coffeebaron: Matamata (Waikato) Vodafone - alas I could not get a 3G signal, so it's GPRS; but apparently there is a new site on its way as noted by johnr @ http://forum.vodafone.co.nz/topic/3346-3g-extend-and-k3565-z/ So there will be a re-test to come. New Matamata Centeral 3G 900mhz site was integrated today not live to customers yet. John I fix fax machines!! http://forum.vodafone.co.nz

cyril7: Hi, Can confirm that this property is/was connected to TCL's HFC network, there is a TCL demarc on the right side of the building with an underground leadin to overhead network. It seems that both the HFC cable and phone pair are connected to both the line tap and multipair, so probably currently in service. Cyril Thanks very much Cyril, most appreciated - be interested to hear what TCL come up with, given the...

Hi, most of wellington has now been cabinetised, which in laymens terms means you should be able to get good ADSL2+ broadband in most area which will give you speeds between 10-20Mb/s although most should see 15+Mb/s. If your Dlink has been giving you good speeds on ADSL2+ in Aus then it should work as well here, although depending on what firmware it has will determine a lot, its a pretty old hat modem by todays standards, but if it was on a...

sbiddle - the point is I travel a lot - I don't want a number that will work all over NZ - but one that will work all over the world - Skype seems the best option from comments from people who travel a lot - what's the advantage of having a NZ voip line?

A NZ VoIP number will work anywhere in the world just like your Skypein number. Unlike that however it can be ported to any provider whereas Skype numbers are unable to be ported and being SIP based gives you a much greater selection of hardware and software that you can use.

Cyril - Thanks I'll try that isolation test this weekend. I'll search the forums to find how to get hold of the DSL stats page from my modem - its either the ADSL settings sheet telecom sent with the modem or maybe I access the modem directly via a IP address like my storage router- I'll have to look for those.

TelstraClear speeds are either 4Mbps on the low end plans, 10 on the midrange and 25 on the top. I'm not sure where you saw the 2Mbps listed - this is however the upstream sopeed on all plans. If you do go with TCL however it is a cable solution so your ADSL modem will be of no use, you just need a basic router without the ADSL modem. Biddle Corp is powered by...

I would also be interested in dropouts. Since it is mobile broadband if you can drive (or for me take bus to work) from a to b and if your data drops. If I was made of money and didn't mind burning prepaid mobile data I would be happy to do this in Wellington also. Plus I would test with a telecom CDMA (old network) and for good measure test 2degrees as well.

Why do you suspect overheating, is the casing getting really hot? I mean it could be anything manufacturing defect, firmware bug etc.

Just checked my modem its a DLink DSL-302G ...with ADSL written on the side! Do I need a ADSL 2+ modem after all? To the best of my knowledge the DSL-302G is only ADSL and does not support ADSL/2+. So to answer your question, you would need an ADSL/2+ modem to achieve higher speeds (subject of course to your connection etc) www.kiwioffice.co.nz ...
