"Currently there are no known problems on the Xtra network" When they hadn't been accepting mail for 3-4 days... it was repeatedly brought to their attention, and there were still "no known problems on the Xtra network" An Xtra mailbox can't be POPed from any other network... The list of cons is surprisingly large, plus they are definitely not competitively priced. The last thing Telecom needs is more money. |

| 239611 | 2004-05-27 10:47:00 | I have not used this ISP but the price is certainly right. http://www.eznet.co.nz/ $16 per month for unlimited 56k access. |

| 239613 | 2004-05-27 12:55:00 | I was with Paradise dial-up for 4 years before switching to DSL with Orcon. I always found Paradise very reliable; I would get connection speeds of 52.2kbps - 53kbps almost all the time. I had their plan of 250 hours per 28 days for $20.00. | xmojo1 (4630) | ||
| 239614 | 2004-05-27 20:13:00 | sorry gotta say, everyone seems to like slingshot cause its cheap, but the three people i know who have been on it said it was crap | Budda (2736) | ||
| 239615 | 2004-05-27 21:34:00 | I'm with xmojo1. I've been with Paradise since October 2002 with no speed complaints. $20 for 250 hours suits me fine and the 10mb allowance for my homepage is great! | oggy (1250) | ||
| 239616 | 2004-05-27 21:47:00 | err, perhaps I should have said "I agree with xmojo1" ... instead of "I'm with xmojo1". Just thought someone may now be looking for an ISP called xmojo1. Doh! | oggy (1250) | ||
| 239617 | 2004-05-27 21:52:00 | ya..not bad..i have heard some of the names of ISP never knew existed. Snap, Eznet. cool thanx a lot guys. Well i have used Slingshot and Paradise when they first came out..and they were really slow. Then i went to Xtra and never had a problem since then. Im thinking..its beta to stay with Xtra even though its a little bit more than others but atleast you would never have problem with speed. Maybe move onto Adsl later on.. :) |
