I'm at my in-law's lake house. They don't seem to care about fast internet up here. :(
Fortunately I don't need it for too much, but my wife watching a video could slow it down pretty easily.

Your "download" speed is measured in megaBYTES were as your "line speed" is measured in megaBITS. a difference of 8 bits in a Byte.
5.00Mb/s
Devided by 8 =
0.625 MBps or 625 KBps

Cable is the only high speed internet currently and it only coveres a very select area, speeds UPTO 100/2 or something like that. Its also a lot more expensive then ADSL, $100 for 500GB per month vs $60 unlimited with TPG. I would go with Telstra and not Optus if its available.

(Other than the NBN witch is slowly being rolled out)
Have a look at this map and check when you might be able to get NBN (Fibre to the Home) Speeds of 25/5, 100/40.

My girlfriend wants me to move to Canada. Here in the states, even my phone has ~25-30 Mbps speeds and no cap, no throttling. The idea of having a data cap at home may be hard for me to wrap my head around.

Have they ever actually said anything about your cap? Warnings? Charges for overages?

From what I'm reading the US have strange internets as well. At least I see a lot of people from the US complaining about it.

120GB is quite a lot though, unless you are downloading tons of stuff and streaming HD movies 24/7.

120GB isn't remotely enough for me :roll:

I don't think that it's physically possible for me to dl 120gb in a month, rofl. Internet speed is so crap

It's in the contract. A webpage pops up to notify you when you use 75% and 100% of your bandwidth. I use Rogers so the overage charges depend on which plan you have, they range from $5 to $2.50 per GB over your limit. Rogers is stupid and like to rip you off so... If you do end up moving to Canada I would highly recommend using TechSavvy. They have a min cap of 300GB with unlimited plans available. It's alot cheaper and they offer faster speeds for a lower price. My dad hates change so he refuses to switch, so i'm stuck with overpriced slow internet. Shaw is also pretty good if you're in the BC region.
