| 497802 | 2006-11-10 02:28:00 | 5. At 31 March 2004 Telecom had 103,000 JetStream customers - 66,000 residential and 37,000 business customers (a broadband uptake of ~2.9, assuming 10% of total connections are provided by other providers). Over the last 12 months, Telecom JetStream numbers have grown by 66%, or 42,000. Telecom says its on target for 100,000 residential broadband customers by the end of 2004. 6. New Zealand would have to double its present number of broadband access lines to be ranked in the top half of OECD countries' performance. This is a moving target as other most other OECD countries are rapidly improving broadband access uptake. 7. A factor that is not currently measured by broadband uptake is the capability of the broadband link, i.e. the data speed supported and the capability to support advanced telecommunication services such voice over IP, video conferencing etc. This will become increasing important as broadband access services develop and new services and applications emerge to exploit that capability. www.med.govt.nz |

| 497803 | 2006-11-10 02:48:00 | 2004 data is too old :-), this is from Stats NZ 3/2006. I haven't found a list of ISPs with numbers. www.stats.govt.nz "Internet subscriber connection type The number of subscribers using analog connection technology (also known as dial-up) decreased 6.6 percent from 30 September 2005, to 812,300 subscribers. Analog is still the most used connection technology, with 63 percent of total subscribers at 31 March 2006, down from 70 percent of subscribers at 30 September 2005. Non-analog subscribers (also known as broadband subscribers) jumped 29 percent from 30 September 2005, to 475,700 subscribers. Of the non-analog connections, Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) continues to be the most common connection technology. The ranking of the next most common non-analog connection technologies in descending order was: cellular, wireless connections, cable, satellite, and other. This ranking is the same as measured at 30 September 2005." |

Wait I need better a modem and a hundred and fifty for wire alteration well its a bargain, that used to be two hundred and fifty. Just to get started up, lol. Over a grand for the first yr just for internet, that's cheap. | Nomad (952) | ||
