According to Telecom's website, I can get VDSL at my address.

My current BB supplier, Vodafone, can apparently only offer ADSL at the same address.

Is that normal? I imagine the same wiring is being used by both companies.

pretty sure i read somewhere, that if cable is available, vodafone wont do VDSL.

your speedtest indicates your in Wellington, so plausible.. have you tried actually calling vodafone and asking their billing team?

otherwise, TimA loves to be pestered with lookup questions (although i hear he may be away over the next few days.)
