Mobile Broadband - why is there a 25GB limit for business? I need more!!!

Hi Telstra.I am a business owner in Western NSW.I can not get adsl or nbn where I am so I am stuck with the mobile broadband as the only solution.Pity that the prices are ludicrous and the plan limits are completely unreasonable. I understand that alot of people only use mobile bb when they are out of the office or travelling and dont need much capacity, but we use mobile broadband to run our entire company because your current infrastructure does not support any other internet access. With most business transactions and accounting being cloud & email based now, our dependance on the internet is everything. When is Telstra going to come into the modern age and learn to be flexible to tailor plans to suit individual cases and not charge the earth for it??? Cheers.Mick

While I agree about the limitations, they do have reasons to limit the access to data over the mobile network... Data over the mobile network does cost more, because it requires more investment and is much more limited in capability than the fixed network. With the new 4G and 4GX capabilities, a lot of towers would be able to handle increased data allowances on Mobile data, in the same way that the new plans provide the higher allowance for Mobile Phone plans, however I highly doubt that it will be significantly cheaper if they do change the plans... more likely the prices will be pretty much the same but with different allowances or something... I know one of the moderators did hint at new plans being in the pipeline, at least for residential customers, and if they increase those, no doubt the business ones will also increase... however, when and what actually is going to change is yet to be seen. But as PP has said, the erratic nature of the NBN roll out is the greatest enemy of private investment...

  • Why is there a service fee for repairs n

    This will be my 3rd RMA in my short period of owning a Zen Micro. When I was re emailed by creative, they said I needed to pay $25 for a service fee.
    Why is there a service fee for repairs now for common problems such as the infamous earphone jack?

    The tariff guide still says
    Installation, Activation & Equipment Charges Activation Fee
    All new BT TV customers will be charged a £35 activation fee.
    Any existing BT TV customers taking a new set top box will also be charged a £35 activation fee.
    Optional Engineer Install (Box service only) The charge for the engineer install option is £35. Optional Broadband Extenders (Box service only)
    The charge for one set of optional Broadband Extenders is £35
    So if you can't get the precise order you want online why not phone the BT customer options team and place your order that way.

  • Is there a character limit for a field in CrystalReports?

    Is there a character limit for a field in CrystalReports?
    Hello,
    I'm trying to display a long text (+100.000 characters) stored in a MySql database in CrystalReports but CR is not showing the complete text. Is this because there is a length limit for fields in CR?
    Thanks,
    Eddy G.

    This is not a great answer, but you can base your report on a SQL Command, then use something like this for the command(MS SQL):
    select
      case when length(table.field) > 65535
          then substring(table.field,1,65535)
          else table.field end as field_part1,
      case when length(table.field) > 65536+65535
          then substring(table.field,65536, 65535)
          when length(table.field) between 65536 and 65536+65535
          then substring(table.field,65536, length(table.field)-65535)
          else '' end as field_part2
    from table...
    Then in the report, display both fields where you want the BLOB data.

  • HT201250 Is there a size limit for an external drive to be used with time machine?

    I have an iMac with a 2TB drive. I have a 2TB WD drive used for Time Machine that is full. I would like to go to the bigest WD (type) external drive that will work with Time Machine. Is there a TB limit for TM in OS X Lion?

    Welcome .  I have also used a 2TB WD My Book ext HDD for Time Machine backups for the past year and have had no problems.  They seem to get a  very bad wrap.  Perhaps we are a few of the lucky ones.  The two brands recommended by macjack are very, very good brands.

  • Is there a size limit for uploading files?

    is there a size limit for uploading files?

    You have max 20GB storage.
    Upload anything you want up to that limit - be it one file or many.
    The only limit after that is the speed of your internet connection since extremely large files can take hours to upload.

  • Is there a time limit for how long a free form can be used/accessed?

    Is there a time limit for how long a free form that is created can be used/accessed, or is it soely dependent upon when the 50 respondent max has been reached?  I am creating a form now, that will likely be distributed in early January, and I want it to be accessible through the end of June, 2013.  (I am simply using the option to create a single form for free- not the 30-day trial). 

    There is no time limit. The limit is the 50 responses.

  • Aperture 3 update.  Why is there still no eraser for the retouch tool?

    Perhaps I'm missing something, but: Why is there still no eraser for the retouch tool?
    I realize you can delete retouch strokes, but they are in linear order so you often have to delete useful ones to go far enough back to get the one that you've decided no longer works.
    I would rather have the ability to erase strokes back to the original image, much like the way the History Brush works in Photoshop, and indeed the eraser tool works in many other Aperture bricks.
    Example, I retouch an eye, and then move on to retouch an ear.  Then I decide I don't like the eye brush strokes.  In order to remove one stroke on the eye retouch, I have to delete all the successful brush strokes I've made to the ear (i.e. those that came after the stroke I wish to remove from the eye).  This is needlessly complicated and inefficient.
    Many of other bricks in Aperture have an eraser tool to selectively remove brushstrokes.  Why not the retouch tool?
    Also, many other bricks in Aperture allow for stacking or layering bricks of the same adjustment with different brush choices.  Why not the retouch tool?
    Am I missing something?

    We are just users here.  Feature Enhancement requests need to be made via Apple's official approved channel.  You can get there from within Aperture by clicking "Aperture➞Provide Aperture Feedback".
    Retouching (and cloning) involves not just applying a transformation to the selected pixels, but basing that transformation on _other, non-contiguous_ pixels sampled from the image.  This leads me to think that there may be intractable technical problems setting up the kind of workflow you propose.
