Rozelle outage 2039 - foxtel cable

We've been without foxtel signal from 8th June - which is in the service status page.. annoyingly the scheduled completion date is always 3 days in advance. So we have been checking every 3 days since the 8th June The next scheduled date is 3rd July for completion Foxtel say its Telstra cable - Telstra say its a Foxtel issue... basically nobody knows what the issue is other than theres a fault - but the status just keeps breaching and being reset to 3 days later. Has anyone had a similar issue? Or is everyone in true spirit, just accepting the month long outage with no explanation given or reason given?

Hey RozelleRP,
I was going to look into this outage further for you, but I just checked and it looks like it has been cleared. Hopefully you're back online now

  • Bigpond cable and Foxtel service outage

    I am wondering if the estimated time for service to be restored is correct on the outage service page?
    Sometime this morning between 1am and 7am the cable service and foxtel failed again. As this had only just happened to me back on the 3rd June I immediately checked the service outage page and found nothing. So I went through the process this morning as I did a month ago of unplugging and disconnecting my modem before calling support.
    Nothing changed so I called a very helpful rep who took my details and as she also could not see any outages in my area arranged for a tech to visit my home. When the tech arrived only 4 hours after my call he said there had been a couple of calls made about my area thst morning and that it was likely a service outage somewhere in my area. He checked the line outside and found no issue so he escalated it to a service outage.
    I now see that it says "some" customers in my area may be affected and the estimated time of repair is by 6pm Wed.
    2 1/2 working days to restore service seems a long time to me but not knowing the complexities it may be a standard time. It wouldnt be so bad if only 4 weeks ago I hadnt been without service for a day. 3 days this time is annoying.

    Hello Daryl If it's any comfort, your experience is not unusual. I too  have had similar issues over the  years.I think Telstra or NBN are doing over-due maintenance, now that the HFC (Telstra/Foxtel) cable is going to be retained by NBN Hope this helps you RegardsProfessor PhoneI'm not a Telstra employee.  I have been a mobile subscriber since 1963.If my advice has been helpful, a Kudo  "tick"    would be most appreciated.If my advice has solved your problem, please also mark it as a Solution

