iiChurned to iiNet
30th January, 2007
Life, WTF, WWW,
Yes.. Westnet has finally been given the flick, and I have churned (tho techincally not), to iiNet, to their ADSL2 service.
After spending the last 4-5 days waiting for the service to be provisioned, it has finally went thru, and it is now up and running. Seem to be syncing in at about 6/1, which is giving me a nice download speed of about ~500K/S depending on where the download originates.
Have some new toys to play with, (VOIP, Sipura 3000, and a GigE switch), so lots to do until I go back to uni.
In a side story, after having my ADSL2 set up, i got a scan from a curious IP. 207.46.197.32. According to whois, it is a microsoft IP, and if you try and resolve the ip to a hostname, you come up with a stack of domains microsoft seems to own.

meme,
Well it does seem that I have been tagged, by James in the "5 Things You May Not Know About Me" meme.
While I did contemplate giving the Luis Villa version, I resisted and decided to let you in on 5 things you don't know about me. Well, maybe you do, but YOU don't anyway.
- I love the taste of Kangaroo, cooked on the BBQ in strips, with BBQ sauce, on a breadroll.
- I was once in a choir for many years, and performed many times at Sydney Town Hall and Parramatta Westfields, among other places.
- The music I prefer to listen to comes from the 60's, 70's and 80's, not the 90's or 00's, yet I'm only 20.
- I went to New Zealand in 1998 (or so), to compete in the LAANSW Trans Tasman, in the 100M and Shot Put.
- I once was a Windows advocate.
Now I'm going to tag: Simon Butcher, Michael Kedzierski, Stuart Longland, Jeremy Apthorp and (for someone randomly selected from SLUG, Erik de Castro Lopo.
