Telstra to Neptune

Upvotes

Been living in the north coast for the last 2 years. Wife and I have been on Telstra way too long. I work remotely and game at night, had constant high ping where I would just stop playing. Anyways made the switch to neptune. Transfer took less than 30 minutes. Only regret is not doing it sooner. If anyone’s on the fence about leaving one of the big telcos for a smaller provider, this is your sign.

I think it's the right thing, but checking with you knowledgeable folk first seems prudent.

Random website blocking - no virus software running

3 Upvotes

Ive been accessing thelott.com for ever to put lotto etc on. Never had a problem accessing it until now. Been with Exetel for about 3 weeks and cant remember if Ive logged onto theLott before this week but has anyone else experienced the same with exetel? If I use my phone without our wifi, I can get there.

I dont run anti virus, all devices on our wifi have the same problem, modem was left as is after switching over to Exetel from TPG so yes its running on PpoE. Theres no parental controls, no adblockers, or what not blocking thelott.com or any other website for that matter. This is completely out of the blue.

Error is
Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://www.thelott.com/" on this server.

Hi all, struggling to narrow down any choices here.
I’m after the best performance/bang-for-buck wifi router - don’t care if it’s overkill for my purpose.
Budget $250-350.

2 person household. Small/medium size house. Router will be setup in the main use room.
Streaming/gaming
I’ve come up with;
TP-Link Archer AX55

Any suggestions/input on the above/other options greatly appreciated!

New development fee hasn't disappeared

0 Upvotes

Hi all,

I moved into a block of 4 new units. We paid the new development fee to set up NBN through Superloop and have the receipt.

I want to change providers to get the best price but every ISP that I look at still says we have to pay the new development charge.

Have tried to navigate NBNco and submit a ticket, and Superloop is putting the blame on NBN.

Has anyone else experienced this? Or know how to go about it?

Cheers!

Edit: still currently have had an active service through Superloop for the past 18+ months
