Thanks @3l3m3nt! 🧡

Nice and fast hehe, to achieve the speed in my signature I had to disconnect everything except my PC. The VMs passively use up to 20Mb/s most of the time.

That seems to even exceed Quic's own expectations.  They are advertising their "Sprinter" plan, which I assume this is, at 900 down and 400 up.  (Half way down the Quic homepage.

It would depend on the distance to that Christchurch server.

OP is in Dunedin, so latency from there is expected to be higher. Check my signature for ping tests.

First hop is 10.9ms minimum, i think that might be their Christchurch BNG? Not sure what to expect with RTT from Dunedin to Christchurch, others here might know more...

I've just had my Quic fibre turned up. It was a somewhat difficult birth due to TFF breaking the fibre that fed the hyperfibre splitter and then generally messing around. Thoughout this, Quic were amazing. Kept me informed, very responsive, kept TFF on their toes to the point that the hyperfibre came up 2 minutes before the tech arrived to downgrade the ONT to give me some sort of service.

 

The rental we were in before our new place was on Spark fibre and the F1TV always dropped back to the lower quality streams. Never had that problem with Quic, and seeing 1.9Gb/s to the desktop. Very happy bunny.

 

I spent over a decade writing BGP (and other protocol code) for Cisco and others. Loving the Quic service and I'm very keen to beta test IPoE  :)

Yeah they seem switched on and definitely targeted to us geeks with a bit more technical nouse.

Thanks for making BGP awesome! :)

Says Fibre is not available at my Auckland address.

 

Currently using Spark fibre. What is that all about?

Hey @Shindig - automation can be a blessing and a curse sometimes!

 

Fire me a PM with what plan you'd like to signup to and I can fire back a link to bypass the checker. 😎

 

(side note: devs are working on a "skip" functionality in the checker for scenarios like this)

Ok, you got me! Signed up as well. Shifted from Spark.

 

Cheers for the code for free setup
