Can't find it. Did it disappear?
Found:
ADSL
ADSL1 Bundled
ADSL2+Phone
Naked ADSL2
Wireless

No sign of ADSL2.

Does it mean that Exetel is providing ADSL2 from Optus only,not anymore from Povertel?

Just when I'm desperate enough to do my step to change to ADSL2 found this:
http://johnl.blogs.exetel.com.au/in...Continuing-The-Process-Of-Simplification.html
So it was with some great reluctance that I wrote to AAPT ending the relationship with 'Powertel' for the supply of ADSL2 services. Powertel had been the very first supplier we had signed an agreement with back in early January 2004. By 'end' I mean advising them that we will not be offering services based on their infrastructures going forward but we will continue to support our own customers who are connected via the old Powertel networks for ADSL2 and SHDSL and Ethernet.

This decision wasn't based on financial considerations but on the operational difficulties, and therefore level of customer unhappiness generated, since AAPT took over Powertel and began the inevitable processes of 'integrating' the old Powertel provisioning and fault resolution processes into the, very different, AAPT provisioning and fault resolution processes. Needless to say AAPT was heavily retail oriented with, unsurprisingly, retail based processes which are completely different to the totally wholesale oriented services provided very successfully to Exetel over the previous four years.
I do not want an Optus bundle from Internode or any other ISP.
Internode is still building their DSLAM in my exchange,don't know how long more it would take to complete it.

Thought that I'll jump to Exetel's unbundled ADSL2, it does not exist anymore for new customers.
