I just switched tonite. I got the email last nite but as my speed had
gone from 32KB to 250KB I decided to leave until tonite. No problems with
logging on to Orcon.

One question. Have you been able to access any form of usage meter. I
suspect that the Telecom one is no longer available and the Orcon one seems
aimed at the old Jetstart system..??
