I think we should be grateful to the Rugby World Cup for the capacity upgrades

[snip] 1. Upstream queuing/shaping to get onto the PON segment is actually useful, as the 500mbps policer on the other side (required for us to mean SLAs) is not TCP friendly, if CPEs aren’t shaping to the actual plan rate What an interesting comment! I wonder if this would have any real world impact on upstream performance on FibreMAX plans - or if one might observe difference performance between Chorus and other LFCs? And the fact that only a tiny minority of Residential CPE actually support upstream shapers with the capability to shape 500Mbit and of that tiny proportion an even smaller number would have it switched on and configured correctly and are not having an impact on throughput due to most CPE not having enough cycles to shape and NAT and depending on RSP PPPoE encapsulate traffic at 1GB. The only other area of concern in my view would be supply chain for physical equipment going forward. There are many areas are impacted so I can't see why core infrastructure equipment or CPE would be any different. But the fact that the NZ Internet has been such a non event after various media pundits have said "NZ is running out of internet" speaks volumes about all the effort everyone has made. Hats off to you all.
