Last night, I was scrolling my Facebook newsfeed and saw a number of posts from friends sharing the Anti 5G protest and images from it. Lets just say, given the population of New Zealand this was a downright flop but I wanted to test people to see what they actually know about 5G. That, in […]
Note: I don’t think this works anymore. Mileage may vary. Well – as you likely know last.fm doesn’t allow a username change (like – it isn’t 2018 and all) so my terrible username of choice back when I was 16 (computermann24 if you must ask) was still stuck with me. I did however want my […]
A question that comes up quite often is “what is the best ISP?” – what people fail to ask is what they’re looking for in an ISP? This normally contributes of 5 things: Speed: What is the best service I can get? Reliability: Not to be confused with internal wiring issues (more on that later).Connectivity: […]
As you may know the Surface Pro 3 + Surface Pro 4 / Surface Book WiFi is terrible. This is caused by a combination of a poor choice in WiFi chipset (a Marvell AVASTAR Wireless-AC Chipset – basically an all in one package with WiFi, Bluetooth and NFC) with driver issues. It is somewhat fixable […]

First of all. If you’re new to this thread of Dell and their horrendous customer service, and repair failures then read Part 1 here. Jump to partial resolution (22/02/2016) I am continuing the topic here only since this may get long if Dell goes back on their word of a replacement following future problems with […]
I’ve been waiting for this moment for around 3 months – had a total of 16 bookings of different dates with promises to get UFB but in the end my ISP (2degrees) got a little sick of me waiting so they ensured I got an install at a date that worked for me. At first […]
Jump to update (15/01/2015) Jump to update (16/01/2015) I’m going to put it out there – I don’t normally write about companies on this level, I try to resolve issues in a civil manner however this has now been going on for far too long and feel the need to share it. Some companies simply […]
