I know I have probably missed out a few so you can add those via a posting if you like.

597025 2007-10-02 03:53:00 Orcon for phone and BB. Happy so far. winmacguy (3367)
597026 2007-10-02 03:55:00 ihug used to be good back when i signed up, but has pissed me off many a time since, and especially as of late.... that 18month period better be over by now :mad: motorbyclist (188)
597027 2007-10-02 03:57:00 Yup -Xnet, only been with them since last week, and so far so good.

HEAPS better than what I was paying for dialup @ Ihug.

And cheaper, for the speed!

I get around 250KB/sec from most international servers, 500-1000KB/sec from most NZ servers and 750KB/sec+ from really good ones (like MS, Adobe etc) all over the world. Torrents always hit 600KB/sec+.

It's very reliable too, basically never drops out.
