Same here. I have great speed near Foxton......population: very small.

At the moment, I'm in a tiny almost-town called Mindemoya (pop: 800) on
Manitoulin Island in Lake Huron in Canada - the world's largest fresh
water island....and remote as far as most people would be concerned.

DSL is faster here than in NZ.....

Cheaper, too.
