive numbers chose yet again to fuck over the next generation because lol who needs an internets we won't be around for the future so fuck it. Fuck Australia.

Back Water Flip here, we're actually paying 30USD for 15-20mbps here.

Here's best average and peak speed of Internet in 2017.

>When Alice Springs has better internet than the cities

dude...shut the FUCK up RIGHT NOW

can i please move to the nordic zone? i have a degree in environment conservation, are there any jobs in binland :DD or norway that i can take, im sick of my city having more and more non whites each day
