Never thought I'd be saying that!

My internet access is via ADSL.......dependant on a phone line.

Dick head me managed to dislodge the phone wall socket while moving a table.  Blue wire is loose in wall socket.  No www.  So,using mobile call Telstra to get help.  Asian female answered and I could actually understand her.  She put me through to 'faults' and Daniel, an Aussie, answered.  Bribed him with money and a VB to get a repair man here asap, and he did that, but asap means tomorrow afternoon.

So, how...do I hear you ask.....is Aussie able to be on the www?  Far king good question.

Daniel:  What sort of mobile you got.
Me:  iPhone 6.
Daniel:  Pull blue cord out of the back of the computer.  Stick iphone charger into a USB on the computer.  Stick other end into iPhone.  Go to settings....hit Hot Spot and turn it on.  Wait for computer to talk to phone.
Me:  Done *waiting for voodoo.*

Bingo.....have www on the computer via the far king phone!

'Onya Daniel!

Becoming quite the www guru  :)

You may find this useful Aussie, re your pending FTTN migration:

Both offer unlimited downloads. Both are congested because of that.