  • New Airport Extreme802.11n &Very Odd Network&Computer Issues

    Hi,
    We Replaced a D-Link DGL4300 802.11G and a Airport Express M9470LL/A with the most current Airport Extreme Base Station 802.11N 2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz Dual Band and a Airport Express 802.11N (to use with a Shared USB HP1022 Laser Jet Printer. I have contacted Apple Tech Support once regarding setup and mentioned this other ? strange issue(s)
    We have broadband cable that goes to a Motorola SB5101(meets ISP specs) then Ethernet cable
    from Cable Modem to Wan Port on Airport Extreme. We have multiple computers all with wireless capability 1) Imac 800mhz 874 mb ram 802.11bAirport Card 2) eMac 1.0 Ghz 1gb ram Airport Extreme 802.11bWireless Card
    3) eMac 1.25 Ghz 1.0gb ram and a Airport Extreme 802.11bWireless Card* all running OSX Panther 10.3.9 *and each with 802.11B wireless cards 4) Macbook Pro bought Dec 2009 running Snow Leopard 4gb ram and 250gb HDand 802.11n wireless card 5) HP Tower xw4550 running Win XP Pro SP3 4gb ram 500GB HD and a 802.11G wireless card 6) Dell Mini Net Book running Win XP Home SP3 1ghz 1gb ram 150 GB HD and a
    802.11n wireless card.
    At first tried setting up the Airport Extreme with the Dell Mini as it met specs and (as of Yesterday) the Mac Book Pro is with one of our children at college but was able to set up setting up the Airport Utility and Hardware for both Peripheral Devices with the Mac Book Pro.
    Then things got odd. All the computers were online (as well as two wireless "Live" capable gaming systems XBox360 and Sony PS3 , I did not check my eMac until the next day
    and when I woke it from sleep (or started it) I got "You need to restart your computer"
    ? Kernel Panic , I ran Disk Utility, Tech Tool Deluxe, Apple Hardware Test and even Applejack. no change and while permissions were repaired Tech Tool Deluxe and The Apple Hardware Test showed no faults with anything, Tried PRAM. restart etc, then we had the other eMac 1.0ghz which has been unused since the Mac Book Pro arrived as a gift, Plugged it in , started it up, and got online, no black screen, even checked and responded to email, then restarted the (2nd eMac 1.0ghz) and the "You need to restart your computer screen came up!) once seems oh maybe, possibly its crashed, or dying out
    but two side by side, No Way! , so we then isolated electrical outlets, to the extent with a 100 foot extension cord outside on our back breezeway, same thing. We even went and bought a new battery and tried it in both , no change, * Was able to shut off the airport card in safe mode, restarted and it functioned as a normal computer with airport extreme card off
    *same with the 1.0ghz emac airport card off and restart and functions as a computer but no online access. We then moved one close to the Airport Extreme and hooked up by ethernet and changed the settings and Bingo no Kernel Panic Like screen and can get online, tried the other same thing! So currently the two eMacs sit side by side and we bought a long ethernet cord and it works on the table where it originally was,
    I did mention this to the Apple Technician that called from Apple regarding a setup issue (as have 90 days telephone support) and he said *That there have been reports of where there are with a Guest Network (we had one set up and He had us remove it as He asked if we really needed it and I said no AND also with networks with computers with wireless cards 802.11b
    and 802.11g computers on a network with the802.11n computers and a 802.11n Airport Extreme, he could not explain it any further, he suggested a possible 3rd party software incompatibilty : recent download (but have not done any on the 1.25ghz eMac and the 1.0ghz has been shut
    off since Dec 2009. I am baffled , my Wife and I were seriously considering buying a new Imac to replace the 1.25ghz after the Black screen showed up, but when the other one did the same, and did the trouble shooting and then the ethernet connect we saved ourselves a lot of money (t would be nice to have a new Imac but $$ is not there)
    and in the past week now (could be our ISP) our Internet connection has dropped off 4 times usually for 30-45 minutes but Friday 8-20-10 it was over 3 hours (yet our Cable TV came in) I will contact our ISP who handles both the broadband about the outages
    and our cable TV has been fuzzy -grainy at times, I called Them Friday and their were no outages in our area (system wide) Now though (except with Win XP) that is our access to the Airport Extreme and Utility (it blinks orange off and on when the internet is down) the Airport Express has stayed green each time. I will contact Apple also as ?
    is it the Airport Extreme (but its intermittent) channels are set to automatically if thats helpful data rather than set to a specific channel, its fairly rural where we live
    I thought of buying Tiger but saw the extreme prices and I called Apple per a recent Apple Thread they did not have Tiger Retail(nor did I expect then to) but after discussing
    the Emacs they said why pay so much for Tiger (and a lot are used) they said and went over both eMacs specs and I checked in detail online and called them back as it was in a "card hold" and bought Leopard 10.5.6 (as min of 512 ram, DVD drive (have a combo -drive) and a Power PCG4 which both are and I am now getting unused (non System) data off the eMac and backing it up as well and its job will be to be able to access the Airport Utility (Apple OSX Leopard 10.5.6 was $129.00 plus tax free shipping and it arrived yesterday so if settings need changed can do that (with Win XP the Airport Utility
    was so different and after about 4 hours and no progress I stopped and switched to he Laptop the next day!
    Has anyone experienced anything like this, I read up on both peripherals before buying and called as well to the Apple Online Store to make sure we could 1) set it up and 2) all computers specs were met to be able to a)use the network for online use and b)as well as shared printing from any and all computers and they do meet the specifications
    * one last item , my Wife's Imac is also on via Ethernet, It asked for a WEP password and that was not a option in the Airport Utility set up ,only WPA-WPA2 Personal password-Security configuration
    so She is not on wirelessly (though I know She has been as in the past, Her Imac was on a desk in the foyer ) That may have been with the 802.11b Apple Airport white dome and not the D-Link 802.11G router of which we had a lot of configuration issues
    *I could be wrong and will read up on her specs via the Mac Tracker application or online
    Many Thanks, Its so odd I did not want to leave out data etc but its a *long post and I apologize for that, I hope some one can send some light on this. On a positive avoided buying a new computer!
    but makes no sense (at least to us)!

I configured the new AirPort Extreme Base Station N last week using the MacBook Pro and the PowerBook can no longer operate with AirPort on (Restart Computer message). A rep at the Genius Bar indicated that WPA2 encryption might interfere with the G4?? He recommended setting up WEP encryption, this is no longer an option using the AirPort setup assistant.
    It would be very helpful to know how this original post was resolved. The G4 SHOULD be able to work with the AirPort Extreme 802.11n in theory, right??

  • -8 error

    I recently experienced a brief power outage and reset cable modem and router according to Comcast directions on the phone. I can no longer ichat (Mac) audio or video while going through the router. We've checked all the prot settings etc, and upgraded the firmware for the WRT54G. Can anyone help? I'm getting a -8 error when I attempt to A/V chat.

    well...i believe you need to forward the ports used by IChat...as you have reset the router , that must have wiped off those settings ... 

