I live in a place that used to be a business, and a whole bunch of phone lines have been cut. I've been trying to get the National Broadband Network connected but they can't find where the phone line connects to my place.

Turns out that you can just get a wireless 5G modem that doesn't need any wires. I'm getting that. I live right next to the 5G tower anyway.

To me anything wireless means intermittent disconnections


mixed opinion for me. it's fine if it's reliable around area. sometimes it's not (suffered that once when i lived in the boonies).

The thing is, wired connections drop around here whenever it rains. Issues with the copper wiring our internet uses - we were gonna get fibreoptic internet nationwide, but the conservatives stripped it down to copper for being "too expensive" before spending $9 billion on fighter jets that didn't work and to go on holiday while the country burned.

Remember when people were burning down 5G towers because they thought it caused COVID?
