| 479975 | 2006-08-22 07:57:00 | Well I'm no expert on Wireless . Seeing as no-one else has any suggestions try asking over at www . gpforums . co . nz seeing as theres plenty of gamers there - no doubt they'll have suggestions on best ISPs for gaming . |

| 479976 | 2006-08-22 08:46:00 | Tro, it is well accepted wireless has a greater latency than "DSL". For gaming this is DEFINATELY not an option. I have read Telstra are really annal about any kind of bad debt, heard this type of story before. I would try and speak to at least a supervisor or manager, persistence is probably the key. There are several other companies that re-sell Telstra Cable, just can't for the life of me remember a name. One does free national, but there international speeds are pathetic compared to Telstra Cable. |

| 479978 | 2006-08-23 00:26:00 | Gasp (http://www.gasp.co.nz/) is another wireless option. No idea what they're like though. Check the GPForums as posted above to see what other gamers in NZ use. |