  • T Box: help with coaxial vs threaded wall socket issue

    Hi there! Hope someone out there can help me or point me in the right direction! I purchased a T Box Entertainer Bundle for my new rental residence, and after moving in yesterday I received my T Box today. All excited about plugging in the T Box and catching up on some viewing from the past few days, but it seems that while my new place has a TV connection, it is not the standard coaxial type! Arrrggghhhh! There is the usual phone connection attached to the wall, and beneath that a wall plate branded with Telstra (upside down!) and instead of the usual coaxial connection there is a threaded socket with a small female pin port. Just to satisfy my own curiosity I did try and plug the coaxial cable which came with the T Box to the socket, but obviously it doesn't fit either with male or female connections. A bit of slow online searching later (I also don't have my internet or landline connected as yet, and am in a mobile blackspot to compound the problem) and I am pretty sure what I have in the wall is actually a cable or Foxtel connection. From what I've read, if I get an adapter I will still need to get the whole thing rewired to an antenna...is this correct? Or is it possible that as the T Box has Foxtel anyway that either an adapter or a different cable would work?Or is this something that the tech can do when they come out to connect my landline and ADSL2+? Fingers crossed there is a reasonable solution to this as with being in a rental my options are limited!Many thanks in advance to you all.

    That wall plate is for Foxtel – not FTA. You will not be able to get BigPond cable in that complex. DIY I would look at smaller caravan type antenna (window/balcony) and some cable. Not long ago ALDI were selling “active” indoor antennas for about $30-40 bucks, if you can get one and no-go just return.Thanks Alan...but if that is the case, why doesn't Foxtel have any history over the past 6 years of anyone ever having Foxtel in this unit? The wall plate is not Foxtel branded, but Telstra branded. The complex is probably 50 years old, but the reno is a lot more recent - say, a couple of years maximum. Also, Foxtel are telling me that only a couple of people in the last 6 years have ever had Foxtel anywhere in the entire 40-odd apartment complex which is over two separate buildings...why would there be backboned Foxtel cable if no one is using it? Foxtel use Telstra cable to deliver their content - I get that. But if practically no one is using the cable for Foxtel - what ARE they using it for? It doesn't seem to be broadband as I was told only ADSL2+ is available to me...
    There are no visible external antennas, and if all the units have been cabled, why would this one be different? I find it difficult to believe that all the residents are having to rely on rabbit-ears or window antennas simply to get FTA!There are a lot of large metal structures around this area, as well as other frequency-interference objects,so I am surmising that this would be the reason the building has been backboned cabled. But hey - just guessing here... So really - who can I ask about what is actually connected to this address? Foxtel say it's not them and tell me to ask Telstra, Telstra SHOP staff (not the good folk here) are telling me they cant help me in person and I have to call customer service from home,  I don't have a landline or my ADSL connected yet so can only use my mobile for which I have limited service while I wait for the delivery of a 3G home booster thingy. Can anyone tell me to which Telstra department I should be directing my enquiry to?At the moment I have now useless T-Box sitting here begging to be used, which I purchased in good faith on the advice I received from a Telstra provider that I have the necessary and correct connections for it to work! Seeing as they appeared to have access to the information required to check on the service availability to this address and specifically this apartment - who do I need to contact to get more information?At the very least, put me out of my misery - if I have to install an antenna, so be it, but I need to be sure this is the only option available to me before I go through the process of getting landlord, body corporate, aand whoeverelse persmission, not to mention the considerable expense! Please - someone, anyone at Telstra - tell me who I need to contact, to find out once and for all, with absolute certainty what this connection is for!  Sorry if I sound desperate...everyone has been very helpful here so far, but I'm going crazy trying to figure this out!

  • Cable Outage Waverley NSW

    Cable internet has been out in Waverley (or at least part of it) for 7 days now. The Telstra status page indicates that it was fixed last night, but my modem is still flashing. I have called Telstra and they now tell me they are unware of any outage in the area and therefore can't help. What is going on?

    At this time, there are no outages listed for Waverley NSW.
    Make sure that you contact Tech Support on 133 933 so that this can be reportedand investigated as an individual fault.
    If a pattern forms from a number of customers reporting similar issues then that would trigger a larger network investigation.

  • Can power outages affect the IPod 5 cable cord and how it charges my IPod?

