well its taken a month, a bunch of headaches and more questions than answers, but my telstra cable is finally setup.

comparison:

Is it worth the trouble and an extra $10 a month? if it can maintain over 10mb/s 24/7 then yes.

The provided modem/router is pretty useless... wont tell you speeds or chart usage or even let you change login username (wtf, stuck on admin forever). Now just to figure out if I can use my Fritzbox for Wifi only...

 

If you're into gaming, it's worth the upgrade just for the better ping

So is this shit? Never been impressed by our internet speeds and we have had this Optus Cable for the last 6+ years.

Yes that's pretty shit, Optus should be able to provide you 30mbps down 1 mbps up pretty easily - worth a phone call 

30 down 1 up is considered 'standard' cable speed and 100 down 2 up is considered 'ultiamte' cable speed which you'll need to pay extra for but still possible on cable. 

For reference my Telstra cable gets about 30-35 down and 1 up 

Leeroy has a special situation where he has reasons for the shitty-er cable speed I'm sure :D 

Edit: Basically what Simon said

becoz Rowville. one of those suburbs that sprawled too long ago to be completely f**ked in infrastructure so NBN wasn't a priority *cough* pakenham berwick westernburbs *cough*

internet was out from 8pm to 11:30pm last night... Telstra didnt list any outages. oh well, long as its nothing on my end.

he was probably vaccinated as a child. so we've come full circle.

vaccinations lead to autism. autism leads to rape culture. rape culture leads to Social Justice Warriors. Social Justice Warriors may or may not vaccinate their kids.

VWL, i ordered a CBA credit card through Netbank, order wasnt progressing so I had to go into a branch and put in a new order. The lady kept screwing up the amounts in every field (didnt seem deliberate, just clumsy) and now I've got my card the credit limit is more than double what I asked her to enter.

No doubt she would get a kick-back for that. Do I change it and make a complaint? or ignore it and just be bawler? im pretty good with credit, not sure if its an added risk if card goes missing or scammed.

U'll be rite m8

I've had a 27k limit for about 5 years now, limit doesn't mean anything just dont go buy a car on credit card

Limit is what matters re: borrowing power (As you have the ability to draw on it in full at any time)

Most likely scenario (apart from f**kup) is the specific product has a minimum limit, which you given as you had shown adequate serviceability in the app.

 

 

but if the bank person makes commission on selling credit cards... then why have a limit field at all when applying? its like selling a house for $600k, then the real estate agent writing $1.2mil on the books just for that % bonus.

in short

so... they just put it down as extra so that im more likely to have to pay interest to the bank? if she gets nothing out of it, then why f**k with my application?

I'll probably have to decrease it eventually if ever getting a mortgage or large loan.

e.g. The specific card has a minimum of say $5k and this is noted in the app form, however you want $2.5k they will have to give you $5k provided you can service it.

Not however saying it wasn't simply a f**kup

What difference does it make if you don't actually use the limit?

Effects nobody

How do you pay extra interest to a bank if you haven't drawn the funds?

That's like complaining that you have been given the ability to drive your car on both eastlink and citylink when you only wanted the ability to drive on eastlink, i.e. fkin retarded

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
