I have reset my nokia 5230 to recover memory and I notice in connectivity that the network is 2degrees. Internet etc is still Vodafone. Does anybody know?

There is a 2degress site there, also Matamata. Not sure if Cambridge site is live - most likely yes. I know Matamata site is live. Chorus has spent $1.4 billion on making their ADSL broadband network faster. Why not spend a couple of hundred to make sure you are getting the most out of your connection? Geekzone special price: $150* for master splitter install, normally $200+ through your ISP. Auckland and Waikato areas. *Travel charges may apply. Additional costs may apply for complex installs. I install - Naked DSL, DSL Master Splitters, VoIP, RBI Rural Broadband. Also a dealer for WorldxChange. Need help in Auckland or Waikato?

You're probably picking up the signal from Airport Road, Hamilton.

I happened to be walking around Cambridge on Saturday. I saw a portable cell site set up behind some shops in Victoria St. I pulled out my phone and sure enough, I had full bars of 2degrees. I don't know whether this cell was a 2degrees site or one of the other carriers, but I know it's there and that I definitely did have 2degrees coverage.

I will go and take a look. I cant wait for Cambridge to be in 2degrees data zone. Do 2degrees publish a roll out of new sites?

It was down the walkway to Wilson St between the GPO Bar & Brasserie and the AMI insurance office.

Hi guys, I can confirm it's a COW (cell on wheels). We've got 7 of them dotted around the country at the following sites - Matamata Cambridge Blenheim (3 sites) Picton Cromwell These give more of our customers access to mobile broadband around New Zealand. Cheers ^POB
