I heard that TCNZ have changed the details of the UBS service and that now it will be a capped 10gb service. Anyone else know anything about this. Regards Steven Schmidt.

Although the 'new' UBS DSL deal is not as good as the original deal, nor as flexible, I should point out that the traffic limit of 10GB that Telecom has imposed is an AGGREGATE traffic limit across all the users, not a 10GB limit PER user. Currently our JetStream Starter customer base does not use anywhere near 10GB of traffic on average, so hopefully this isn't something that we'll have to worry about. (crosses my fingers that we don't ever go over our limit, and that the overage fees don't get set at 20c/meg) Cheers Seeby -----Original Message----- From: Keith Davidson [mailto:keith(a)wise.net.nz] Sent: Thursday, August 12, 2004 2:32 PM To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: Re: [nznog] Unbudled Bitstream Certainly appears to be the case. See www.orcon.co.nz/company/press/54318/ text follows below. Keith Davidson ________________ "11th August 2004 - New Bitstream plans to remain unchanged On the 27th of July 2004, Orcon released a new, truly affordable 256k Flat rate residential broadband service for $49.95/mth based on the released 'Bitstream' wholesale DSL specification from Telecom. Two week's after Orcon's product release, Telecom have decided to change the specification by imposing a 10GB average traffic limit per user, and an agreement not to promote static IP addresses with the service. Orcon will honor the initial plans offered to customers at our cost, despite the changes that have been made. Orcon is currently the second largest provider of JetStream DSL in NZ, and was the first company to negotiate a Wholesale Services Agreement (WSA) with Telecom for a broad range of services. Orcon has been eagerly awaiting the wholesale DSL portion of the WSA to be finalised, as we believe that we can offer the consumer significantly better deals than are currently available. The moment Telecom told us of their planned Wholesale DSL (UBS) product in early July, we created pricing plans for our own DSL product (based on the Wholesale DSL components we would purchase from Telecom) and set about launching an advertising campaign based on these initial figures - taking a bet that Telecom's final wholesale pricing to us would either be the same or better than the initial figures. The supposed 'final' UBS specification was released by Telecom on 26th July, and as we had guessed, was slightly better than their initial proposal. Our ads for flat rate 256k DSL with a static IP address at the all-inclusive price of $49.95 started to come out a day later. As far as we were concerned, Telecom had finalised the wholesale deal for DSL that they would offer to us, and we had successfully launched our product. After a couple of weeks, with many thousands of advertising dollars already spent, and several hundred new DSL customer signed up, Telecom told us that the UBS specification they had come up with was going to be changed. Specifically, the 'flat-rate' nature of the product and the ability to advertise static IP addresses. We don't know whether the fact that Orcon came out with our flat-rate and static IP address product had anything to do with Telecom changing the specification to withdraw these capabilities, however no other ISPs had come out with any other offering, and therefore our product was seen as a 'reference' product in the market. However - As a champion for affordable broadband, Orcon has decided to wear the 10GB excess traffic charges at our cost so that we can continue to offer a flat rate product, and we will also honor the static IP address for users who have already signed up from an existing promotion wherever possible. We believe that it should the ISPs choice whether to offer Static IP addresses or provide a truly flat-rate service.

6509 Chassis
by J S Russell 09 Aug '04

09 Aug '04

Does anyone on this list have access to a bare Cisco 6509 chassis (preferably also with at least one 240V PSU module installed if possible, but it's not necessary) which they'd be willing to part with in exchange for some combination of dollars and/or a populated Cisco 5513 chassis (Sup2, three 24x10/100 planes, spare Sup1) and/or a lot of beer? If you have one, or could help me at all, please do let me know. JSR -- John S Russell | Big Geek | Doing geek stuff.
