What sync speed is your modem reporting (up/down) compared to what is
normal for your distance from the exchange (from the maps)?

I wasn't seeing any packet loss IIRC.
You shouldn't have to deal with Telstra as your're not their customer, TPG is.

Keep complaining until you get to Level 2 support, they are the only
ones that can help you. They will create a ticket, monitor the lines
and conditions, ask you to do an isolation test (Unplugging every
other telephony equipment on the line) and keep you apprised of the
situation.

ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my
apartment it is.
