| ajmitch | evening | 07:22 |
|---|---|---|
| kcj | Indeed it is. | 07:35 |
| ojwb | is there a site where I can get an idea of what the adsl speed is likely to be like for a location? | 10:38 |
| Atamira | in nz? | 10:43 |
| ojwb | Atamira: yeah | 10:44 |
| Atamira | i dont know of one that does areas you dont live in | 10:45 |
| Atamira | http://www.nzdsl.co.nz/ | 10:46 |
| ojwb | even just an easy way to find the local exchange would be better than nothing | 10:46 |
| ojwb | yeah, I know I can pretty easily find what speed I currently have | 10:46 |
| Atamira | i have no idea if there is such a site really | 11:10 |
| G | ojwb: for teh morning: http://chorus.co.nz/service-availability-tool will do the Address->Cabinet/Exchange thingy you want | 14:50 |
| G | ojwb: as for distance, 5-6k of cable distance = 2-2.5mbit/s for me | 14:51 |
| chilts | morning | 19:36 |
| ibeardslee | oh yeah morning | 19:36 |
| ibeardslee | 6:36 here | 19:36 |
| chilts | heh, I was just wondering where you were | 19:37 |
| chilts | yeah, guessed it was at LCA | 19:37 |
| ibeardslee | yeap | 19:39 |
| mwhudson | good morning | 19:47 |
| Atamira | morning | 19:50 |
| ajmitch | morning | 19:51 |
| ajmitch | ibeardslee: where are you staying? | 19:51 |
| ibeardslee | student accom BG2-2 | 20:00 |
| * ajmitch is in BG18 | 20:01 | |
| hads | morning | 20:12 |
| * hads is missing out | 20:12 | |
| ibeardslee | we got a freetronics LeoStick in with the conference loot | 20:14 |
| hads | So I hear, that's neat. | 20:15 |
| ibeardslee | I'm going to be on the hunt for people going 'WTF, I don't want this' | 20:15 |
| hads | heh | 20:15 |
| ajmitch | I'm keeping mine :) | 20:22 |
| ojwb | morning | 21:23 |
| ojwb | G: thanks | 21:23 |
| ojwb | G: is there a way to see the actual location of the exchange, rather than just the area it covers | 22:01 |
| ojwb | at least for where we currently live (where I know the exchange's location) it isn't very central in its area | 22:05 |
| G | ojwb: iirc it shows it there | 22:21 |
| G | ojwb: oh it used to | 22:22 |
| G | ojwb: does the exchange support VDSL? | 22:22 |
| ojwb | G: yeah, it does | 22:22 |
| G | if show, turn on the VDSL2 layer for the exchange only, should be the middle-ish of the Green Dot | 22:22 |
| G | s/show/so/ | 22:23 |
| G | the other way, in the out and about sense, is just look where all the Chorus vans seem to be heading ;) | 22:24 |
| ojwb | currently they all seem to be in kelson | 22:24 |
| ojwb | which is getting UFB cabling right now | 22:25 |
| G | oh, lucky them... | 22:25 |
| G | hads: saw your tweet btw, congrats on the addition :) | 22:26 |
| ojwb | once they stop severing water mains and electricity cables, yes | 22:26 |
| G | ojwb: here, the council do that for us :) | 22:27 |
| G | they attacked the underground phone cable to the side of the road, while resealing... which w/ all the rain, seems to have flooded over the 'fix' and is maybe now messing with the cable :( | 22:28 |
| ojwb | oops | 22:29 |
| G | ojwb: but yeah, that Chorus page should give you an idea (wish they'd resize the iframe though) | 22:31 |
| ojwb | yeah, just knowing it has VDSL2 is a good indication I think | 22:37 |
| G | ojwb: the property you are looking at? lucky :) | 22:42 |
