PhantomNVD: And didn't you just say you had 1-10GB lines out... What happened to the rest if that bandwidth :D

Chorus network to Vodafone network hand over points... There are many of them.

PhantomNVD: So only telecom has the data capacity to support this?
Damn, and my suresignal only works with VF :(

Who says that Telecom actually have capacity for this? I'll believe it won't have an affect on other customers once its been running for a while...

Unlimited plans are now live.
From what I ascertain, the 500GB plans are now "Unlimited".

Just to get the answer out there as I'm sure it will be asked, no unlimited for cable users?

Quic Broadband

Move to New Zealand's best fibre broadband service (affiliate link). Free setup code: R587125ERQ6VE. Note that to use Quic Broadband you must be comfortable with configuring your own router.

Hold on, this new unlimited Vodafone plan, is this NEW or it has been there for sometime?

edit: I see that this is a new plan

TimA: Yes, please marketing take the hint and copy it. Please i want my QOS to go down hill. I want slower off shore speeds. I want higher pings, I want further degraded traffic. (I doubt the VF network would be brought to its knees but i have seen other providers exercise that ability.)
Some may object to such but i would rather quality over quantity.

So are we going to see QOS down hill, slower off shore speeds, higher pings and degraded traffic?

This is normal already even before unlimited ;)

I would assume that we have the sufficient network behind the move. We wouldn't want to be half deep in it an encounter problems. Earlier post i mentioned our hand over points are not near 100% at max and when we did VDSL most points got a 10gig upgrade.
