      Its still around
      Why would you want telstra to instead of foxtel

      • [Deactivated] on 25/03/2017 - 12:17

        $99/month for 1000GB cable (at my address) internet plus Foxtel with HD Sports is actually really good value. Any idea if this will be full speed 100mBit connection? $20 extra per month for speed boost, so it's still OK but not as great as initially thought. Might try & negotiate speedboost on top of the deal with one of their reps.

        • bdl on 25/03/2017 - 12:19

          Foxtel with HD Sports only for 3 months :(

          @bdl:

          Shit I thought it was the whole time. Cheeky feckers. Now it's just a mediocre deal. What a shame, I was ready to commit to 24 months if if the sports package was for the duration.

        • Al Kider on 25/03/2017 - 13:15

          @Sir Casm: I have the same deal, it's stated as a gift from the start. Maybe whoever sold it to you forgot to mention that.

          I had the old telstra TV deal (this one) and 'upgraded' to the foxtel deal so now I have both. Foxtel basic is meh, only like 9-10 channels with any TV content and even then most content is crap. The majority of the channels are news and music channels. The pvr is great though and worth it to me to record stuff.

        • [Deactivated] on 25/03/2017 - 13:17

          @Al Kider:

          The only benefit I'll get from it is live sport in HD, the only other broadcast TV I watch is the news when I happen to be home to see it. Luckily I didn't pull the trigger on this offer.

        • Al Kider on 25/03/2017 - 13:52

          @Sir Casm: yeh, the deal is meh but I was already paying 100pm anyway. I will say they telstra TV box is pretty good, only it lacks the main roku app store and more importantly the plex app.

          I don't watch Foxtel, but I have two elderly parents who need the landline.

          I won't disagree that in monetary value, Foxtel is worth more than a landline's calls. But not everyone sees it as being more useful than a landline.

          I myself prefer making landline to landline calls over mobile, because the signal clarity of a landline is unbeatable. You don't have reception issues or voice breaking up like you do with mobiles. If I'm calling a landline number, I always use a landline if one is available.

        • tin tin on 25/03/2017 - 10:55

          @lostn: Agreed and also using landline you aren't exposing yourself to radiation risk of putting a high power transmitter next to your brain.

        • bchliu on 25/03/2017 - 11:03

          How can 3 months of Foxtel be a "better" deal? It's not like the free foxtel was for 24 months. That would be a different deal.

          The other deal is free Foxtel
          But you can to choose a free addon.

          As lostnsaid it's a better deal for him because his grandparents need the landline which is fair enough

        • DeWalt on 25/03/2017 - 12:34

          @Hirolol:I downvoted it mainly because I have no interest in Foxtel. Also, I'd rather free calls any day than 3 months of Foxtel. And yes, I'm old and a VoIP user :)

        • coxymla on 25/03/2017 - 15:28

          @lostn: Landlines are VOIP now. The voice quality will be the same or worse versus mobile.

          @coxymla: Not worse. VOIP depends on the internet connection. Mobile depends on satellite/tower reception. Internet is more stable than satellite.

          @bchliu: It was Free foxtel for the whole 24 months only the HD sport or Movie packs were for 3 months

    • UltimateAI on 25/03/2017 - 10:07

      Foxtel was a limited package for 3 months and didn't include calls or the Telstra TV. The smaller.bundles has the Telstra tv but not the Foxtel one

      Not Cheap as far as broadband goes, but it's one of Telstra's best.
      Was better when it had 3 months Netflix thrown in.

      • Hirolol on 25/03/2017 - 13:02

        The other deal they currently run with foxtel is free foxtel (most likely for the life of the bundle) but then you can choose one of the addon she they specify but that is only for 3 months

        • UltimateAI on 25/03/2017 - 13:40

          I have not seen that, are you not thinking of the Foxtel nbn bundle from Foxtel (ie: not Telstra).

    Ancient deal, if it included calls it would be a good deal. But all they've done is reduced the price from previous deals & taken the calls out

    • lostn on 25/03/2017 - 13:40

      The calls are included according to the OP's post.

      • RogueWolf on 25/03/2017 - 13:58

        yeah mixed it up with the other deal where its foxel & 1tb no calls, this deal is similar but they've taken foxtel out & added calls & telstra tv, really nothing special just standard telstra tight ass packages

    does anyone know if the telstra gateway modem is necessary for cable? its a $168 additional cost while similar gateway modems are going for $50 on eBay. could i just plug and play an eBay modem?

    • Trantor on 25/03/2017 - 10:36

      I'm sure it comes at no extra cost, but if they have started charging, i'm sure you can haggle with the rep to throw it in for free.

    • tin tin on 25/03/2017 - 11:00

      For an expensive plan like this surely they will throw modem in for free.

    • Kiato on 25/03/2017 - 11:25

      Yes the modem is nessecary as they offer little to no support for bringing in your own modem. The cost of the modem is free, the fee of $89 is a administration fee and the $249 is a service fee for a tech to come out and run lines etc. If you have foxtel in your house already you can probably get the $249 fee waved as they use the same lines.

      I had the asus ac68u router modem already which has much stronger wifi capabilities so i ended up setting the telstra one in bridge mode and using the asus as my access point. Seems to be working flawlessly in this manner

      • XeKToReX on 25/03/2017 - 12:07

        Telstra now supply a cable modem and separate router, not the modem router combo they used to.

        • bdl on 25/03/2017 - 12:17

          What model is the cable modem these days? I still have a few of the CIsco EPC3925s around as spares cause they bridge well :)

        • lostn on 25/03/2017 - 13:42

          I prefer a modem router, because it's less clutter (I really don't have space for two units), less power plugs, and if you have a UPS with 3 battery powered ports like I have, that's one for monitor, one for desktop, and one for modem/router. With a separate modem and router, when the power goes out briefly, you're going to lose your internet.

