Slingshot JetBuster allows customers to experience web browsing speeds up to 256k and download speeds up to 128k, with no monthly limits or hidden costs.

Slingshot JetBuster combines Telecom’s JetStream Starter (ADSL) and Slingshot Xcelerator* to enhance the Internet experience and lower the cost of high speed Internet for everyone. With no download limits, customers will have the peace of mind knowing there will be no surprise bills.

* Slingshot Xcelerator uses Slipstream technology to compress and optimises Web content when it leaves our servers. For more information, click here.

It’s fast.
It’s a high speed connection that lets you web browse at speeds up to 256k, and download at speeds up to 128k – a NZ first!



So is it 256k or 128k? thats just confusing!

It also says at the bottem of the page it will throttle you at the busy times (if you are using p2p etc..)
