It's hard to rate a Uni, let alone compare to other universities. Most people only go to one Uni in their life, and they all usually hate it and say the other ones are better - hence a rating isn't easy to give.
Overall I'd say RMIT is pretty good and they do try to give students a good experience paired with good facilities. True enough, RMIT's internet does experience problems and drop-outs, but managing internet for thousands of people at a time isn't easy... some buildings really need an upgrade too, and RMIT is *slowly* making their way to them.
Their city placement is ideal for staff and students (unless you want to drive there and pay crazy parking fees), and there are plenty of facilities and study spaces.

I think my main issue with RMIT is the quality of staff they have. I've been in many classes where the teacher is teaching incorrect content, or is teaching in a way noone can understand, or had teachers that are so dull and boring it's impossible to stay awake for an hour lecture, let alone 2 hours...
That being said, I've also had some fantastic lecturers/tutors that I've loved and wish I could have for every class.
In general though, I think the admins need to go to each class and assess it for teaching quality.
