anyone had this ADSL problem?? (1 Viewer)

[SashatheMan]

i wanted to connect to TPG adsl. and i requested them to conenct me. today i got a letter saying

"we regret to inform you that you are unable to proceed with your ADSL application.
.
.
.
Invalid or inactive service number could be due to any of the following reasons:

1. Non Tesltra Network - ADSL can not run over Optus Network.
..."

i am with Optus now, so that means i cant connect to TPG, whcih sucks alot i was looking farword to their plan.

would that be a problem with all other ADSL providers? that they cant give me ADSL due to be being with OPTUS?

or is it just TPG who cant do that.



btw Optus plans are so shit i just had a look. three times as slow , 20 dollars more a month and less GIg for unlimited. fucking gay piece of shit

Well TPG probally has an agreement to use Telstra Infrastructure.

Depends on the agreements othe ISPs have with Optus/Telstra to use their infrastructure.

i bascially have this question.

any other ISP allow you to have ADSL if your within the optus network? apart from tPG which doesnt work for me

 

[absolution*]

get iprimus.

will it allow me to be with the optus network?

It's because most likely your Optus connection is running through optus cable lines, not the telstra copper lines required for ADSL. solution, go back to telstra or ditch tpg.

I wouldnt have a clue, but i would guess so. You might have to do some ringing around to confirm.
