[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1452989, member: 42497"] In rural Australia on 24Mbps broadband, the speed you quote is well below my 9Mbps average. To do with old telephone lines, distances from exchanges, processor speed and modem/router capabilities. To be honest have never noticed the slightest difference between the Airport Extreme, Netcomm and Linksys modems they all seem to connect at similar speeds. Check to see if the modem is 802.11G rated. As a rule ISP here do not supply modems you purchase either from them or bring your own. Cannot answer about ISP as you are overseas from me, however most seem to be offering a similar service to their customers, and to retain them. [/QUOTE]
