886415 2010-07-09 21:18:00 The letter said 13th of August. What do you mean by it "has gone"?

What I mean is that I cannot connect to the internet. On Windows 7, my router is showing up but it says that I have no internet access.

So Telecom haven't disconnected Big Time User's yet?

886416 2010-07-09 21:58:00 Actually don't worry.

I just found out my dad just recently changed to the Telecom Pro Plan a few days ago without telling me. There's some deal where you get $20 off in the first few months.

I'm a bit annoyed as I wanted to use the Big Time plan as much as I can before August 13.........Oh well :-(

886421 2010-07-13 00:42:00 Can someone please refresh my memory; is this linespeed likely to mean ADSL, or ADSL2+:


Slingshot Broadband is available in your area and your line speed is estimated to be greater than 4Mbps.

886422 2010-07-13 01:02:00 Can someone please refresh my memory; is this linespeed likely to mean ADSL, or ADSL2+:

ADSL can reack speeds of up to 7.6Mbps, ADSL2+ can reach speeds of 24Mbps.

The slingshot line checker told me the same thing but I can't get ADSL2+ as I'm to far away, but my speeds can go above 4mbps.

So it could mean either, but if you go here (www.telecomwholesale.co.nz)and type in your address, you should find out whether you'll be able to get ADSL2+.

Thanks David - should've pointed out I'm currently on ADSL2+ with Telecom, but was looking to move to SS; does the fact that my exchange has already been upgraded automatically mean that ADSL2+ is available through other ISP's, provided I purchase a plan that allows for it?

886424 2010-07-13 02:09:00 Provided they're wholesaling off Telecom Chorus, then yeah, you basically get ADSL2+ as well :) (AFAIK) Chilling_Silence (9)
