Adsl 2/2+ (2 Viewers)

that would be faster than cable :O?

Yeah, a lot faster. Considering that Cable's maximum downstream data rate is 6 Mbps (I think) and you have to share that with other users using your service.

Cable is 10mbps

Apparently Korea, has something called VDSL, speed of up to, 100mbs
Thats like using the internet as if it were your own home network =D

ADSL2 goes up to 8mbs i think - the max potential of the ADSL modem. The only differene is the other end.

ADSL2 goes up to 12Mbps, and ADSL2+ goes up to 26Mbps.

oh, lolz, then how come everyone is saying ADSL2 hasnt been available in aus, if iprimus has already?

iPrimus isn't using ADSL2. ADSL1 goes up to 8Mbps, so iPrimus is still only using ADSL1.

The price difference between ADSL1/ADSL2 will probably be large enough to discourage most users who currently have ADSL1 or who just want a 'faster than dialup always on' connection..

Hhhmmm....that's what I'm wondering.
Would ADSL2/2+ "residential" plans cost $100+/month, or could home users expect a 26Mbps connection for ~$50/month? (which would be nice)
