1360824 2013-11-26 04:10:00 That'd be what? 300mbps? To download 20GB in 10 minutes?

I get 25mbps, regularly downloading at approx 2.4MB/sec. Things like the 320MB+ KitKat firmware upgrade, downloaded in under 2 minutes :D

Sorry NO Pukekohe is Auckland now, and the CBD is achievable in 40 mins on a good day.

A good day? School holidays yes, After 8pm and before 6am, yes.
And he's complaining? Other options are around......he should try some parts of the deep South, no Woosh, no BB, No satellite, stuck on dialup - bad dialup.

1360828 2013-11-26 21:12:00 Faster plans are very readily available to *most* suburban areas. If you live that far out of town, you've got to expect that, this country makes no excuses for its rural broadband (Or lack thereof)

I can understand that with people who are actually rural, like farmers, but there are people who are only on the edges of suburbia who still have horrible internet.

Agreed, hence the "most".