    I have an IPod 5, i ordered it off of Amazon. Recently we have had two lightning storms that have knocked out the power in my house. My Ipod was not plugged in, i dont believe, at the time but my Ipod cable charger was. After the storm my ipod stopped charging. I could only charge it in certain positions and after a couple of days my charger just wouldnt work. What is the cause of this? Do i need to replace my IPod or just get a new charger? I see nothing wrong in the IPod itself so im guessing its the charger? Also, i cant try out a different charger because i do not have another one. Thank you for answering!

    Also, when i try to plug it into a computer it shows an error and says something along the lines of "Power supply has exceeded" ??

  • Cable out now for 48 hours and they say it's due to an outage

    My cable has been down now for 48 hours.  I want to know when it is going to be fixed.  This is no way to treat your customers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Did you call Customer Service to find out what is going on?  This is primarily a customer-to-customer help forum, so we have no way of knowing what is going on with your service.

  • Foxtel and Cable Broadband

    I've switch from ADSL2+ from TPG (where I was getting maximum downloads of 1.5MBPS) to Cable with Telstra.  I was attracted by the lure of "30MBPS" speeds.The sales agent on the phone assured me I would get 30MBPS (anything over 20 would have been fine actually) and said that TPG shape their ADSL which is why my speed was so slow previously.  "Telstra give you the full speed". Since getting cable installed I have speeds of 1 - 2.2MBPS as a maximum.  Whilst I run a speedtest I get 30MBPS (a simple ping), however downloading a file from any reputable (Apple etc) and not so reputable website is just as slow as I had before. I've had 2 technicians out that confirm all settings, cabling etc are fine and the Telstra call centre and they tell me the problem lies with the website I am downloading from.  Whilst that may be a consideration to have such a gap in speed is incredible especially considering my ADSL2+ was similar. I don't feel like I'm getting value for money as now I'm paying $20 more per month and on a limited 200G plan (TPG was unlimited). Anyone else had the same issues with Cable? Is there a solution?

    It doesn't always...
    the actual download speeds are dependant on many factors, for some servers have a cap on the speed you can download them from (either purposely put in place, limited technology or bandwidth sharing when large number of users are online)...
    so as an example, you download a file from Apple as you mentioned,
    If their server has a cap at say 2 megabytes per second, once you have a connection speed over 16Mbps (roughly) it isn't going to help much since the server you are downloading from isn't capable of higher or is limited to only that speed...
    The faster the connection, the faster in theory you can download, however you can only obtain it as fast as the server is providing it... so the 100/2Mbps speedboost, will again increase your speed, NBN will provide about the same speed, but neither would make a huge difference if you are trying to get files from a server which is limited...
    When actually testing download speeds it is very hard because there are so many things which come into play, the path that is taken, the servers in the middle, the main server you are trying to reach...
    What the speedtest does is grabs a file from a local server, which means the information has less distance, less middle men and as such is faster...

  • Cable outage

    On june 26th we were without cable, phone or internet for hours, why are we not getting some type of credit on our bill for those hours when we had no services?

    Comcast does not offer automatic credits for service interuptions. You can call and fight for it, but it is usually not worth the time or effort.

  • Cable box takes days to reload after outage

    Whenever the cable is interrupted, the cable box takes days to reload all the channels. 

    It's the way the older iGuide works. There is a slow feed sent that the box has to listen to and pick up. That feed also contains all sorts of other data (time, channel lineup, OnDemand control, etc...) You should get near-term (6-8 hours) within an hour or two. It can take a few days for the full 8-10 days (used to go to 14+) to load. The guide data is not sent 'ondemand' but is simply sent out and all boxes litsen in and pick up what they need. If the box gets busy doing something else and misses a piece of info, it has to wait for it to come back around. The full data doesn't come out that fast and there is only time to send it once or twice a day. That's why it takes several cycles to pick it all up. The newer X1 boxes use full internal cable modems and are more cloud-based, so don't need to sit and wait for data.

  • Cable broadband outage in Ashgrove brisbane - 2.5 days so far

    Hi everyone, I have had no broadband since 9am Tuesday 28 July.  After several calls and chats with Telstra it seems to be a known issue affecting the area, but is not showing on the service status page.   Just sharing in case anyone is searching on this. 

    Thank you....!!

