Telstra have been giving modems free of charge to me for over 20 years.

I always remind them i have been a good cutomer. Wink

My latest modem has 4G backup so when NBN goes down it switches to mobile service.

If it cuts out or is unreliable i disconnect WAN cable from NBN to Modem and it goes straight to 4G.



Same here Baron.

Always FREE

We’ve never had issues with Telstra. Optus was a nightmare.

Note : I’m referring to Telstra Business vs Optus Business.

Never had a problem


Had so many free modems i expect them to supply it for free. Wink

I had a couple of issues with Telstra internet over the last 2 decades called Technical support we sorted it out over the phone. Their technical support is really good.

Re : Telstra Technical Support (Business) - very well trained experienced staff AND they are Aussies so you can understand their English. Free modems even. Telstra is nothing like Optus (thank God).

Personal technical support is back in Australia.

It was in the Phillipines and India until recently didn't have any problems understanding them they fixed all problems.

I was with Optus in the 90s never going back.

Telstra residential support should never have gone offshore. Optus STILL uses overseas call centres.

As stated previously ... my posts relate to Telstra Business Support. Telstra are amazing IF you’re a business client. That’s the main target group they pitch to/aim for.

Telstra Business support is still absolute CRAP.

Telstra are good for the right people,
not for idiots like Monk and Smith the habitual whiners.

Like Commonwealth Bank - designed to support Australian BIG BUSINESS, especially upon the 'Commonwealth' international scene.
Then all the 'peasant' drop-kicks join it and wonder why it doesn't treat them like CEO's and such.  Roll Eyes

Maybe Smith & Monk should go back to Froggy or some 'small time' entity to appease their 'lack of'.


Look that IS the preferred target group that Telstra pitches to (hence my initial comment in this topic).

They are absolutely terrific IF you are a bona fide business client. You get much better and faster support. Everyone else gets placed behind you in the queue.

Also with Telstra Business we have only ever spoken with Australian call centre tech/managers. Our problems (I can’t even remember the last one we had now that I think of it) were actioned overnight AND out of hours. Within 24 hrs we were back up and running.

If you’re merely a Telstra residential customer - then you’d probably be getting the left over resources (which I personally don’t like but I’m in no position to do much about it either).

One other thing ...Optus is far worse for both residential and business clients. I can (unfortunately) personally assure you all of that.

When NBN satellite proved sadly insufficient I changed to ADSL—since satellite was the only NBN technology here ADSL was possible. Pretty much unlimited data but pathetic speed.

Good old Telstra—sent me some paperwork, didn’t send a modem! I tried using the modem that came with the satellite service—didn’t work, you HAVE to use Telstra gear. I got a bill. When I made it clear I was not going to pay that account finally a modem arrived.

Stuff Telstra.

Why bother? Starlink is about the same price for a premium service and much more reliable. For a few dollars extra you can have Starlink Roaming -The best thing since sliced bread for Yachties (and bushies).

Yup, I have Starlink. 200:20 is better than ADSL!

With Starlink Roam, I get excellent coverage as long as I'm no more than 100km from the Australian coastline and seamless mobile phone coverage.

In a couple of years I will escape Tassy winter, Queensland sounds nice, and get the Starlink service that you can set up in different locations every day, or just hang off my mobile phone.
