Lack of options for Mobile Broadband users.

I am really disappointed with the lack of options i have because my only internet option is Mobile Broadband. I live in an area, that Telstra decided, didnt need to change with the times so we get no ADSL internet as the exchange is too far away and Telstra dont feel the need to upgrade so the whole town can get ADSL. The NBN is everywhere around us but here and the mobile broadband is a bit sketchy as we have poor reception in our area. There are no bundling options for mobile broadband and discounts are quite poor. Paying $60 pm for 8 gb of data , which lasts about 2 weeks at my place (teenaged kids) if im lucky. I have since got Foxtel through telstra and also have my home phone also. So now I pay well over $200 per month for these services. It is annoying to know that people can get all this with multiple times more data and included calls for lees than half of what i pay. So why are we being taken advantage of just because Telstra havent provided decent infrastructure for us to get ADSL.  

Hello,The reason that Telstra are limiting their infrastructure is that the NBN will make their network largely redundant, and will not spend money to tide their customers until NBNThere is also major congestion even in inner suburbs of major cities.Sorry, but as a customer also, I am unable to help you.Thanks

  • Trial for mobile broadband as my home internet service in rural loctaion

    : Moved to EE Mobile Network as more appropriate.

    Hi ,
    There is 4G coverage in your area but it is rated as variable indoors so it might not be suitable to use as your main internet connection.
    We do not offer a trial service for mobile broadband but you can get a free pay as you go Sim if you have a suitable 4G phone or device to try it in.
    Have you checked to see if we can provide a landline broadband connection at your property?

  • Outlook 2013 Calendar lacks color options for months and "Today"?

    Am I missing settings in Outlook 2013 that would allow me to color months different/alternating colors and brightly highlight "Today", specifically in the Month view for the calendar?  I see I can change the color of the overall calendar,
    but that does nothing to address my problems.  
    Background: The month view for the calendar in Outlook 2010 was wonderfully glance-able. The current month had one color background, and the bordering months had a different color, allowing you to easily see the months.  Also, "Today" was brightly
    highlighted in light yellow, making it easy to discern which day on the calendar was the current day.  As far as I can see in Outlook 2013, these are both now missing.  Months are all the same color, making it hard to scroll through and keep any
    sense of what's being presented visually.  Today is denoted by a tiny blue bar that blends into all the blue bars of uncategorized appointments, again making it much harder to find than it should be.  If there is no option to change the highlighting,
    Outlook has taken a huge step back in usability in my eyes.

    I found a good way of highlighting today's appointments in weekly and monthly view using conditional formatting:
    . go to Edit - Automatic Formatting
    . click Add
    . in the Name field enter "Today"
    . in the Label field choose a color
    . click on Condition...
    . on Appointments and Meetings tab where it says Time:
    . choose "starts"
    . choose "today"
    . click OK
    . click OK
    While not ideal, that sounds like a decent hack to highlight today, provided I have an appointment.
    However, in trying to put into practice, it's picking up all of my reoccurring appointments that are set to reoccur with no end by date, and it's not picking up the reoccurring appointments that have a defined end by date that it should be getting highlighted
    (as they occur today).  
    Even using the advanced filter to require the "Start" be "today" and the "End" be "today" it still highlights the same wrong appointments.  And unless I'm misunderstanding the logic, the "Recurrence Range End" field flag appears to be broken, as I _still_
    get  the same behavior by setting the condition to "exists" (apparently a setting of "No End Date" puts some sort of data into the field).

  • How to disable remote wipe option for mobile devices

    Hi,
    I have integrated environment of SCCM 2012 R2 and Windows Intune. I am managing Windows phone, Android and IOS devices through this setup. I was trying find an option to disable remote wipe option in the SCCM Console. Only selective wipe should be available.
    Can you please help me on how to configure this setting.
    Regards
    Leela

    I got the below response from the micososft intune team.
    "Issue Definition: Cx would like remote wipe disabled
    in the Admin console.
    Scope Agreement: Disable remote wipe feature from account.
    You will not be able to block this feature using Microsoft Intune.  System
    Center Configuration Manager might be able to control this feature.  You
    might consider opening a case with their team.
    The other thing to consider, is to limit the amount of Admin users you have.
    Anyone that is given Admin rights in Microsoft Intune will have the ability to
    use the wipe feature.  "
    I have raised a ticket with SCCM 2012 team, awaiting their response.

