Nope, that's 4G from our Blenheim born and raised towers. :)

We'll be testing and optimizing over the next few weeks so please forgive any drops that you may see from time to time. When we update our Coverage map that will make it official.

In the meantime, enjoy!

mercutio: now if they can just bump the torbay, auckland 4g switch. was about 2 megabit when the power went out.

Probably less to do with the fact it's a 3G connection and more to do with the fact that everyone on 2Degrees in Torbay was probably hammering their mobile data.

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.
