820106 2009-10-13 06:38:00 Seems to be the further away you are the better :eek:

I'm in Wainui - wgtn is slow as, to ChCh is better, but to tauranga is best.

Mind you that speed test is no where near accurate on cable. www.speedtest.net

When I had a modem problem once the tech from Telstra loaded up their own password protected site - it really flew, as it was accurate.

You know, I average 1Mbps.
Youtube often pauses.

I don't moan cause at least I have BB, I know far too many people still stuck on dialup with no options of anything else.

How is it we once sent letters on paper, then we once sent them on 2400 baud modems, and people moan now????

820109 2009-10-13 07:43:00 people moan now????

Well, Its not 1963, and far superior technology has been around for quite awhile now.

I bet you would moan if you were forced to game on an Atari 2600, But I sure as hell didn't.....in 1982.....
