What do I need to access wireless broadband on my desktop PC? Thanks, Simish

I've just moved into a unit in Kensington NSW. There is cable available in the building. I was wondering what would be my best option, ADSL2 or cable? I need something fast with a big download for watching TV online. What would you recommend? I'm not too worried about the price. Eugene.

I'm going to North Qld and Kimberley. and would like to take my laptop with me. What prepaid Broadband do you recommend? Note it would be only for 3 months. Regards Dusan.

I live in Noosa, Qld. I currently am on an ADSL plan with TPG & have being tryingto upgrade to ADSL2+ (With any providor) but have been advsied that there are no ports at the local exchange. With the NBN not expected here for at least 3 years, I appear to be doomed to slow internet speeds. Not fully understanding the wireless network, would it be available in Noosa, reliability, what sort of download speeds could I expect & what extra hardware would I need? Thanks, Roy

I will travel to Perth at the end of June. I am thinking of buying a prepaid mobile braodband for my tablets. The purpose of this is to use GPS. Please advise whether I can buy the SIM card only or starter pack from the Perth Airport. Thanks, Hew

I am looking for an internet and mobile phone provider whereby I can talk to people who are based IN AUSTRALIA when I have problems. I have been with Telstra for the past 20 years and finally I have made the decision that I need to move on. I want a cheaper service but I am willing to pay a bit extra if I can talk to people that I can trust will answer my queries. Mary.

I am with aapt I get 100GB and phone with $50.00 of calls, of which I use about $35.00. Of the 50GB on and 50GB off peak, I use about 45GB I am on ADSL1 1500 speed. I would like a faster speed but we do not get ADSL2, I think I can get speeds of 8000. Stephen

Unsure what kind of service to get, have two boys, one loves Youtube, and the other wants to play online with his Playstation. Also we live in Beaconsfield Tasmania, and apparently some providers don't work here and we have no home line. Thankyou, Meilin

Do I need a landline connected to get unlimited wireless broadband which allows up to 5 people to connect? David.

I am looking to reduce my costs of telephone and internet usage. Current monthly average use is: Landline $15 calls Mobile I use $200 of $400 monthly allowance Internet 2gb a month, likely to go to 3-4GB Currently with Telstra paying $160 for all three, which seems very costly for what I am using. Friend suggested don't have landline, go wireless broadband and mobile with unlimited calls maybe. What would you suggest? I live on Tamborine Mountain SE QLD, so would have to check reception of broadband wireless. I look forward to hearing from you Many thanks, Sandy.

Do you have any fibre-optic internet available for my address? Thanks, Jan

We have Telstra  ADSL and phone plus 5 mobiles all offplan currently. Need good speed ADSL for a family of 5, 5 mobile plans with free intra family calls, cheap international and interstate calls - what package do you provide?

I'm traveling to Australia this fall for two weeks and would like to use either my iPhone or iPad for Internet access. What is the most economical way to have access to the Internet while traveling?

I am looking for the best value mobile broadband plan. I will not be at this address for more than 12 months. I want Telstra reliability and download speeds but not their prices! I was told Virgin had good prices but reviews say they are poor quality. I'm probably looking for 10 GB and have the ability to go up and down plans as I establish what a consistent usage I'll use. I'm in Adelaide suburbs and have ADSL2 if that helps. Thanks, Tony.

Hi, I have been looking at the 12GB mobile broadband plan with Virgin, but am not sure  how fast the download speeds will be. Can you give me any advice? I am in inner Sydney CBD. Cheers

Hi, I usually move my house every 6months/1 year within Melbourne. I am currently living in Kilsyth, VIC. Is there any type of broadband account that: 1. I can move it to another locations as I move? 2. To be able to setup my broadband account in my new location, should the new house have the phone line? is it the only requirement? 3. Is there any account that I can put it on hold in case I move to a house which already has internet? Thanks a lot for your help, Jonas

Hi I currently have a Optus home phone and internet bundle. For $102 per month I currently get 1000gb of internet and all my home calls included. I am moving to an area where Optus insn't available and was wondering if you could tell me of a similar product that I could look into. Thank you, Jackie.

How much GB do I need? I use mainly for homework, browing facebook, emails and download some music. Urania.

We are 4 persons living in one flat so what's the best plan for us? Naser.

What would you recommend for internet access? Currently I have a mobile with Telstra $99 per month with some internet access. I have a basic home landline with Telstra around $40-$50 per month. And I'm on dial up with Bigpond at $30 per month. I'd like to upgrade my internet access at home and bundle everything to get a good price per month. I want to be able to use my laptop in different parts of the house. Down the track I'd like to get an Ipad and be able to use this away from home like I do my mobile. Thanks for your time. Sonia

Hi there I just need a plan that includes STD, local and some mobile phone calls, with BB (cable) that is the cheapest YET easy to use if I need help as I am 80 years old. no more then a 12 month plan please. Thank you

I am supposed to have broadband which the US Communications Commission defines as delivering a minimum download speed of 4Mbts per second but my Optus service shows only around 50kBts to 150kBts per second which the US refers to as "baseband." Have I and everyone else just got baseband and are being deceived.

