Hi Peter,
I'd go to www.exetel.com.au (if your in NSW) and order a
512/512 connection. If not in NSW do the same with
www.swiftel.com.au.
You really need to flick helstra.
Other than that you are up for 1mb/1mb SHDSL and a big
account each month. I'm confident this will work and you
won't beat exetels price.
Cheers.
