Anything better than Xtra for DSL?

Are there better providers of Jetstream speed DSL than Xtra at around the same price?

Hi

Dont know about jetstream but paradise.net are much better than xtra with jetstart - havent noticed any capping etc.

'Anything better than Xtra for DSL?'

Yes, even a steaming pile of horse crap would move data faster then Xtra at the moment.

Check out Paradise, World-net, Web Internet etc. There are heaps of others which I can't remember at the moment.

Especially don't touch Xtra if you want Jetstart as this is slower than dialup.

My Jetstart is far faster than my dial up. Epecially handy for Multiplayer Games. Most of the time my Dial Up couldn't manage getting into any servers. When I did get into a server I would have a lag of around 350-575ms now I get 80-90ms

(Connecting to a New Zealand server)

I've seen far faster connections then my little Jetstart DSL but anything was better then Dial Up.

One thing to note. In the next we while Paradise and ClearNET bandwidth are going to be joined. They are both going to be going through Clear CLIX network.

I am going to see how the go. Might have to change ISP's.

Don't forget to check the data limits. As far as I know, all ISPs except Xtra charge per meg once you use a certain amount. Granted, 10 gig or so is a lot, but the idea of Jetstart was it was a slower, *flat rate* option. Xtra has no download limits. I looked at changing to another ISP but didn't want to run the risk of going over the allocated data...
