I've been here 1 year plus and i've already been assraped with police checks lol, i swear it's paranoia, but in some cases i believe it's very justified. But when it comes to internet, yeah, you generally have the right to be paranoid because under the idea of child protection, cops have a free reign on monitoring PC traffic.

Good with Bad i reckon . But on a nice note, if you ever wanted that dream house and that dream stake in Rio Tinto or BHP, now's the time to buy lol.
I didn't know the economy was so bad over there. The last time I asked some Aussie migrants, they were telling me just how inflated the property prices were.

BTW, I just heard from Max. He's still trying to get his Internet connection up. He's currently stuck using the campus connection which is heavily firewalled and restricted. I really pity him. Heh...

Yooo!

Yeah I'm still stuck here without my own internet connection. I'm using UniSA's connection right now which blocks almost everything and they charge $7 for 1GB of data transfer

I just applied for a phone line last week but still no news until now. It is still not confirmed that whether my place has ADSL or not because Mawson Lakes area is famous for not having ADSL available For some reason Telstra decided to wire most of the phone line here to RIM, which doesn't support ADSL. And I heard they call here technology park. Epic LMAO.

Oh and the most ridiculous thing is, I must apply for a phone line first before I can find out whether my place has ADSL or not.

Hey once you get your phone line, go to Whirlpool Broadband News for help with choosing an ISP, etc. Great resource

If you can get your neighbour's phone number you can put it in first and check if there's ADSL in your area

I think I will scare them if I suddenly go around asking for their number

My laptop managed to pick up quite a few wireless AP here so I think I should be able to get ADSL here.
