I need to get advice from broadband users about national traffic and what I can expect to find nationaly. Game servers Mirror sites Local downloads etc etc I don't know about game sites, or much about mirror sites and downloading, but in my experience over the last three months with Xnet, just general browsing round news sites and similar, the national traffic component saves me about 100 - 200 MB a month (56.26MB this month so far, and I've been away for 5 days). Every little bit helps. Good luck with Xnet. Lizard |

| 421729 | 2006-01-16 22:12:00 | thanks for the info. Do you get a report on your traffic and where it's come from? as you've said how much you've saved so far |

| 421730 | 2006-01-16 22:33:00 | thanks for the info. Do you get a report on your traffic and where it's come from? as you've said how much you've saved so far Xnet provide an account page where you can check the traffic you've used so far - it breaks it down to local, national, and international, with your cap and the total traffic used accountable to your cap. I imagine it's similar to what other ISPs provide. Their webmail function is also quite good, providing you with a diary, notes and tasks facilities similar to MS Outlook. You can export data from Outlook in CSV format, and import it to the webmail client to access while roaming. I don't know if other ISPs provide this. Cheers Lizard |

| 421731 | 2006-01-16 22:39:00 | If you're looking for national game and download servers...i got some 4 ya :) http://www.gpdownloads.co.nz/ - gameplanet (game servers + downloads) http://files.inspire.net.nz/ - inspire net has some game demos etc If you wanna find NZ servers for games, I suggest downloading ASE (all seeing eye), with that you can see all the local servers for any specific game you have installed. Ususally there's some Xtra servers, maybe one Ihug, few iconz, and gameplanet. |

| 421734 | 2006-01-17 04:13:00 | Get yourself a DC++ client, such as revconnect. Then join these hubs: dc.silverserver.co.nz dc.phrozen.co.nz they are NZ only hubs so the traffic is national. |
