Aww yeh bo.. I got da dizzl in da hood au

I'm in Manurewa and I got that message when I had DSL installed in June.
I'm on the 269 exchange (not that it matters, they're both in the building
that houses Books 'n More on Gt Sth Road, Southmall) and I also got the "But
further investigation is required" message.

Installation went without a hitch and I've got pretty good speed to the
exchange (7616 up, 768 down). For the first week that I had DSL I had a
@#*$&@#* Nokia Ni200 and even that had pretty similar results on this line.

FYI I'm about 1-1.5km from the exchange (which does help in my favour a bit)
due West on Weymouth Rd.

So, like, what did the telecom tech do? Run away with his tail between his
legs?

Steve
