Hyperoptic are awesome. See a problem/opportunity and instead of endless whinging to Ofcom via press releases they just get on and prove that they had the right ideas.

In Singapore I had 1Gbit at home. Now I make due with a meagre 20/2Mbps

Singaporean 1gbit was to Singaporean servers. Not to overseas ones.

I'm on 50mbps for Comcast. I max at around 2.9mbps/sec Steam or otherwise direct downloads. Maybe I'm just old but I still remember modem download speeds, and I can live with what I'm getting pretty happily.

Yeah I was under the impression that NZ had done a fibre rollout the right way, and 'Straya had hosed it up

You're too far away from your local cabinet and your building owners are too cheap or too lazy to have fibre conduit run through the building. (I work for Spark)

Had to fix our own exchange server. The front-end connector broke causing mail to not come in. Once I figured that out and got it fixed I discovered that when one of my coworkers accidentally all the firewall rules and NAT policies he didn't put the LDAPS policies back in. This caused our Roaring Penguin spam filter to stop delivering messages as it was unable to reach our AD server to figure out where to route mail.
