| 337097 | 2005-03-23 07:41:00 | Go for it mate, I've been with them for nearly 3 years now and I haven't had any problems with them at all. Their helpdesk is great (in my opinion) and they have good deals as you no doubt have seen. cheers chiefnz |

| 337098 | 2005-03-23 09:57:00 | I'm currently with Quicksilver dialup. Up till 6 months ago, I had a good run. Lately though I have been getting crappy connection speeds (esp when its raining in Wellington - where there servers are situated I think) When I switch to broadband I will be switching ISPs (depends on bundling/commerce commission/telecom) |

Our servers are located in all the main centres and in some smaller cities as well. There could be other issues that may cause a slower connection. Feel free to give us a call and we can run through those - 0508 774 583 Ash |

I ve put up with orcon for 4 to 5 months . . . . NO MATTER WHO U GO TO, just DON"T go to to ORCON!!!! You will regret it if you do!!! I gurantee it! Forget about what you heard in the past . . . Orcon is now different, for the worst . . |

| 337102 | 2005-03-23 11:16:00 | I'm on Dial up and connect at reasoanable speeds but get **** download speeds. Their DNS servers aren't that hot as well. At the end of the day the best ISP I ever had was my first years ago. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
| 337103 | 2005-03-23 21:18:00 | I'm currently with Quicksilver dialup. I would consider staying with them if you use their dial-up service currently. I switched from their dial-up to Jetstream and they charged me a lower price. When the new ADSL plans came out they also gave me a discounted price... it may be a good idea to investigate 1st before you write them off. I'm currently paying $19.95/month for a 10GB, 2Mbit connection. cheers chiefnz |

Noticed a problem on phone line yesterday, rung Telecom, they ran their fault test, and yes, my phone line had a fault Am going to hook up a new jack (soon) as the Telecom guy said that my extension was bad, tho the rest of the line is NOW sweet :) Apologies to Quicksilver |
