Last month we further enhanced our connectivity and interconnect options for our growing partner base by moving into the new CDC Hyperscale Data Centre and the Vocus Albany Data (both located on NZ’s North Shore).
If you are looking for enhanced SLAs for Australian NBN services, we now have that covered too, allowing you to construct support packages to suit individual client requirements.
What else happened this month? Chorus has a new service called “High Priority Access” – a game changer in the point-to-point fibre space. Plus, you can now offer Wellington clients fibre diversity through our new partnership with Vital.
But wait, there’s more! The annual survey is here. It’s your golden ticket to shape Lightwire’s roadmap. Make sure to complete it so we can better help you help your clients.
And, for those hungry for knowledge, don’t miss out on our latest podcasts, the comprehensive NBN playbook, and tips to customise your illume notifications.
Happy reading, and as always, thanks for your continued support. If you’ve got any questions or issues, please reach out!

Chorus High Priority Access
Have the BS4/HSNS slow speeds and high price points held you back from recommending committed speed services to your clients and adapting a true enterprise internet solution?
Good news, because Chorus has just come out with its “High Priority Access” (HPA in short because the industry just loves acronyms) that offers 100 CIR traffic class and 1Gbps speeds, at great value for money.
