| 528528 | 2007-02-27 07:19:00 | Only realised that they only think 20gb is unlimited when they emailed me a few days ago. Was hosting a chat server and a teamspeak sever on my pc so was eating at the bandwidth. Might be time to upgrade to a online server | shrapz (11932) | ||

Might be time to upgrade to a online server In many countries that offer unlimited bandwidth, they are now imposing quotas of about 20GB. Source BBCs Click program. You can get 50GB of bandwitdth with slingshot for $20 per month ontop of the normal paln, so 150GB additional bandwidth per month would only be $60 which is cheap. |

| 528530 | 2007-02-27 08:44:00 | You should have read the contract. It states, very clearly, this: ...but if people use an unreasonably large amount of data, which we define as more than 20GB in one month, we will contact you and let you know that this isn't the right plan for you. |

They have ADSL2 in some areas but you have to live close to an exchange to get full speed. Broadband needs the government to invest in it, as we can't rely on private companies to invest in NZ best interests. Look at Tranzrail andthe electricity market, where both have underinvested in NZs infrastructure. |

| 528533 | 2007-02-27 09:24:00 | Slingshot. 50gb data block for $40, where did you see $20? | shrapz (11932) | ||
| 528534 | 2007-02-27 10:23:00 | But Orcon doesn't offer 'unlimited', and it never claimed to as far as I'm aware. Orcon DID offer unlimited for $59.95 per month some time back. However they then sent me an Email which basically put the price up to $99.95 if I wanted to keep the same speed which was not all that fast anyway. I bought my own modem which I still have. But I must admit I have never downloaded over 150 gig in a month. In fact my Xtra account peaked at 5.4 Gig in one month recently when I downloaded a DVD with SUSE Linux. |

| 528535 | 2007-02-28 01:25:00 | Slingshot. 50gb data block for $40, where did you see $20? Its in the 'add bandwidth' section in my slingshot control panel. 50Gb for $20 , 10GB for $5 . I suspect that they forgot to update their website with the new prices, which doesn't surprise me as they are slack with things like that. |
