Telecom are currently trenching fibre right past our house in Opawa/Woolston in Christchurch.
The local fibre cabinet is going to be 40 metres away (as opposed to the 2-3km distance we have now to the existing exchange).
That makes me think there's potential for a massive broadband speed increase using ADSL-2 when the work is completed at the end of the month.
Has anyone on list had a similar fibre upgrade in their area with the local fibre cabinet close by?
Did it give you a significant increase in broadband speeds over ADSL-2?
Thanks!
