Received a call from Downers, I thought the install would be Wednesday however its been booked for Monday afternoon.

Here is a crazy notion, lets give peace a chance.

I am in Maupuia in Wellington and the retention team tells me that fibreX is not available in my area... but the upgrade was done over a month ago.... what gives!?

Presumably they have yet to fully deploy and test DOCSIS 3.1 in your area following the distributed CMTS upgrade.

And the results...

Nice

Are you connecting to your own kit or is there an HG659 in the mix?

I'm using their supplied router at this stage.

signed up for gigabit, this is my result

I get numbers like this with my MacBook Pro. My Windows machine gives me the much higher numbers I posted earlier. I'm not sure why I'm getting poor numbers with my MacBook Pro with ethernet adapter.

I also get numbers like that on Wifi (802.11ac), which was to be expected.

So much INFO online and on the VodafoneNZ site about the HG659

Also INFO on back of HG659 showing URL to get to the user interface to manage things like WiFi PW

There are 2 default user profiles the best one to manage the HG659 is ' Admin ' capital A

Enter the username Admin and the password "@"and the last eight digits of your modem serial number. E.g. if your modem serial number is ABC0987654321 your password will be @87654321

Very happy with my upgrade - thanks Vodafone and Downer!

Speedtest over WiFi:

-> TC4400 modem -> Netgear R7000 router -> ASUS PCE-AC68 on 5GHz

Speedtest FibreX Max (via 5G WiFi)

Any real world downloads? Steam? A linux torrent?

Any tips on using your own router? I have tried but mine is not being issued an IP address

Have you set WAN as DHCP over tagged UNI (same as fibre optic UFB).

The router I am using TP Link Archer c2 does not have that option, its simply listed as DHCP

Then you are out of luck or will have to get another router that is capable of vlan tagging on the wan interface.
