Shash: Former XNET signing off mate
exportgoldman:Shash: Former XNET signing off mate
I'm still on XNET, and as my speeds posted in my last post tonight, I'm still beating you on speed to Los Angeles. Oh, and I have free data after midnight, hehe. :-)
I'm looking forward to all the things I can do with free data off peak, like streaming backups of my servers offsite.
I think everyones thinking about torrents, but what about the possibilities of megabit national traffic, and what you could do with that!
This is going to make so many more services cost effective now.

You can never have enough Volvos!
Ragnor: In a change of pace from speedtest shots here's some gaming and mtr shots from 10.30pm tonight, trying to enjoy a bit of after work gaming on a wet friday night in Auckland. No dice.
5% packet loss at xnet's handover to us links

I don't think so, it will just shift the "problem" from peak time to after midnight. But at least you will probably not complain, as it will be free data anyway.

cokemaster: When I look at the plan, I wonder, whats stopping people from having the free data and using a lot of data during 'peak times' to.... Because having free offpeak data would make it easier to justify downloading (as you are no longer paying for that data....)
chrisjunkie: I am looking at comming over to xnet from xtra even though there are speed problems. Nothing can be worse than our go large speeds.
Is the internet browseable? I dont really watch youtube video's etc just looking at bebo and trademe really. Mostly have The Edge FM streaming as well...
Should I move or is there another ISP that offers the same type of plans at the same price?
Cheers
Chris

coffeebaron:
It still has some way to go, but I think it the worst has past. For example, YouTube would stream around the 200k mark (peak times), with constant re-buffers. It now streams around 300k. Still someway to go, but on the up. But as I said, NZ based websites & content is fine. Also, off peak is fine too.
