You wont be able to access the Telecom usage meter, now that you are with
Orcon.
The Orcon meters, still reports data usage, from the time last time you have
disconnected.

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..??
