A recent response to me by Orcon Support desk indicates they are no longer supplying internet unless you sign on for phone services as well.

"Thank you for you reply.

We have recently changed our plans and we no longer offer the Broadband only option and this is the reason why you have not been able to choose this option."

Seems a little retrograde to me

At a different price than I pay now, so not exactly the same product. Also your still dealing with the issue of being on a network connection that is probably QOS to voice traffic priority.
Also how come support desk dont point this out instead of say the product is no longer available.
