Thanks so much for all the replies.

To answer a few questions, more general, we are not leaving Welli for good but will be hiding up in the mountains for most of the week and be in Welli the rest of the time. We are currently behind a 3g link in Te Horo and that works okish but something with a bit more grunt would be nice longer term.

I'll do some tests tomorrow on 3g reception on the different networks and ask around the neighbourhood what they do but chances are that they have no need for permanent internet as the places are rented out most of the time. If I can drum up a few neighbours it may be possible to get a more decent link in, happy to spend some money on it if it means I can get more than a couple mbit :)

Thanks again
cheers

Hi,

I am currently trying to figure out if I can get anything else than a weak 3G signal in terms of internet just outside of St Arnaud. The address is

62 Alpine Meadows Drive, Saint Arnaud

There is a phone line as well as a few other houses but the Chorus website tells me that they don't have any services there. I tried a few of the bigger providers and many tell me I can have VDSL but either don't come back to me or turn around and say "sorry, mate, can't"

Anyone on the list that knows someone who might get anything faster than a 3G link to that address? Happy to shout beers on top of being a very grateful customer :)

Thanks heaps
cheers
