[thebacons]

Anyone around the Christies Beach area who can recomend a phone and broadband provider and costs please. Also do you go to the company you are going with to connect the line or through Telstra ?

Thanks, Chris.

Hi
We had a dongle first through Optus and that was terrible and kept dropping out. Could not speak on skype for longer than 5 minutes at a time. Did a lot of asking around etc and couldn't find a package that we wanted that we thought was cheap enough. We ended up with Telstra - had problems getting connected and numerous engineers out and Niki paying numerous visits to them to get things rights. They did put themselves out but only after a good nagging. All good now but sort of have you over a barrel as there are not as many phone providers here as UK.

I've recently changed over to TPG a couple of months ago and they have been good thus far. I live closer to the city though. They do ask what area you live in so they can do a check. I also have a home phone so they were able to check via my phone number whether the coverage was going to be good.

Cheers guys. I currently have access via a dongle and although I can Skype it does drop out and there is a lag. Will get broadband when I can work out who is the cheapest at a reasonable connection rate.

Hi

Just to say, specify exactly what you want it for. We use ours for broadband and the fax line for work, but we do not have a physical phone that we use and use our mobiles, did not have a connection charge as there was a phoneline there although inactive and charge us $78 pcm

Thanks for the tip. We don't really need a phone line either just the connection speed.

Hi chris

At Christies beach you will need to get a phone line if you want Internet as they only do Adsl 1 down your street I'm afraid ( well that what my provider told me anyway) and you can't get VoIP etc yet
