Bare in mind this is over WiFi, on quite a busy internet connection (there is a reason I have 200/200Mbit!)

 

 

 

speedtest.net gets a better result maybe due to a bigger file downloaded so it is able to ramp up. My router was reporting a peak throughput of 220/218Mbit during this time so really not too bad.

Thanks heaps Renaud!

 

We are pretty stoked to have this up and running, and we've got a couple more on the way soon in Auckland and Dunedin.

Is it ok to give some feedback here? I find the interface horribly busy. Contains lots of useful information (Though it's VERY slow to set up), but I feel like there a more compact and easier way to display the information. Bright Green is not my favourite colour, it's quite jarring. Perhaps some muted colours might help!

I disagree with all of the above - except for the slow loading bit.  smile

 

The look of the interface is all a matter of personal taste.  I like green.  smile 

 

The functionality is excellent.  smile

To me it feels like the site has ad's even when it doesn't.

Hi Guys,

 

Regarding the slow loading, we'll improve that in few days by switching some of JS in our CDN. Unfortunately for you, our servers are located in France with a latency of 300ms to NZ... so we'll try to do the best to serve the static content trough our CDN but webservices will stay slow. We hope one day, we'll get enough users to add local webservices servers at different locations.

 

Regarding the UI & colors, it cannot please everyone :)

 

FYI, we have just added 2 more servers :

 

Thanks to 2degrees again :)

Perhaps you could offer a second darker theme? I imagine it's not huge work?
