Thanks to all those who did the little audio codec test earlier. Feedback so far is about what I expected, but other opinions are appreciated especially from folks using modems in rural places. I had to simulate that using a GPRS card. As a little thank you http://www.r2.co.nz/20040719/ Please note I put approximate costs for traffic alongside each link - you *have* been warned. rich

Hi there, I'm testing some audio codecs for suitability in places with very slow links - such as pacific Island, Asia and Rural NZ. Unfortunately I only have high speed net access and get a distorted result. If you have a little time I'd appreciate you listening to the clips and letting me know what you thought of the quality and how MP3 and windows media compare at low speeds (7, 8 or 16 kHz sampling). Would you listen to this sort of programme content ? (ie is it good enough that you would listen). The samples have some voice programmes and some music. I appologise for the taste in music - it was at hand. The test page is at http://www.r2.co.nz/20040812/ Thanks - Rich

Telecom UBS "not the service recommended by the Commission"
by Juha Saarinen 13 Aug '04

13 Aug '04

No, not unlimited beer service, but the wholesale DSL thing. In case you've missed it, have a read of these two: http://computerworld.co.nz/news.nsf/UNID/16FA6ACE360C15CACC256EEF003360DD http://www.nzherald.co.nz/storydisplay.cfm?storyID=3584222 I received a media release late yesterday as well, which isn't up on the ComCom Web site yet. Here's a snippet from it: 'Current UBS not the service recommended by the Commission The Commerce Commission is advising businesses that the Unbundled Bitstream Service (UBS) currently being offered commercially by Telecom New Zealand differs significantly from the regulated bitstream service, recommended by the Commission in its unbundling report to the Minister of Communications, and due to come into force shortly. The Commission has become aware that the service being currently offered by Telecom has more limited characteristics than the bitstream service recommended by the Commission. "I would be concerned if telecommunications industry participants signed up to the current Telecom commercial offer under the impression that it was a proxy for the regulated service." said Telecommunications Commissioner Douglas Webb. ' The Commission's bitstream service isn't modelled on the Jetsurf 1GB plan or any Telecom retail plan. Looking at the service description, the commission requires a max upstream of 128Kbit/s and must "have an average of not less than 256Kbit/s" for the downstream, with a throughput rate for end users that mustn't be less than 32Kbit/s. -- Juha

Well, see now, my home machines actually tend to keep doing things via the internet, even when I'm not physically sitting in front of them and looking at stuff in a browser. In fact, I (and most of the people reading this list) tend to be use _less_ traffic at home than "power users" - because all our personal high-bandwidth p2p apps and audio/video streams and suchlike live on servers which tend to be connected to ISP core networks, or live in ISP co-location space. 12K/sec is "fine"? Great! I think I'd like to listen to Twisted Radio's high-quality web stream, and also .... oh, wait, I was going to talk about some other common internet stuff there, but I've pretty much already used up most of 12K/sec. Well, perhaps I'll turn all that stuff off, plunk myself down on the couch, fire up the xbox and pull up one of r2's high-quality video streams to watch on ... oh, no, I guess I sure as hell won't be doing that. And neither will anyone else at 256Kbits/sec, flat rate or not-flat rate. Because 256Kbits/sec is obscenely slow. A key point here is not to think about what most people currently do with their internet connection, it's to think about what they _could_ be doing if they had _real_ broadband. The lost opportunities from this lack of connectivity is the thing that people ought to really be mad about. A 256Kbits/sec bit rate, of which you will be allowed to sustain a fraction thereof, on a service which can do _8Mbits/sec_ is frankly, a load of ass. There are test residential FTTP installations in prodution elsewhere_right now_. True optical to the home - not science fiction, if you live in the right place you can just Go Buy One. I can see that from Telecom if it gets here - 10GBits/sec to the home, and you get a full 10Gbits/sec if you connect to Telecoms content server domains or gaming realms, and if you go anywhere else ... well, as you've pointed out, 12K/sec is "fine" isn't it? Speaking of which, I must point out yet again, The Telecom ADSL product somehow can do a full 8Mbits/sec speed flat-rate _FREE_ connection to one national platform (Jetstreamgames) yet somehow is "not provisioned" to do more than 10GB/month to another national platform (Any Non-Telecom ISP). Hell, TCNZ, I'll just run some optical cable over to wherever your JSG servers are, and .. oh, no, can't do that either. Why? "Policy", last time I asked. As I said in an earlier post to NZNOG, it's just Business As Usual. And you can't blame Telecom for it, they're just trying to protect their stock price and dividend, it's what they're legally obliged to do! It is, however, the job of the government to point at corporate interests and say "Oi! You're in a monopolistic position with regards to this resource, and we're _ordering_ you to do something that you naturally wouldn't do and open it up to others!" That didn't happen, though, did it? I am beginning to agree with other users on this thread. Let's put some alternate infrastructre in place and get some competition going. Woosh wireless manage to offer a flat-rate 256Kbits/sec connection over _cellular_ equipment for chrissakes! No cables AND it's portable! ICONZ Wireless on Waiheke offers 2Mbits/sec symmetical wireless connections, the largest of which offer 10GB of _international_ access for less than $99/month and throws in free totally unmetered line-speed flat-rate domestic access and that's _RETAIL_, not a pretend wholesale product. Sod this ADSL thing - it's damage - route around it. JSR -- John S Russell | Big Geek | Doing geek stuff.

