Another odd thing my flatmate noticed: We're on an ihug jetstream starter
account, but a traceroute to any host resolves to an xtra name on the second
jump. I cant login to my machine from here to check, but it looks something
like this:

1. my gateway
2. something.jetstream.xtra.co.nz
3. 192.168.x.y
4. 192.168.x.y
5. something.ihug.net
...

I take it that hop 2 is the one at the other end of the DSLAM. Seems a bit
presumptuous to give it an xtra domain name.
