I have no problem with my existing speed at the moment, just with the Exhorbadant price and rediculous Data Cap forced on us but Telco's who want to squeeze every last $ out of our ever decreasing disposable income.
Unlimited broadband, such as they have in America, at a reasonable price, that's what we need in this country. My internet & Phone bill without toll calles is almost $150 a month, the same service in America would be $52 a month. End Telecoms Monopoly of Wholesale broadband, and let free enterprise take the reins, so we have real competition in NZ.
