If you have a billing inquiry we will investigate the matter and respond within the month

Take your time, no really, don't rush, anytime in the next month is fine.....

866061 2010-03-11 23:11:00 Mine's nearly back to normal, must be the lunchtime rush slowing things down, about 3.5 KM from the exchange, 900M from a cabinet that MIGHT be ours, ADSL2, XNet Fusion www.speedtest.net
Consumer is not wildly different

866062 2010-03-11 23:15:00 consumer test 1.62 up .73 down
speedtest net 6.34 up .72 down
For ***** sake the difference in these 2 tests is mind numbing
I will throw on my asdl2 router on sunday hope its a bit faster.

866063 2010-03-11 23:28:00 Wow just did a speedtest.net test and got this. www.speedtest.net
and an Xnet speedtest.
Download speed: 4510 kbps and Upload: 130kbps
And finally Consumer Speed test
Download speed: 5.51 mbps and Upload 129 kbps
So an average of around 4.6 mbps.
So why is there such a big change from my results last night? "consumer link 1.09mbps. xnet 2.5mbps."

866066 2010-03-12 00:00:00 that is insane. NZ will never get that high. nedkelly (9059)
866067 2010-03-12 00:19:00 Ha,
Got a reply, In my email I pointed out I replicated the reported speeds on a NZ server and via the speedtest hosted at Xnet.

Hi ****,

Yes those speeds look fine, bear in mind that test is located in Australia
so speeds will be slower compared to NZ etc.
