| 451970 | 2006-05-04 03:39:00 | Pass. We'll have to wait. No point in talking about it anyway, the news / herald site said nothing is going to happen till next year. I spose it depends on when things start rolling, isp's will be be able to give their own speeds/prices.... |

| 451972 | 2006-05-04 05:12:00 | Dunno, depends where ya live. If in Wyndham where they have more cows than computers, don't expect anything but the smell of lucerne every now and then. Here in Taranaki we seem to get alright speeds. So when/if it goes up, what speed you get will depend on cows to computers ratio Another thing to consider is the sheep to computer ratio. Apparently the more sheep that get helped through the fence in your area, the lower speeds you should expect. Wyndham, being near Gore, will get speeds way below par |

But before someone takes you seriously its got nothing to do with location or Gore for that matter. Being 400m from the exchange my router says 4288. Actual speed is a result of the lack of hardware in the exchnage and the new contention ratios. However Telecom is now working on it. |

| 451977 | 2006-05-04 11:10:00 | This is what my wireless router tells meim getting but its not right as my download speed is always up and down between 748kbps and 1.5mbps a second day or night and the wee hours of the morning but mostly it hovers around 1.5mbps.Instead of 3.5mbpsSNR Margin 13 25 dB Line Attenuation 51 58 dB Data Rate 4288 160 kbps |