  • Brief random network outages

    Hi
    We have a networking issue that I hope someone may be able to help me with.
    We run a Windows domain - single domain, single subnet. Three domain controllers: Windows 2012 R2 Standard, Windows 2008 Standard (32bit) and Windows Server 2003 Standard. The Win 2008 DC holds all the FSMO roles. DNS is setup on the 2008 and 2012 DC's
    with the 2008 DC having a secondary DNS server installation. DHCP is setup on the 2008 DC. The 2003 server only functions as a DC - no roles apart from that are installed and it will be demoted very soon.
    Two member servers: Windows Storage Server 2008 (64bit) and Windows 2012 Standard. The Storage server hosts 99% of our data with the other 1% being on the 2008 DC. Two email server software installations (not Exchange) - one on the storage server and one
    on the 2012 R2 member server. NPS Routing and Remote Access is configured on the 2012 member server to handle VPN connections.
    35 client PC's: 34 run Windows 7 and one runs Vista.
    We have two Draytek routers on the network - one acts as the gateway to the Internet and the other provides wireless coverage. There are two networked printers - a Ricoh MFD 'workgroup' printer and a small mono Brother.
    Network shares are accessed via DFS. The Servers, the Ricoh printer and routers have static IP's, most of the clients and the Brother printer use DHCP.
    All cables terminate at one of two patch panels which then feed to one or more switches. Small desktop switches are used to expand the network where needed. The network is divided into two segments, hence two patch panels, but both run under the same 192.168.0.xxx/255.255.255.0
    subnet.
    Before we upgraded all our computers to Windows 7 the network was fine. The present network was built using CAT5 cabling in 2004 (we'd used BNC before that). We rarely had any network issues and when we did it would affect all clients. When
    I first introduced Windows 7 it was on three PC's and one or more of them would randomly have problems accessing the network and Internet.
    When I upgraded all our machines to Windows 7 we are seeing one or more machines experiencing network problems most days.
    What happens is the (any) computer will suddenly stop - Applications accessing files across the network e.g. email and Access will hang and report as (not responding) and the 'busy' cursor appears. Try and save an office document and the busy cursor appears
    and the application hangs. The Start menu is not accessible - for example I always have my Taskbar hidden and when this happens on my machine moving the mouse to the bottom of the screen does nothing, the Taskbar stays hidden. Sometimes, the Taskbar may
    appear, but nothing happens when the Start button is clicked. When trying to access shared folders via Computer the green bar slowly moves through the Address Bar and after a while it reports the share is not accessible. The affected computers are also unable
    to open any web pages.
    The hang will last for anything from 20 secs to a minute or more after which the computer will continue operating normally. On very rare ocassions the the computer will not recover after 10mins or more and I have to force a shutdown but I assume this is
    not directly related to the issues I am seeing.
    The short outages are completely random and leave no trace of a problem in the System or Application Logs. When a machine does not recover (which is very rare) the System Log reports that a DNS server could not be reached.
    This will happen on a single PC and others will be fine. But, it may affect several PC's over the course of a day.
    When the outage happens I can Winkey+R, open cmd.exe and successfully ping the DNS servers by IP and name.
    All the systems are up to date. I ensure that Windows Updates are installed on the Servers when they are released and the clients are updated the next day via WSUS.
    I am pretty sure that this is also affecting Active Directory. I am seeing transient errors on the Domain Controllers where, for example, a Global Catalog can not be contacted. Both DC's are GC's and when I run nltest to test the connection to a GC within
    30 minutes of the error being reported the test passes. I assume the servers are also experiencing these random outages.
    The problem I have is that because they are random and because, on the clients at least, no errors are logged I cannot reproduce the problem and have no idea what may be causing the issue.
    The problem is not a general network issue as it randomly affects one client at a time - if was a general network problem I would expect all the clients to lose connectivity.
    Has anyone else seen a similar issue and know what the cause was, please?
    Thanks

    how old is the server?
    How old is your network switches?
    Any computer or server with NIC or network switches going south, may cause the intermittent issue.
    They may flood the network with packets thus hang the system.

  • What can happen to an intel-based iMac when a power outage occurs while it is on and I unplug it to avoid a surge when power comes back?

    The power went out today, while I was using my intel-based iMac (2008) and I rushed to unplug the power from the wall, before the poser could surge back on. Did I do damage?
    I have a surge protector that it was plugged into, but I thought just to be safe I should unplug!
    Thanks, Group!

    Art a surge protector (a good one) is designed to provide contant power to the devices that are plugged into it. This is good in the event of a surge of power up or down however in the event of a complete power outage they're of no value.
    A UPS (Uninteruptable Power Supply) is just that, it has surge protection like a surge suppresor however it also has a battery integrated into it. The battery is designed to provide enough power for a user to do an orderly shutdown. In addition most UPS's can also plug into your iMac via a USB cable. Then you can set energy saver preferences that you cannot see now. For example you can set how long the computer should run in the event of power going off. You can also set if you want the computer to reboot or not when the power comes back on etc. For about $100 you can get a fine UPS that will add an additional layer of protection for your computer and give you extra peace of mind.
