You can get a static IP address at an extra cost of $20 per month. You also need to be on a business plan as opposed to a home plan, you can find out more about the plans on www.woosh.co.nz. The speeds offered are 256k, 350k and 500k plans including a broadband on demand option that allows you you to upgrade your speed online for a temporary period eg 24hours

At the moment roaming is free so you can connect anywhere there is coverage - go to www.woosh.co.nz and enter your address to find out if your areas are in coverage.

Subject: RE: Woosh

Yes, I setup a woosh modem using pppoe on a linux firewall last week, worked
fine. Had to buy the additional rj45 cable from woosh, was around 30$. 256k
is just the Entry level flat rate plan, there are faster plans with caps.

So, is this the right forum for discussing Woosh from a technical point of
view? Can I get the IP on my server like I do with the 3com PPPoE solution?
Can Woosh increase their speeds, or is 256kb/s the top speed of the
technology? If they fold, can I use the modem with anyone else? If I move
house, do I have to pay to "roam" (I ask because during the launch there was
something called free roaming, and I can only assume this means you can move
without it?).
