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