yht on $2 for 2 Months nbn Home Internet Plans 50/20, 100/20 or 250/25 (New Customers Only, From $95/Month Thereafter) @ Telstra

Nope - wifi can work on airplane mode. It’s how you can use wifi on a plane

Tonnes of good options to use this offer in Brisbane. Great work Amex.

kipps commented on 10% off Sitewide + Surcharge @ SE (Gigabyte Radeon RX 6900 XT GAMING OC 16GB GDDR6 RGB LED Graphics Card $1349.10 Del)
$699 for the Unifi Dream Machine Pro is not competitive, even if 10% is taken off this price.

Thanks OP!

Can second this. It’s way too slow on W11 if the CPU is unsupported. Don’t bother.

The break costs might be $nil in which case you’re free to move. People who fixed at below 2.5% likely have low or no break cost.
