Just moved over to the vodafone uncapped plan and found out how average the speeds are vs the old capped plan.
I'm on ADSL2 on the north shore in auckland syncing at around 15mbit so i would expect "ok" speeds.

Anyway i can live with an average internet connection as you kind of get what you pay for at the end of the day..

The thing i find REALLY amusing is the route im taking on their network..

Take a look at this ( remembering im in Auckland )

Wow

Thats right people we are sending all traffic from auckland to christchurch first!! adding around 30 - 40 ms in latency ( almost as bad as sending the frame to australia and back... )

and yes the return path is also coming in via christchurch too

Just wondering if any one else in auckland on their 118.92.0.0/16 range has noticed this too?

There is no difference in routing between capped and uncapped plans

HI John,

I have done this now..

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.

Nice one,

So is it normal to route all traffic originating from Auckland via Christchurch?

I have not confirmed anything has changed so yes it will be the same, Issue seems to be with your connection and that is why I emailed you asking for a trace route to the host
