Will these become permanent? 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? Click my email button, or email me direct: [my user name] at geekzonemail dot com

Couldn't park one in Ohakune over the winter could ya? Dion 2DegreesCare: 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 The cup is over engineered

can I now buy a data zone modem or does the man who changes the coverage map have to do some thing?

GEOMAX: can I now buy a data zone modem or does the man who changes the coverage map have to do some thing? can I assume that as I am in a 2degrees cell site area it is in a 2degrees data zone area or is switched of until announced etc?

Yes, as long as you're actually on the 2degrees network broadband zone packs will work. We don't announce them as BB zones until the work is finished though, because the effective coverage borders will move around while the RF guys are optimising it. So, go ahead if you like, but YMMV. iPad + iPhone 4S + 2degrees 3G data 4tw! These comments are my own and do not represent the opinions of 2degrees.

Im in leamington just over the bridge from the 2degrees cell tower, its been active for a while now, ive been using it on a 2degrees MBB stick and have had no problems, i can even get the signal from the raceway in taylor street. Has a reasonable range, although would like to see another one out towards the high school way to extend the coverage
