New Zealand Broadband in 2017

A few things to keep an eye out for in 2017 that may have not been around last year.

Although it's not clear if the gigatown/gigacity broadband experiment in Dunedin was a success, gigabyte broadband speeds are now becoming avaialble to households and business across New Zealand, and not just in Dunedin. Ultrafast Fibre is rolling out this option across most cities and towns in the Wiakato, and Chorus is performing a similar roll out across the rest of the country.

Another thing to keep an eye out for when it comes to broadband in NZ is that contract free fibre plans are now growing and will soon become the norm. There is no longer a need to get your self stuck in a 2 year plan that will probably get outpriced within a year in such a competitive market.
