1122297 2010-07-25 05:37:00 Has anybody had any experiences with the ubergroup wireless isp from Whangarei. They are supposed to be expanding their services to the Far North with a 'Ultrafast 3Mbit/sec Broadband' but their own website doesn't appear to have been updated since Nov 09 for more info. Just wondering if they are a viable wireless option... BigBadBob (14963)

Answered your own question, I'd say.

Possibly, but I still wouldn't mind hearing from someone that has had some experience with them.

1122300 2010-07-25 23:14:00 Is it for general home use? I wouldn't call 3m/bit Ultrafast, but still more than sufficient for the vast majority of home use :) Chilling_Silence (9)

It would seem that as you have had no replies from actual users of this service to date among PressF1 members that not many here use same. Perhaps there is a good reason for this.

Yep, looks like that could be so. They have supposed to have been around since 2005. I haven't heard of them before and I have been involved with computers since waaay before then. I know there are quite a few Northland folk on here so was just looking for reviews & experience that I could maybe pass on (or not) to clients.

Will be interesting to see prices, true speeds, real coverage etc. Supprised to see uber affiliated with a company with their rep tho. i.e.
