Just change the modem (Linksys WAG 54GP2) settings, then take a coffee break while it coughs and wheezes through rebooting. As far as I can notice there is not really any difference, but we are a few Km from the exchange. (Though I notice there are some shiny new cabinets about 250 m up the road.) I hope some of the Nelson fraternity have great boosts though. |

| 709089 | 2008-10-11 08:33:00 | A piece in the local Nelson paper about it today. Saying 3 new cabinets were in place and about 700 customers had shifted over. Interesting tonight that even though I'm not on any new cabinet and still on plain adsl. I'm downloading a movie torrent at a solid 760 kB/s! other downloads are also flying. Perhap's those 700+ users were blocking the pipe :D |
