I don't know what they mean by overloaded but it's possible they mean it's at capacity and there are no more Dslam ports available. If this does happen, no one on the Mt Eden exchange will be able to get ADSL unless someone disconnects. It happens in other countries especially when there is high demand. But I don't not how efficient Telecom is at preventing this and acting quickly when it happens.
