Hi

Sorry for the off topic but this ia probably the best place to get the
answer.

Is there a place on the net that has details on standards that relate to
the distance that you can be froma the telephone exchange to get ADSL?

I've seen it mentioned here that that distance is 18,000 feet (which is
equal to 6 kilometres).  A friend's company is trying to get an ADSL 
and they are 5.4kms from the exchange.  Every Australian's favourite
phone compnay, Telstra, is saying the maximum distances is 4.2kms so ADSL 
is a no go (though rumour has it that they are using French made equipment 
that's not really upto scratch)

Thankx in advance

Marc
