Oh Telstra

gibbsy81

So i wanted to change the dns servers on my Telstra T Gateway (free Telstra modem) a pretty basic task.

I look all through the modems configuration cant find it anywhere.

I then spend hours google searching trying to find out if it is possible i find out that it is posible via telnet i try the ways outlined they dont work.

So i call Telstra Technical support they say they aint trained to fix the issue so she says i can pay $120 for Telstra platinum.

So i agree to go through with it she puts me through to an Australian yay i don't have to speak to a overseas person.

So he asks what i would like and i say i would like to change the dns servers he says its not possible with the stranded modem Telstra went out of their way to remove it so i ask is it possible on the T Gateway Max (The $200 modem) he says yes it is he even admits is rediclious that Telstra do such a thing.

So he wipes the $120 fee off my account.

So my question to you is does your isp do anything like this.

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life

I'm with Telstra as well and I also have the T-Gateway. Sorry if a noob question but what advantages does changing the DNS servers do?

Basically speed in resolving domain names to ip addresses.

nope my ISP actually gave me a decent VDSL2 modem that it has USB host and it can connect pptp and route traffic over it. (i think it also supports some sort of load balancing too considering it has 2 wan inputs but not sure) and yes i can change the DNS in modem.

I can easily do it on my modem, i tend to do it when iinet is having issues with DNS, I think if you switch it too Internode DNS you will still get freezone

Of course you could do something silly like use your own gateway. I'm with spintel in regional australia. Yes my internet sucks, but at least I know it isn't my hardware.

Not here in the Netheralands.
But UPC en Ziggo are forging now together.

The prices went up about 1 to 3 euros per month more.

And the goverment here had the final verdict if they wanted to merge, so they just said yes, f*ck...

 

The Netherlands don't have bad ISP but were getting to be America-like I think....
 

So I'm going to build my own ISP!
With blackjack and hookers, ah screw the whole thing...

No real point to call them lately only when we have issues.

Dodo is very lucky :(

  • 1 month later...

I bought a Netgear D2600 and that works fine on my telstra plan, the only reason i got it were the 2 telstra branded ones that I had before died just out of warranty. that router allows me to change all the settings myself not some guy who doesn't know what he is doing in a call centre.

Why would u pay $200 for a telstra modem/router?

 

Just the convince of the tech support (that i have never had a problem with) + too lazy to research other options at the time

That's why I bought a Netgear D6300 Modem/Router. The isp bundled ones are overpriced and extremely crap.