        • Nousernamehere on 25/03/2017 - 14:17

          @lostn: Just run a basic power board from the UPS. That's what I do, have about 6 devices hooked up to my UPS (NAS, modem, switch, 2x external hard drives, cordless phone) all just running off a basic 8 plug power board.

        • lostn on 25/03/2017 - 14:45

          @Porthos: UPS recommend not doing that. Also one battery powered port is probably not going to be able to support your 8 strip board.

        • Kiato on 25/03/2017 - 15:05

          The gateway max is a modem router, unless this has changed in the past 2-3 weeks than the gateway max is the device you will recieve. tesltra gateway max info

          Overall the device isn't to bad i just found the drop off on the wifi range to be to great in my home, so i decided to bridge the device and use my stronger wifi device as the signal source.

        • XeKToReX on 25/03/2017 - 18:00

          @Kiato:

          They are all ADSL/VDSL modem/routers but OP specifically mentioned cable, they don't offer an integrated cable modem/router any more as a preemptive measure for the HFC NBN

        • Nousernamehere on 25/03/2017 - 21:33

          @lostn: Err yes it can.

          If you load it up with lots of power sucking devices, then of course it won't handle it. Adding in a separate router for your setup isn't going to make a bit of difference to the overall run time of your UPS considering how little power modems/routers/switches use.

          With having all the devices I said earlier connected, I still have 30 mins run time as reported by my NAS (and this is a N54L with 6 hard drives in it running off a CyberPower Value 600EI).

        • lostn on 25/03/2017 - 21:41

          @Porthos: All of my devices are power sucking, so yeah.

          I don't want to use any split adapters on a battery powered slot. Just not going to do it. I have too many of them attached to one power outlet already.

          A 2 in 1 vs 2 separate devices, I will always take the 2 in 1 because my desk just doesn't have the space for it. And these days they are not making AC routers that stand up vertically.

        • Nousernamehere on 25/03/2017 - 21:47

          @lostn: Very doubtful your modem is sucking anywhere near what your PC and monitor are. I'm not suggesting people whack in a power strip and run an entire LAN party off one UPS, but running the modem and a separate router from your UPS will seriously make that little a difference with the load on it it would barely even be measurable.

          Your other points are fair enough, I have everything of mine that I mentioned in a robe as that's where all my network ports are terminated. So to me having multiple devices doesn't make a difference to me in that regard.

  • T-man on 25/03/2017 - 10:32

          @leTintin: Call up again and speak to a different operator. Some of them will tell you it's impossible, or they're not allowed, or have to ask the manager. Others will just do it.

        • unifex on 25/03/2017 - 23:14

          @lostn: I got $30 off when i negotiated a few years ago. Later they threw in speedboost as well.

          So currently I have 500GB 100Meg Cable connection with home phone for $58/month (with 3 top ups a year)

        • lostn on 28/03/2017 - 19:45

          @unifex: I could get used to that. Nice deal you scored.

          I have no idea if 500GB is enough. Unlimited plans don't have any way to track your downloads each month. I might be doing less than 500GB, or I might be doing more. There's just no way to know. I suspect I'll be fine with it.

    • rye on 25/03/2017 - 10:40

      "+ speed boost" - which one? All plans include the "fast speed boost" which is 25/5 for fixed NBN. I haggled a few months back and got the $90 (500GB) plan with a $15 a month discount, plus the 'very fast speed boost' for free (norm $20 a month).

          Depend on where you live. If your area have optus and telstra, a chance for u to get the deal is very likely. In my area, I can only get telstra, so doesn't matter who you talk to, no discount at all :(

  • bohn on 25/03/2017 - 10:39
    +1

    Just remember Telstra defaults you to 25/5 and makes you pay for a speed boost to 50/20 and then another to 100/40 (if you are able to get those speeds).
    You can usually negotiate to get these included while signing up.

    • Vyro on 25/03/2017 - 11:37

      You reckon they'll give anything to someone who's never been on Telstra?

          Or unlimited telstra 4g for 299/month.

          Bit of a dark art to get it via business reps but it is available. Also gives you upto 10 share sims for the account as well.

      Because 4 ISPS so far that I've tried all have major congestion at night time.

        This. I use to bag Telstra then I moved to a Telstra only area and was amazed.

    I'm on $95 a month with 100mb 1000gb do people use landlines these days?

    • lovetravellinginbiz on 25/03/2017 - 11:52

      so free speedboost?

      • chris666 on 25/03/2017 - 14:45

        Just said I got full adsl2 speeds so the normal plan would be a waste of time and that's what i got offered was paying $99 for adsl2 so works out cheaper and 4x the speed

      Alarm systems do use landlines :)

      Plenty of areas still depend on landlines.

    • rye on 25/03/2017 - 13:22

      Haven't used my landline in years. Have one though… no phone connected lol.
      I'm on the 500GB 50/20 for $75 (discounted by $15 a month and free 'very fast speed boost'). Not all that bad of a deal considering its Telstra. Until I moved I was payin $80 for crappy ADSL1 with 200GB.

      Yes had to fax off some forms to the bank. I had to plug the mfp in, shikes I thought they were dead.

      Worked fine over nbn FTTN

    Instead of just say 1TB, Telstra marketing is trying hard to make this looks really really big bargains. They should have said "a whopping 1,000,000 MB !!"
    Yes, they probably already thought of x 1024 instead of x 1000 as well.