Telecom a Joke
by Terence 12 Aug '04

12 Aug '04

Three weeks ago I put an order in for Jetstream, for our Richmond Office. Just thought I would call to find out what was happening with the connection. Xtra said that they have run out of ports at the exchange and that I am in a waiting queue for one to come available. They will give no time or date, or if they are going to upgrade the exchange. How much profit did they make last year ?. What about some re investment. Disclaimer : These figures could be wrong 795 mil profit 4 mil people.

Hurrah JSR! > A key point here is not to think about what most people currently do > with their internet connection, it's to think about what they _could_ > be doing if they had _real_ broadband. The lost opportunities from > this lack of connectivity is the thing that people ought to really be > mad about. Exactly. I've met a number of people who deny they have even a Claytons broadband connection in ADSL, since they are unable to use it for fear of exceeding their capacity to enrich Telecom. The 10GB cap on the leisurely 256K we are to be doled out amounts to about a 14% duty-cycle. And I'm bemused as to the location of the "unbundling" in UBS? It looks more and more like it it well and truly bundled to avoid the inconvenience of competition for Telecom. > I am beginning to agree with other users on this thread. Let's put some > alternate infrastructre in place and get some competition going. You ever disagreed with that? Hope truly springs eternal... > Sod this ADSL thing - it's damage - route around it. <grin>, a line from a Digital Strategy response I'm working on: "The Internet was designed for resilience and its ability to route around damage is legend. This ability has often been interpreted to indicate that whatever the Internet routes around is damage, as in the classic, "The Internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it." The Internet may provide a way to route around the legacy "Last mile," and the closed proprietary Central Office." > JSR Hamish. -- The world isn't worse. It's just that the news coverage is so much better.

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.

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.

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.

NTP weirdness
by Glen Eustace 02 Aug '04

02 Aug '04

Hi all, I am need of some help with our public ntp setup. We upgraded our servers from RH7.3 ->FC1 (ntp4.1.1->4.1.2) last week and I have now had several reports of people who are seeing our servers apparently port scanning them :-( I didn't change the config for ntp but can confirm that after their server first asks for the time, we start sending them packets on high UDP ports. The complaints that I have been investigating are Windows servers but that may be a red-herring. I have previously treated ntp as a black-box but am obviously going to have to understand things better. Any help would be appreciated.

[nzlug] Problems connecting to Telstra Broadband service in Wellington via a DSE XH1151 Broadband Router? (fwd)

This is fairly OT, but I figure that the likelihood of someone on here being able to help him is higher than the other lists he posted to. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2004 17:13:00 +1200 From: Chris Day <chris.day(a)dse.co.nz> Reply-To: nzlug(a)linux.net.nz To: adsl(a)lists.unixathome.org, broadband(a)lists.unixathome.org, nzlug(a)linux.net.nz Subject: [nzlug] Problems connecting to Telstra Broadband service in Wellington via a DSE XH1151 Broadband Router? Over the last couple of weeks we have seen an increase in customer calls regarding the use of the DSE XH1151 Broadband Router with the Telstra Wellington Broadband service. For some unknown reason some routers are suddenly dropping the connection. In almost all cases the customer indicates the router has been working fine. It seems to us the properties of the service has somehow changed and we are trying to contact Telstra to resolve the issue but have been unsuccessful in making any meaningful contact. If you work for Telstra or know of anyone in a position of authority that can help us, it would be most appreciated if you could contact ross.hamblin(a)dse.co.nz We are eager to work with Telstra and our manufacturers to resolve this issue.

