NBN CONNECTED

I have been connected and well within the time and date advised.

The internet went down for a few minutes, stopped and started a bit then came up on NBN. The phone took about an hour or so  before it started to work but it all works now. I unplugged the phone a couple of times but I think that if I had waited all I needed to do was unplug the cable from the phone outlet to the PSTN input on the modem.

It looks like I can get the top tier of 100 down 40 up. I will think about it and make up my mind whether to  upgrade.

In the meantime I am going to go mad downloading stuff.

Downloaded an iTunes HD movie. Before it took hours – now 20 minutes.

AND  XBox Live “Games with Gold” is next. I don’t like the games in the first half of March – BUT after 16th, I like “Plants Vs Zombies – Garden Warfare 2”.

I have only ever tried to download one game previously and it took 3 days (including pauses every time I wanted to use the internet) – BUT NOW  -WOW!

Next thing is to upgrade Netflix.
