I'm on Telecom VDSL and I used to get rock solid, consistent, download speeds of 29mbs but I see it has now dropped down to 25mbs.  I'm still perfectly happy with the service - pings are the same and excellent, uploads speeds have remained the same (9.5) and I have a great internet experience but I'm just curious:  what would cause download speeds to drop after months of being at the same speed?  Could it be case of more people joining VDSL in my street? 


I live in Porirua.  Am one street away from UFB which is coming to my street shortly (can't wait, so excited, as in its the last thing I think about before going to sleep) and will get it just as soon as it does.  OMG those new Chorus wholesale plans have just come in at the right time.
