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...

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 Edit: Basically what Simon said Edited October 10, 2016 by UNR33L Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/458531-vic-wasteland-thread-150/page/552/#findComment-7782687 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leroy Peterson Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 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.

Leroy Peterson Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 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.

Leroy Peterson Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 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.
