What a fucking ripoff! Here in the good ol USA I pay $27 a month for 8meg down don't remember the up and the speed test is close to as advertised. No useage limits either.

My download speed has changed from as slow as 1.9 at peak busy times to as fast as 5.5 during quiet less busy times.



It has gone as slow as 4.5 and as fast as 9.1.

Telstra is $30 per month cheaper and very much faster

No contest!

i see some people are getting near 20mbps,that's amazing!!

On my result it says slower than 55 percent of nz,that's pretty poor imo.

$1 a liter gas and 30 pack of beer for $15 it is worth the sacrifice.

USA's a B I G place. Lots of great places, some crap ones too: Just like every other country.

Very true. If you have not been there it is hard to explain just how big it really is compaired to NZ (and most other places too).
