Same issue here in Auckland. Intermittent connectivity. TXT and voice all working, only cellular data has intermittent issues. Tried various APNs, but still no go.

I'm also in Taupo and found my data connection was either going slow or not at all. I was unable to login to my bank. Seems to be a little better right this second though.

All comments are my own opinion, and not that of my employer unless explicitly stated.

And now its fine. Although im kinda relieved it was everybody and not just me, in case it was my phone that was the problem.

Seems to be an issue affecting XT, I know of somebody who has a lot of telemetry devices and they're all down.

Should be sorted for the vast majority of customers now. A small minority of customers may still be impacted but a restart of your phone should sort it.

I hear a install of a master filter on the handset will help

Can you confirm please?
