We are making progress down here in the boonies. When we first moved here there was no phone signal at all. Now we get 4G. Internet was 512Kb dial up and copper cable. Then it was upgraded to Broadband at 12Mb/s so the new one is 8 times faster. I will have to make another video and see how quickly it goes to YTube...Really should rename this post
My National Broadband Network connection is supposed to be fibre using the old Foxtel cable. I didn't realise Foxtel had sold their cable until they told me they were changing to a new system (dish etcetera) so I cancelled saving another A$60 a month. Lots on free to air TV for me
The NBN connection is very cheap- A$40 per month on an old folks special- do not know how fast etcetera but it does all I want.
I now have redundant copper wire from the old phone land line (saved A$70 a month) and the Foxtel fibre cable which join the old lead and galvanised pipe for the original gas lighting in the roof (I hasten to add a little before my time).
Spending all the savings on antiques
