| 1482941 | 2021-12-17 18:22:00 | On a whim I just did a speedtest and this is what I saw! Not bad for a 100/20 plan. :) I don't know whether it is a Christmas present from Voyager or Chorus have done the speed upgrade without telling anyone. Not complaining though. 11228 |

| 1482942 | 2021-12-17 18:53:00 | Chorus upgraded the base fibre plan from 100/20 to 300/100. Most providers are doing the right thing and passing that on to customer |

Most providers are doing the right thing and passing that on to customer I knew that was the plan, but (a) I was expecting to be advised and (b) as Waiatarua was nearly the last place in AKL to get fibre I wasn't expecting it yet. |

| 1482946 | 2021-12-17 19:48:00 | Says on a whim did a speed test, not because they noticed it . So not sure why they’d then was to go 1gbps down . I have a hard time believing anyone could saturate that . Maybe with 10 streaming devices at once . |

| 1482947 | 2021-12-17 22:05:00 | One thing I've noticed. If I use the Ookla desktop app I get the speed I attached, but if I use the browser version I get maybe 126mbps down , but still 80-90 up. What's happening there? | Tony (4941) | ||
| 1482948 | 2021-12-18 06:54:00 | Finally they realised that 20Mbit up on fibre is a joke in this day and age... | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1482949 | 2021-12-18 07:45:00 | Finally they realised that 20Mbit up on fibre is a joke in this day and age... When I saw the new numbers I had a flashback to when I rejoiced at a 57. whatever it was modem. |

| 1482950 | 2021-12-18 22:54:00 | Some speedtests use a close server and get better results, essentially just checking your ISP connection speed Some connect to overseas servers and you get bottlenecks along the way. The real world speeds tend to vary between the two. Or something like that. Spark emailed me about the change and I did a test when I read it, got something like 308/105 or thereabouts. I do recall it was slightly over. Just repeated it out of interest 11230 |