RE: [nznog] Jetstreamgames Realm Ips?
by NZNOG＠neilnz.com 21 Jul '04

21 Jul '04

Thanks for the prompt replies guys... To summarise: - Yes, there is more than one IP and I now have them so my original idea should work. - I could use DNAT on one or both routers to fix it all at my end. - I wasn't wanting to do transfers between the 2 routers, only between each router and the JSG realm. - I was planning a multithread (2-3 threads per router) FTP DL of a large file, simultaneously from both routers, while measuring speed, error rates, retrains etc from both, then switching ADSL lines and repeating to see if one line is better than the other. A couple of iterations should allow me to factor out line differences. Thanks to all respondents for ideas. Cheers - Neil G

Jetstreamgames Realm Ips?
by NZNOG＠neilnz.com 21 Jul '04

21 Jul '04

Hi guys - I think this is appropriate here... I have been asked to arrange a head to head speed test for a new product with an existing competitor product (ADSL routers) and I'd like to use the JSG realm for this... However, I'd like to use one PC for side by side testing and graphing (Yes, we have marketing people that want to see this, and to show it off to visitors). This would be easy with Jetstream but our test accounts are only tiny traffic ones, so the obvious choice is JSG. Now, I can only find one IP address for this, and was hoping someone might be able to tell me if it's available over 2 different Ips so I can use a host based static route to get one file through one NIC (and ADSL router #1) and another file through the other NIC (and ADSL router #2) If we can't do this then we need to do a Router A THEN Router B and the marketing people just aren't excited about that. (Also, using one machine at the same time elimiates PC differences) (Yes, I know there are other issues, NIC cards, ADSL line differences etc - Marketing doesn't care) Cheers - Neil G

Well, looks like that router isn't managed from here... Good news is that the MCI rep here is passing all this on to their Ops Manager in Sydney. He'll also let them know that the domain info is no longer valid, and to update their contact info :-) I had hoped that they'd have someone on this list.......

Voyager national routing
by Gordon Smith 19 Jul '04

19 Jul '04

Does anyone have any contact info for whoever has taken over the management of the Voyager peering router on APE? Failing that, is it still carrying any legitimate traffic? It's leaking international traffic, which makes it a bit too convenient for handing off DoS attacks - national peering links being larger than intl.... Anything from that router has an international return path. Anyone seeing any route advertisements from there? BTW, all the domain contact info for them is invalid - the phone number listed in the Domainz record is for a sheetmetal shop on the Nth Shore!! Cheers, Gordon

Had a "DOMAIN NAME EXPIRATION NOTICE" in the PO box today, and I suspect many others in NZ will receive similar letters as well, from the infamous domain name registration slammers. Those of you providing registration services may want to warn your customers about this -- again.

WorldxChange Peering
by Gordon Smith 15 Jul '04

15 Jul '04

Hi all, WorldxChange is now peering at APE. Would anyone wishing to peer with us directly please email peering(a)wxnz.net, and include AS number, prefix list, and router IP. Our details are: AS 17435 Prefix list: ip prefix-list wxnz-networks permit 202.182.192.0/19 le 20 Router IP: 192.203.154.108 If you're already peered with the APE route-servers, you should be seeing our route advertisements. BTW, we're seeing quite a bit of garbage originating nationally, which we're dropping. Seems to be a mixture of worms and exploits. The 2 main sources are Woosh and Voyager. Woosh - looks to be virus traffic; not a big deal, but it did show that the range 202.74.192.0 - 202.74.223.255 is missing reverse DNS Voyager - Really weird stuff. You guys need to add outbound filters. I'm seeing traffic from you claiming to be from Latin America and Level3 Networks. If you want a copy of logs, etc. give me a shout Cheers, Gordon Smith CCNA IP Services Manager WorldxChange Communications Ltd.
