So, after over a year of Chorus coming and saying my house wiring was why i disconnected everytime rain started or stopped, i finally moved to fibre.

Funnily enough, the guy who installed fibre just told me the line in my ETP was stuffed, and that even him touching it caused drop outs.

But all in all im happy, better ping, better speeds.

[Kopfjaeger]

nice, much sticker shock ?

[DarkVirus]

Same price as my broadband connection, same data, same phone plan.

Not sure if its released yet, but its a good start for fibre in NZ imo.

[LeadCollector]

How come it still says TelstraClear and not Vodafone :p

[DarkVirus]

Because speedtest probably still has the IP's from that network marked as TCL.

[swindle]

Not terrible considering its a Telecom connection and I'm running the test on wireless.

In any case, super jelly of those speeds though.

[Slingshot]

What was that? lololol

Now let's compare our dick sizes!

It is true SM. I have the biggest wang.

I won't believe this until I can see it with my own eyes, and touch it with my own hands.

What's the plan? 30/10?

[Spigalau]

What's the plan? 30/10?

Do Voda actually have any published plans ? last I checked (last week) you could 90 day trial, but on day 91 they had no clue as to what the costs were ?

What was that? lololol

He says from work.

The linux isos come down at > 11MB/s
 

He says from work.

Nope. Work is only 10.

[deadmeatwalking]

cant complain
no data cap

[Pitchey]

Hurnnn?

[Pyromanik]

He says from work.

No.
Smells like cable.
And no, that's not a euphamisim.

Then again, maybe it is.
Cable is 100Mbit, not Mb/s.

[swindle]

Fuck it, at the end of the day the internet still sucks for 99.99% of the world.

Do you even lift bro?

[Spigalau]

Still can't get my head around why we need to have fibre (right now), when you can get this off copper.

Because I thought that kind of performance, requires you be to within 700m (or something) of the exchange point?

I was like "Hey, I didn't post that!"

Then I saw Pyro changed avatars.

Just off a regular cabinet - exchange is 3K's away.

The issue I have with fibre is the last 20m, from curbside to house. If only there was an ecomonical way of getting those connections done.
