[LINK] Au sites and resources serious lagging

[Richard Chirgwin]

SMH and e-mail working fine from an iiNet user. News Limited sites fine, 
ditto ABC.

Speeds at speedtest.net are a joke - 5 Mbps down, 750 Kbps up. Ping okay 
at 21 ms. Same at the Optus speed test and BigAir. Kinda down for an 
ADSL2+ service, even 2km from Petersham.
