Public internet access is available from a growing number of sources
throughout New Zealand, particularly around the main centres.  Access for
university staff and students (sometimes only post-grads) is usually
available.  For more detailed information, read Simon Lyall's monthly faq
on the subject;
newsgroups: (news.answers, nz.net.announce, nz.general, s.c.n-z)

archive-name:  internet-access/new-zealand

and also;

although:
 ftp://ftp.dosli.govt.nz/pub/lists/
is slightly better and has a few other FAQs.
