Probably something thats been said prior, and maybe even on the xnet website. Cant find any info regarding though..

Local data is free right? "Local traffic is any content that is part of Xnet's local service delivery and includes voice calls, content stored on Akamai caching content, Gameplanet Downloads, Gameplanet Gaming Servers, Recoil Games hosting and more"(XNET Website)

Does this mean if i have two locations, both connected using xnet fusion services, create a vpn between the two and have the data classed as local therefore free?

Cheers

Unfortunately not. I thought of doing the same thing. Free or cheaper national would be the way to go if xnet wanted to be a bit innovative.

I believe the data has to begin/end in Xnet's core, so data sent between two Xnet ADSL connections doesn't count.
