antoniosk: Will protection from 5G be available?

We don't do 5G, we do 10G.

BOOM! DING DING DING DING DING

Give that person a prize.... great response !

Except they only offer up to 4G right now?.. not 10G...

Pretty sure one smart man at nznog said they will likely only go up to 8G as a service too ;)

If enough of us RSP people show up, maybe we can just storm the place and hijack the tour?

Anything I say is the ramblings of an ill informed, opinionated so-and-so, and not representative of any of my past, present or future employers, and is also probably best disregarded.

How about a swap - you play with the NEAXs and I go to the Fibre Lab?
