All their reasonably priced plans are actually hosted in the US or Canada.
The per GB charge within NZ is around $NZ20 per GB.....
1 MBPS (Business Grade bandwidth) = NZ$3200/mth
1 MBPS (Carrier Grade) = NZ$9000/mth
These are pretty much the asking rates of ISP's - There are deals to be done but it's still going to cost you lots a dollars.
(You need the more expensive option to host servers)
It aint too cheap lol

Internet in Australia is
This is a real pain. I've been looking at getting a dedicated server (I'm currently at ez-web-hosting). US-based servers are cheap, but ping times are terrible, simply because of the distance. Australian servers give good ping, but are horribly expensive: bandwidth in Australia costs 10 to 100 times as much as it does in the US. Even though we now have the Southern Cross Cable, which gives us a huge pipe to the rest of the world, bandwidth is still horrbily expensive. For example, if I go over the 2.5GB cap on my ADSL, I pay A$149 (about US$80) per GB. And that's cheap - Telstra charge twice that! (My provider does give me "unlimited" off-peak downloads, which is why I chose them. Unfortunately, "unlimited" means 10GB.)
If anyone can provide cheap bandwidth in Australia, they'll find themselves with more customers than they know what to do with. Not holding my breath though.Last edited by PixyMisa; 07-26-2002 at 05:00 AM.

Don't like companies that make me hunt down their pricing. It's rarely worth the time.
By the way, I'd kill (or at least inflict minor injuries) to get bandwidth at NZ$20/GB here in Oz. Telstra must die!Last edited by PixyMisa; 07-26-2002 at 05:01 AM.

No big deal but it can be handy if you are able access your machine just down the road instead of trying to contact someone in the US in the early hours

I couldn't get to Cogent's NZ site at all. So I dropped in on their US site. 100Mbit for $1000 per month. Now I'm upset.
