iOS 17.3.1 My drop down in Safari for that website only displays 1924 to 1959, no later years!! Luckily I was born in 1954!!!!!!

This is not a XXX website!

Good suggestion, but yes I did with same problem. For example using Edge, and choosing the birthdate, the only years displayed in the…

When available I do yes, but often, example booking train tickets in developing countries, they only have websites, no apps. Try…

Yes, I have been checked several times that my batteries to not exceed 100Wh each, so expect it!!

You are right of course, but I do like the technical challenge and I learn something new and get a lot of satisfaction if I succeed. But I…

Won’t work as OPTUS say they do not support wifi calling over VPN (see above). Will have to try something smarter as suggested by FoxJump…

I have an eSIM, but they don’t allow phone calls as eSIMS are data only. Yes, I can use it for VOIP though, but it uses my data and VOIP…

Sorry for delay, just woke up. I’m in a time zone 12 hours different!! I get what you mean. Unfortunately, I didn’t enable remote…

Now THAT’S an interesting thought. I wonder if people more knowledgeable than I could comment. Seems definitely worth a try next time I…

I think that next time I travel OS, I will either port over to Telstra for while I’m away, or just buy a new Prepaid Telstra SIM and use…

maybe a very little known one that Optus have not a blacklist for????

UPDATE: I read the link that “jv” provided above and learnt two things: 1. Optus said it does not support VoWiFi over VPNs 2. Not all…

Understood, thanks!

Fair enough! I wonder if I can get around that restriction by using an obfuscated VPN? Unfortunately NordVPN does not offer an obfuscated…

How can Optus know I’m overseas? I’m using a VPN to Australia before making the call!!

Yes, but those are not good for calling normal phone numbers, eg 13xxxx, 1800xxxxx, 02xxxxxxx, 03xxxxx etc.

Ok, but how can it know I am overseas, because I am VPNing to Australia!!

Yes, data roaming OFF

Been trying for days to get this to work and it’s driving me crazy as it worked when I tested it in OZ before leaving! Are there any…

Thanks for your honest feedback!

Good point, but I wonder how one can try them out when as far as I know virtually non are connected to water in showrooms!!
