VERYSTORMY Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 I am looking at finally getting round to having internet put in the house - at the moment we just have a ipad with a sim card. But any recommendations for which one? We have ewire to the house if that makes any difference and I think we also have a Telstra connection. I was looking at the optus bundle, but the online reviews are terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 We are with Internode. No complaints, decent price for lots of GB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicF Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) We are with a Internode as well. Our internet is really slow but that is the ancient Telstra infrastructure and the miles to the exchange and not anything to do with Internode. They were really helpful when we were trying to get Internet to start with. Edited October 3, 2015 by NicF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VERYSTORMY Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Where are you, and what do you want to do? We are in Mandurah which is south of Perth. We want fast speed, with either a very high data allowance or preferably unlimited as I intend to hook up a couple of smart TV's as well as run the ipad and laptop.

Parley Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Depends on how much you want to pay. Telstra are the best but more expensive. I'm on Telstra cable and it is awesome. I'm not sure I'd be committing to a contract in your shoes though. The other day you said you may have to default on your mortgage shortly so is it a priority.

Paul1Perth Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 We're with iinet and have been for years. They are really good and you can even understand their support staff when you ring up, no getting put through to Delhi for someone to ask if you've got the power turned on. We have our phone service and internet with them, ADSL/2, decent speed up and down and iinet upgraded us to unlimited usage without us having to ask. Only problem we've had is when we had problems with the phone. After heavy rains a couple of times the phone started buzzing and then stopped working. Even though I knew it would be a problem with Telstras pits and equipment you have to ring iinet for them to lodge a call with Telstra, who don't rush as you aren't their customer. IInet were brilliant though, after a few days of no action I rang iinet and the lady on support had me on one line and the Telstra guy on the other to get the message across. We've had the problem twice now and both times it's been Telstra equipment so no charge to us. I've heard that iinet have now been taken over by TPG but had nothing from iinet to say anything about it. Billing is still from iinet, website still says iinet and the support sounds as though it's still local. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
