Grandkids have one and guys has a Samsung 10 inch tablet . I want one of them lol
Donna has a 10 inch tablet too. It's a good size for interwebbing ! She is on a prepaid $26 plan from Optus ( $26 recharge will give you $30 Credit, $220 MyBonus, $250 Optus Money and up to 5GB of Data within Oz which expires in 45 days )
yuippeee.. got my 1012 / 20718 kbps back !! telstra bloke just left and he said NO fault in the exchange, i should have been notified he was coming . it was a corroded socket in the house ! i haven't heard anything from node since 8 the January.. i hounded them by fone nearly every day ... will see how long this connection holds up !
they cut the socket off completely and made the main line in the one in the kitchen . I don't know about charge , nothing said today ..will jump that hurdle when / if it comes 
They probably get those corroded sockets all the time on the coast. Glad you're back to full steam Deb. 
The corroded one was the main on ... the other one was an extension in the kitchen . so thats now my main line in ... hoping he doesnt charge me, but being the main socket buggered he would have had to fix it anyway wouldnt he ?

He should have fixed the socket - not disable it and force the residents to change their stuff.
I think he was from the company called Lazy-R-Us
It's good that it's back and working though!

Fixed !
I always had my modem hanging off the kitchen socket anyway. and I dont mind the fone being disabled in K's bedroom , not that it was ever plugged in much but it was always a PITA when it was ...
Tested my speed on Speedtestnet with Windows 10 in VMware Player and got this result, whether or not it was the repaired line or Windows 10 I don't know.
Or care
Hope your going ok now Deb.
