Well if it's like our fibre install was then you pay for the installation which is around $200 depending on how long you decide to sign up for and that includes the router from your ISP. It also includes the media converter from the fibre installer. :pf1mobmini: |

| 1217132 | 2011-07-15 13:52:00 | If I could get 5mbps unlimited then I would be happy. atm I get 15mbps, but I go through my cap so damn fast, and I end up having to tell mum to hold off downloading her youtube videos because we're at 20/30gb with more than a week left till rollover. It's annoying as hell. What point is there to all that speed when there's nothing to fuel it? |

| 1217133 | 2011-07-15 21:01:00 | There had better be no caps. Caps are a money scavenging act from ISP's. 50/100 for $55 a month sounds good, currently $55 with orcon 12gb 1/11 mbps and boy do I hate that data cap. Cant do much about it though. |

| 1217134 | 2011-07-15 21:09:00 | You realise those prices are what the ISPs will pay? So they still have to add their markup. :pf1mobmini: |

| 1217135 | 2011-07-15 23:40:00 | The ISPs still get screwed by international data prices, so why should they get rid of caps? They should provide free/cheap access to sites that are cached in NZ though. | Greven (91) | ||
| 1217136 | 2011-07-16 00:13:00 | The prices look good - I'd be prepared to pay $55+GST/mo for 100/50MBit/s + data costs. | somebody (208) | ||
