435030 2006-03-03 01:11:00 I wouldn't write off IHUG for one bad days performance reported by one person.

For all we know Ninjabears DNS server settings might not be correct, or someother problem that is yet to surface...

It's amazing me how fast people are jumping on the bandwagon to dis the larger organizations the moment on person suggests there is a problem, somehow, somewhere....

This is day one of the connection, so user problems are far from ruled out

435031 2006-03-03 04:02:00 Still getting 600 ping for playing online while my dialup is 360


I chose the plan because it was the best plan I could find that had a large amount of data,cheapest and the fastest connection in nz.My father was a bit shocked that i am charged $89.95 a month for 2mbps

I am hoping april would reveal something special


In the manual it was said to let it obtain dns server address automatically

435032 2006-03-03 04:11:00 Is this 600ms ping to a NZ server or US?

& What game are you trying to play?

Front page of the IHUG site says 2mbps $29.95
So how come your paying $90 for what they are advertising at $30?
