Broadband speed - Auckland - WTF has happened

[Lias]

Have done in previous years, but probably not going to bother this year. Costs too much for what it is, the network is slow, and our clan doesn't really have a game to be competitive in any more (BF2 is nigh on dead).

PingZero is where it's at mate - $25 for the same length of time, plus free pizza, and it's R18, which not only means that alcohol is recommended, but results on all the little CS kiddies being unable to come.

Yeah my game "was" 2142, but that's not even on offer. My clan is entering a COD4 team (serious business) and a TF2 team (those of us not good enough to make the COD4 team lol).

I might have to come up to one of those pingzero lans at some stage.

Your area was probably cabinetised lately.
Have a look on telecomwholesale.co.nz/maps and check.

or type your address in here and it will give you a date when you will be ADSL2'd

http://www.telecom.co.nz/broadband/speed/adsl2

Also applies if you get your porn from someone else who wholesales from Telecom.

AFAIK only Telescum customers on specific plans can actually connect at ADSL2+ speeds, those of us with other ISP's are out of luck (Except those in the areas where other ISP's have rolled out their own ADSL2+ DSLAM's, such as those who can get onto Orcon+ etc)

I'm not actually aware of any ISP's offering ADSL2+ plans via telecom wholesale.

If your alreay a T customer you don;t have to do anything other that check your DSL modem is set to ASDL2+ and restart it.

It will keep me occupied for a day or two.
On the other hand, one torrent is screaming along at 300-330kB/s at the moment.

Familiar with d-link modems, sir?

bograt... can't get the image of the test result to stick... d'oh!

[pete376403]

A bit off topic - Wellington rather than Auckland, Telstra rather than Telecom. But I just had to share...

[boomer]

There is absolutely no point trying to run a test to there, far too many factors and hops in between. Running the test as close to home gives you a realistic measure of the ability of the end lines right at your house.

As soon as you are onto the exchange etc, you have contention ratios from the ISP, the APE (edit, oops, assuming you're in Auckland), and finally the pipes out of NZ.

Current line... I love it at night, gorgeous latency too...

heheheh