Looking for a bundle home phone and internet. The cheapest I have found - Home advantage free 50 GB from Optus which seems good. Do you have any other options? Lisa.

Our internet is rubbish. Apparently we are in a bad area. Drops out all the time. Very slow. Is there something better for our area???

Hi, Im moving into a new place, and from what I am told, there is no phone line - landlord wont pay for it - and apparently no copper wires available or nearby. What are my options? Is wireless the only option - I want to avoid it, as it is usually costly Thanks! Andrew

Currenty in new factory with no phone never been connected but have the phone line inside, I really want naked internet as I wouldn't be using the phone line, what plan is available?

Looking for best plan for family of six, 4 kids need internet for studying.

I've just bought my first house and looking to get reliable internet and maybe some phone calls (tend to use mobile but if it wasn't too expensive to add calls I would consider it). In the house there is a phone jack, however I think the line might not be active anymore...I certainly can't find a number for it (but don't have a handset that I can use to test the line). Thanks, Claire.

I just need wifi for me and my 2 student daughters. I might start a business so i might need a home phone again... Help I find this all so confusing//Regards Lena

I am with Virgin for home and internet at $70 p/m. All I have is a modem, which my internet runs off and I plug my phone cable into the side. I want to get another system the same, but want more internet. At the moment I have 4Gb p/m. All the large companies tell me that there is no system that I can do that with at the moment. I know Dodo has a buddy system not sure how it or Voip works. Hoping you can assist me. I do not want the phoine line into the wall from outside as we have to many problems. Thanking You

I currently have ADSL2 with TPG. What will happen when NBN is available in September? Can TPG provide an NBN connection and service of must I change provicers? I am in Armidale NSW

What is the best plan? Pamela.

Does optus support Macs?

I have ADSL broadband through Optus and have started to exceed my monthly quota. I think my plan has a 7Gb per month limit which we rarely exceed. My home phone is through Telstra. I run a wireless router so we can use laptops, iPads etc. I would prefer to keep the Telstra phone and upgrade the Internet to get greater capacity but would consider a bundle. What options are best? Post code 2904.

Hi, I live in Albury in a shared accommodation, I don't want the line rental at all. I was wondering if this MYNETFONE needs a line rental to run or can it run by itself and still provide me good amount of data. I am not understanding this, please explain. I want at least 20gb data monthly but no line rental and maximum i can spend monthly is $60. Thanks for your support. John.

Do I need to have a land line connected to have cable broad band?

We require cable broadband. I do not know what naked broadband is

Please check coverage first - I live in QLD 4077. I need to connect phone and internet (bundle) (wireless catering for two separate computers). Data download is low, Skype is essential. Wireless Router is required. Unlimited calls to mobiles, landline and national would be preferrable. Many thanks. Thao

My friends and I have a 16 week lease in Jindabyne NSW over winter and would like no contract broadband. There'll be 6 of us using a lot of data and do not require home phone. Mobile broadband is useless in Jindabyne during winter as all the mountain staff have it and the service drops out when everyone gets home after 5pm. Just want to know which providers will offer no contract plans in that area with higher speeds and data limits. We can provide our own modem/router. Luke.

I'm a pensioner. I just want to know which broadband provider offer concession to pensioner. Thanks, Phil.

We have Mac computers and would like to know if your adsl 2 supports macs. We trialled your mobile broadband but it was not compatible with Macs so returned the equiptment. We were told we would have to have a windows computer to set it up on first?

Looking for a Broadband plan only and want to leave my phone with Telstra

With Naked Broadband 200GB ($49.95 per month) is this include home phone? I need to have a home phone, I am moving to my new home and I don't have a phone line. Majid.

I'm moving to country South Australia - the area is covered for Telstra mobile broadband & I wonder if I'm better off not having a landline phone (just using mobile phone) and using a USB mobile broadband device for the computer, or stick with an ADSL2 modem (which coverage is also available) & bundle up the phone, computer etc.?

Hi there. I currently have wireless internet. I've got a 5 gig plan. We pay roughly $36 per month. I've been using the computer a lot more lately and need to get more gig. Would someone be able to help me out on the cheapest price? Still want to stay with wireless. My currant provider is Optus. Brian.

I'm looking for a good wireless broadband deal which provides more than 15gb of data a month. I am in a rural area which is only suitable for wireless broadband. I'm currently with telstra and there doesn't seem to be any deals suitable for this rural area that offer any more than 15gb per month. Can you help me? Sincerely, Diana Underwood

I am in Sydney for another 5 months and need a faster internet connection. Currently i am using Telstra; a 4GB/$49/month deal. I use my iphone as a hotspot for my other devices. Price is fine, the speed is not !! I need to be able to Skype, and it's hopeless. A contract doesn't work for me, obviously. The apartment i am renting does have a land-based phone connection apparently, tho i have never used it. Would prefer mobile if it is possible, but whatever it takes to get decent speed. Thanks !!

What is the best for connecting an Ipad 2 to the internet? I have ADSL 2 for my main computer. Wayne.

i want to know why i cant get a landline phone with adsl when everyone around me can???

We are travelling around and working our way around Australia. Currently we are using Telstra Next G mobile broadband, but it costs way too much. We're using around 8 to 10 g a month. Do you have anything better? Regards, Garry.
