Lithoptix ADSL

Anyone tried these guys yet, they have extremely good rates and they are a reseller for Connect-AU. I found these guys through broadband choice and just wondering if anyone knew if they were good or not, they offer a True UNLIMITED ADSL service.

Currently Im with Internode 1500/256 Unlimited which is $150 a month. You get capped to 56k after about 22GiG of rolling data.

http://adsl.lithoptix.com/rates.php
Has a 1500/256 Connection at a mere $145.95 a month compared to Internode this is outstanding.

So if anyone has had any good/bad experiences with these guys or another Connect-AU reseller feel free to post it

(Lithoptix is Brisbane Based I believe)

their page never seems to load for me

Yeah, doesnt load for me either, allthough I can get to thier www.lithoptix.com fine, the adsl domain wont load a page.

Probably a f***ed up dns somewhere along the way or maybe it's a firewall problem on our end.

Maybe they don't want our business cause we're on other suppliers? :(

weird try this http://adsl.lithoptix.com/index.php

Nah, I got it sussed Jared, it's Netcraptor.

Try opening it in stock ie, works fine.

Same thing happens to me with adsl.internode, weird :/

Netcraptor :D

yeah there plans look awsome :D

but yer the adsl market is sooooo broad so hard to choose one, i dont thinkt here is any BEST adsl provider, i think there is just alot of good ones

going on other peoples experiences in whirlpool, good luck if you need customer support, their service seems to be hot and cold. I haven't found anyone that i know on em, was very curious as it grabbed my eye in bbchoice too.

yeah who is on them

they seem pretty decent imo - wanna get some tracerts :p

spose whingepool is the best place for that ;)

Looking at their webpage...I would say I wouldn't trust them...I can imagine it being run by 2 dudes from a back garage :)

connect.com.au arent that good, they are AAPT and in the past they were running a very bad network .. bute I guess lately it hasnt been too bad since Netspace is using them and the netspace network is excellent

well i just signed up for netspace

FREE transfer from iinet

how good is that, and the plan is $10 CHEAPER then iinet

weee i'm excited

Netspace has a damn good network, I have been with them for nealry 1 1/2 - 2 years and no complaints here (cept for pricing :) ) You will get free data from any customer in qld on these isp's -

I just rang up Lithoptix and they seem great !

One of my friends from school is also on these, didnt know until i asked him and he had no complaints at all.

we've had nothing but trouble with our ozforces, please let us know how it turns out with these guys :-)

Sure, IMHO i believe Lithoptix will be very different to Oz-Forces as Lithoptix is on ConnectAU and Ozforces are on Comindico, as Darius said Netspace is on ConnectAU as well and have a stable network...
Im getting signed up soon, let you know how it goes

*fingers crossed*

£20 for unlimited :P

you can get unlimited 256k adls here for $60 as well....

What speed is that mooby.
My uncle lives in the UK and has either blueyonder or NTL unlim cable, there quite expensive yes ?

My 28k dial-up is $25 a month..

My ADSL = free :P

free noob :p

wow... dialup, go back to the 90's old man.

wat about g4..?
www.g4.com.au
im in the market for a new isp too, unlim.. wats the go ey :P

actual for the record they are nation wide and have over 400 customers.

telstra page = no adsl for you, no cable for you

iinet page = you can get adsl, congradulations! but after doing the actual check, oops, no you can't after all.

Telstra tech 1 = no adsl for you, you on rim!
telstra tech 2 = err, your exchange isnt even adsl enabled

councillor gail mcpherson, local rep = Soz man, i can't do anything about it. in fact, i wanted to get broadband too but can't. you should talk to your federal rep.

fed rep (gary hardgrave), = no response at all.

56k still going strong after 3 yrs

if your desperate ever thought of a satellite system ?

Thats kinda pointless, since you still require a dialup connection for the uploads. :) 1 connection for the price of 2!!

no good satellite plans either... and since you have to both dial in and rely on decent weather the connection tends to be fairly unstabled (i've tried a satellite link before, was with ihug last time. just not worth it, i got more done with a decent dialup connection)

I'll be signing up with them sometime early next month :)

Hopfully I'm not too far from exchange and all will be fine, I plan to go on the F3 plan the 1.5mbit unlimited one.

Their main HQ is based in Arana Hills.

lol OMG 400 people!!

My ADSL = free :P

yeah i bet ur mummy and daddy paid for your adsl

If your going to go with Lithoptix then I'd advise to give this a read first. Its a friends tale of pain with their Customer Service.

haha he wanted what 18 static IP's ?
no wonder they had trouble they had to move him to a business plan....

Yeah true, his requirements are eccentric.. but regardless of the plan it just shows how the customer service is.

Not returning calls, not having a 1300 number available, etc etc.

Other than being uncontactable, I'd signup for them in a flash with those juicy unlimited accounts.

I saw a tracert that was pretty decent aside from the 50 ms ping to sydney, surely thats not normal for adsl?

I Should be getting D.S.L August according to the telstra rollout plan. I am probably going to get lithoptix. I need unlimited DSL because i have a few people using the connection and i cant really cap them because they are paying for it :p lol. The only isp's i know of that have unlimited are Ozforces and Lithoptix and i was just wondering which is better?

Lithoptix is about $70 cheaper then Ozforces for there 1500/256 Unlim plan.

A lot of people have been complaining about ozforces, but then you could say the same about lithoptix. ozforces is a comindico reseller and they have had s***loads of issues lately, theres at least 1 reseller talking about fair use policies. Comindico is getting an upgrade in august apparently, I would wait and see how they go with the upgrade befor I decided.

Comdinco ISP's use like a 30:1 (30 users to 1 mbit) ratio

from what ive heard litho use a 12:1 ratio or something

just a rumor that i saw on whirlpool. Ne ways .. yea the POP is in Brisbane atm .. so obviously all internet traffic gets routed through brisbane .. thus giving Brisbane users the best speed / ping etc.

kthnks :)
