543525 2007-04-23 08:35:00 Hmm for quite a while now, I seem to get constantly disconencted then reconnected from the internet at random times after 6pm onwards.

I'm with Xnet and located in South Auckland.

Anyone else having issues?

Different part of the country altogether (Palmerston North), but still on Xnet - no problems at all.

Lizard: Do you notice any difference in internet speed say during mid semester break (for the uni students) or summer break and other times?
It seems to me that if i get here a few days early before classes resume, I seem to be able to get faster speeds (hey I got over 4mbit once!) I usually average around 2.5-3.

Now back to the topic...

Nope, no issues here. Am also on xnet.

Speeds on some public torrent trackers have been very good of late, reaching up to 250KB/s, but I don't know if that could be attributed to the presence or otherwise of the students. They have just come back from the mid-semester break I believe - I might try a torrent tonight to see if there is any difference.
