    Nothing surprising about that....we only have a population of approximately 22 million, of which 10 million are within a 100km radius of Sydney. Most of Australia is uninhabited.

    Broadband rates/speed has nothing to do with it.

    One thing that does come to mind, pinging a lot of devices will result in a 100% packet loss, this is by design for security purposes so many of the available IPv4 addresses will appear to be unused even when they are actually in use

    Most routers will have an option to "not respond to ping on WAN interface" or similar, this option will cause the ping request from the external device not to be answered this giving the impression that there is no device connected. the reasoning behind this facility is that a lot of malicious hackers will ping multiple IP ranges and then concentrate on those that reply showing that there is a device connected

    You don't want Australians to live in the middle part do you? It's very hot in the middle part you know?
