I'm looking at getting an orcon VDSL connection when we move to a new address with no fibre until 2020.  At least the exchange is literally over the road, so hopefully that means a short copper run.

 

I know from previous experience that getting support out of Orcon when not using their router is tricky, and we'd want their phone service anyway.

 

What router does Orcon give out these days?  Is it any good?  Can it do 5GHz?  11ac?

Hi there,

 

We supply the same modem for all of our plans except our Gigantic (gigabit) service - which is the Netcomm NF4V.

 

For our Gigantic plan, we supply the FRITZ!Box 7490.

 

All modems are provided on a free rental basis - so it won't cost anything other than postage and packaging, but we require it back if you were to leave.

 

Hope this helps!

 

Cheers,

 

Cam
