Thread: Lenkos getting phat pipes

Woohooo !!

Just ordered my ADSL.
Its a baby 512/128 account with a 20g cap on it.
Its all i need for my MMO's and if i deem it necessary i will upgrade at a later date.
$50 a month is affordable and it gives me back my addiction :p

They say a 3 week provisioning time, but i hope its faster :p

Bout ****en time.

I just helped a mate sign up and he was up and running in about a week
the 3 weeks stuff is just to be on the safe side, but usualy happens a lot faster

Awesome mate, be great to have you back online

I dont know if you guys have ever had to go with practically no internet for an extended period of time before, but its so hard

I get home and sit at my puter, then realise that theres nothing to do on it.
Its basically a very expensive Stereo at the moment. I just use it to play mp3's and thats about it

Cant wait to get some phat data coming in so i can play games again hehe.

I just hope that my exchange/line is suitable/available for ADSL. Caus when they say you can get adsl, it doesnt mean that you can ACTUALLY get it.
Fingers crossed

Not happy Jan.

Carrier for ADSL Port Telstra



*Transposition (Alternate Path Check) occurs if your line is on a RIM or Pair Gain System. A search is done to find a spare copper run or a way around the technology blocker. Transposition typically adds about 5 to 6 weeks to provisioning time, as it involves manual search and survey steps by Telstra. Success rates are entirely dependant on your exchange and can vary greatly.

, that sux man. Just pray that there is some spare copper in your area

Yeh i am mate, trust me

Hahaha, Australia's telco network infrastructure ftw.

On a shitty island off the Thailand coast, where there is barely any concrete roads, houses are made with whatever trees they can cut down, and a small population, there are internet cafe's advertising high speed adsl(ie it's available). In Australia we can not provision this service to all residents in our capital cities.
