[plug] TPG / Wondercom Fiber to the Building

[byron ester]

I hear you Michael...

I just transferred from my Amnet DSL service to their NBN offering.
Latency definitely dropped, from about 85ms to Sydney to about 60.
Still quite high considering.

Would like to hear how you go with your upgrade and what the latency is
like.

Cheers
Byron
