Hello, Does anyone have a public map showing how much of New Zealand has been unbundled, how many Exchanges have been done, and the speeds customers are getting on unbundled exchanges... And I guess, in a given area, what ISP's are there.... After all the 'hype' of a blond CEO of a certain ISP (Any one remember the Bread stunt) about how they are going to provide New Zealanders with quicker faster cheaper Internet, I have seen no evidence of this - the cost has not dropped between an unbundled exchange and a non unbundled exchange. Last I heard in the news, less than a handfull of Auckland suburbs had been done, And I live in one of them which is good, but if I want to move, I would like to move to one that is unbundled still. The News Media has moved on to the next 'buzz word' and I guess that is what some companies were hoping for.. As LLU is now out of the public eye, and almost forgotten about. Just thought I would ask here, as I cant seem to find anything online.
I think there is a lot more unbundling than the "handful" of exchange that you mention. Last I heard about 40 odd exchanges had been unbundled by a large red and large purple ISP. The large red one seems to offer a $10 discount if you connect to one of their exchanges rather than Telecom's - and I think the large purple one is doing similar. That's certainly a reasonable discount and a lot better than the Telecom loyalty discount in Christchurch, Auckland and Wellington that they give to landline customers. I've heard a few other things but unsure how public they are. I believe there is unbundling, or unbundling testing, going on currently in 3 other major NZ cities. Others may want to comment on that.

TelstraClear sells LLU services from 42 exchanges, with another 20 coming up, nationwide: http://www.telstraclear.co.nz/company-info/media-release-template.cfm?newsid... -- Juha Saarinen twitter: juhasaarinen
http://www.broadbandmap.govt.nz/map/ <http://www.broadbandmap.govt.nz/map/>The areas with Wholesale ADSL2 might be a key to the unbundled sites. Not sure if they mention which cabinet/exchange though. Regards Dan On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 10:01 AM, Chris Hodgetts <chris(a)archnetnz.com>wrote:
