Moving to FTTP will be your only choice in a few years. I would figure out the cable run as soon as you can and take advantage of FTTP now.…

All good. Yeah nbn can take their time to activate a townhouse complex. Nice, the eero 7 router is suitable.
01/07/2025 - 21:08
Some providers have said no price increase. For what speed? Who is your provider?
01/07/2025 - 20:55
I was talking about your router dropouts and webpages not loading which shouldn't be affected by CG-NAT. Spintel's Sydney POP location is a…

Nothing, 50/20 doesn't get a speed boost.
01/07/2025 - 17:58
Yeah what I said above applies to new signups using OptiComm. Existing Exetel OptiComm users get grandfathered. They may move you across to…

Yeah disable Asus QoS. What 5GHz Wi-Fi speed do you get now?
01/07/2025 - 17:36
$65/month is not bad. 100/20 gets boosted to 500/50 FTTP from September.
01/07/2025 - 17:34
I reckon $200/month. How deep is your wallet?
01/07/2025 - 17:16
CG-NAT can break remote access and doesn't let you host online P2P games. If you don't do any of the things I mentioned you won't be…

RT-AX82U can do 500Mbps. Is that over Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet?
01/07/2025 - 17:13
Vision Network can be g.fast or VDSL2 depending on your building.
01/07/2025 - 17:03
Yeah the TPG rep is giving you the wrong information. FTTP is the best you can get. What FTTP speed did you signup for? Don't forget to…

I've noticed some others getting IP blocked by Carsales and apparently it's due to their DDOS protection provider. I don't have any problem…

Your latency may increase a few milliseconds and you can't host online P2P games with CG-NAT on. Otherwise it's fine.
01/07/2025 - 14:22
I don't get captcha puzzles often with CG-NAT. It can happen with some websites.
01/07/2025 - 14:01
Purchase a new mesh router setup that replaces both the Telstra SMG3 and Tenda MW3.
01/07/2025 - 13:51

All good. eero 7 or eero Pro 7 may give you faster Wi-Fi results.
01/07/2025 - 13:21
Same here but yeah it depends if the camera NVR is configured for a local or cloud server.
01/07/2025 - 13:12
Thanks for the update. I will update the deal soon.
01/07/2025 - 12:34
Only if you make the change yourself.
01/07/2025 - 12:32
500Mbps Wi-Fi is possible with a router that has Wi-Fi 5 or Wi-Fi 6. Select Wi-Fi 6 router can do 900-1000Mbps.
01/07/2025 - 12:28
500Mbps Wi-Fi is achievable if your router and device support 5GHz. Telstra smart modem gen 3 is capable of 500Mbps Wi-Fi. Tenda MW3 only…
01/07/2025 - 12:26
