Manufacturer: NetComm,Telstra
Question:
Can I fit an external antenna to the Tlstra turbo 7 to enable use in areas where the normal network signal is weak.
Caravanners. Dont believe the hype about travelling and connecting to the Next G network. Its pretty much hit and miss. Even if your Telstra phone works the modem doesn't
The good: When it works its good and fairly fast even in rural areas.
The bad: Fussy about antenna connections so once you get it working don't detach the antennas when you travel.
Modest performance, but reasonably priced, great features and simple to set up.
RRP: AU$299.00

Good excuse for telstra not to bother installing more ADSL ports at the local exchange but it doesn't allow VOIP
The good: the easiest setup I have ever seen no wires...wife loves that
The bad: drop outs/line congestion COST of wireless internet plans is ridiculous but you expect that from Telstra