  • Options for validating a user logon

    We have a third party application for which a database user account was created for each user. Is it possible for APEX to validate the logon by using the existing database accounts or do you have to create an APEX account for each user? Also, can logons be validated by using a custom table that has users and encrypted passwords stored in it? Are you forced to create an APEX user in order to use APEX?

    Well, we'd already figured out authentication via a different schema for a different project, so we were able to use what we already had.
    The issue is that fnd_web_sec.validate_login() doesn't work if it's not called from the APPS schema. This can be worked around by creating a "wrapper" function; here's ours:
    create or replace package body apps.hypr_web_sec as
      function authenticate( i_username in varchar2, i_password in varchar2 ) return boolean is
      begin
        return( apps.fnd_web_sec.validate_login(i_username,i_password) = 'Y');
      exception
        when others then return false;
      end authenticate;
    end apps.hypr_web_sec;We've got some other useful functions in there, but that's the key to authenticating outside of the APPS schema.

  • One potential option for Windows 7 users who have lost data with iOS 4.0

    Windows 7 has a feature like Timemachine on the mac. It quietly keeps backups of all files and folders whenever they change, if you have System Restore switched on. I wonder if it can be used to retrieve old versions of the Mobilesync/Backup folder before the iOS4 update? One problem with itunes is is overwrites any old backups in the Mobilesync folder when doing the installation process.
    This feature in Windows is explained here:
    http://lifehacker.com/5477132/use-windows-system-restore-to-recover-individual-f iles
    This maybe worth trying for those running windows 7.
    Whether this will work for folks depends on a lot of assumptions on my part:
    1. ioS4 is broadly ok so the error is not there,
    2. the install process for iOS4 is ok,
    3. the restore feature is working in itunes 9.2 to install valid backups of application and user data back after installing iOS4
    4. the root cause is the backups itunes 9.2 makes are easily corrupted in certain (unknown) scenarios. Hence the objective of looking for another uncorrupted backup on your PC.
    Message was edited by: scoobiesnacks

    I've tried this method with my ipod now, had to leave it running overnight but I'm pleased to report this restore method works.
    The only dependencies are (1) you are running a machine with windows 7 (possibly Vista someone will need to check this) (2) You sync'd your ipod any time in the weeks running up to installing iOS4. Go for the most recent backup that the OS took as a shadow copy. Obviously the more recently you did the sync the better. In my case I am going back to March data it seems, though there seems to be another backup taken the day I installed the OS - just hope its not the dud one- I will try this one next to see if its got more data.
    This gets around the issue that itunes overwrites old backups. It may do but Windows (and also Macs I believe using the timemachine functionality) keep old copies of the backup files

  • CS3 - encode options for mobile phone device - Pantech Laser

    I got this to work once, but since lost the preset. The phone format is MP4. I started with H.264, and used MP4 with multiplexor IPOD, which at least displayed something on the phone, but the frame rate was very slow. The short clip I did before seems to be working, but I can't figure out what I did differently before.

    Just needed to change one more setting, Profile needed to be set to Baseline (as opposed to Main or High) to get it to work. The help file doesn't have any documentation on what this does.

  • X200T mobile broadband setting for Three network

    Hello all
    I have recently downgraded my laptop (X200T) from Vista to XP, and overall I am very happy with the good old XP.
    However, I am having a trouble with the mobile broadband. 
    I have got a SIM card for mobile broadband from Three network, and have been using it without any problems in my previous OS: Vista Business. However, since I downgraded my laptop to XP, I have not been able to use it through ThinkVantage Access Manager. I have tried to resolve this problem by editing WAN settings in the programme, but failed. 
    Has anyone else experienced and fixed the same problem? I would very much appreciate if you could share the solution with me. 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi. Welcome to the forums.
    I assume you are referring to sending "three" emails via BTYahoo! ?
    What error message are you receiving when trying to send ? Typically ISPs (probably as well as mobile type companies) prevent non connected users from using their mail servers. So in order to send "three" emails you need to go through address verification using your BTinternet email address. See my shortcuts, link below, option 0e

    Get a cellphone with the capability to act as a Bluetooth modem. Then you can connect from your iBook to your cellphone with Bluetooth and then from the cellphone to the cellular data network.
