Best Datacenter for Australian Traffic?
Anyone tried from many different ISP's in Australia?
I will need to setup a server in Australia at some stage as I do get some complaints of slowness, but I really want to stay with linode, I used to spend $600 a month for two dedicated servers here and I had nothing but trouble….

HUZZAH, it's STICKIED in the Performance forum!
I'm truly sorry for any mental anguish I may have caused:)
I think I will move most of my servers to Freemont.
Might look into cachefly or similar as well.

+1 for Fremont. It has pretty good route from a few places that I've tested with (mainly from East Coast in Australia). I'm running a site on a Linode at Fremont with 3 million page views/month, 95% Australian traffic – and no one has complained yet
Not sure about CacheFly though. They have only WAIX POP in Australia as far as I know (which means not accessible from anyone not on WAIX), and sometimes I'm getting weird routes to Japan.

Im in Australia and was ondering what would be the best data center for ping times to here?
I'm in Melbourne, and based on tests through 3 different ISP's (Telstra Data Center, Internode home account and iiNet home account) Atlanta had the best speeds for me, so I've got 3 Linode's there.
