Sure Signal v2 - $500

 

Item is currently located at our bach, there has been a new cell tower installed recently so the sure signal is no longer required.  Was purchased brand new in 2014, the original PSU failed a couple years ago and was replaced, apart from that there are no issues and the unit works fine

 

Pickup is from Glinks Gully, Northland between 16th and 21st Dec, or we will bring this back to West Auckland with us after the 21st.

Never heard of this place before so I checked Google maps. Apparently the feature attractions there are a public toilet, and a bach.

Yes, wont need to share it any longer - was only sharing it due to being in a cell phone black spot and chorus not being able to supply any additional adsl lines in the area - which left satellite as the only option, I don't know of anyone there using satellite though.  Most are all baches with only a small handful of locals permanently living there.  I had a Ubiquiti AP up on the roof configured as a hotspot and loads of people would use it over the summer, plus I was feeding one of the locals over a 5ghz link because he couldn't get adsl, his copper line was a "pair gain" line apparently from what I heard.

It is a beautiful part of Northland 20 minutes drive from Dargaville

@hsvhel What do you mean? Wi-Fi calling is launching before the Sure Signal cluster is turned off

Apologies, my mistake, I read that incorrectly.

 

Will the Wifi calling change require handset "x" and above?

Wifi calling is fantastic. Good to see that its coming to Voda. 

 

Potentially with the EOL - we might see a dip in Suresignal pricing :)

Just confirming EOL isn't shutting down the service in their eyes, just no longer supported?
