rather than actually phoning Telstra, try their on-line 24/7 service. This works even if your 'net service is down (but may not have helped Judy if it was a router or modem problem), is free, no techo stuff, one question, one answer at a time and the BEST thing is, you don't wait for hours to speak to someone as you do when phoning. Usual wait time is about 2-5 mins. Just a pity Telstra is going to get rid of 800+ call centre workers and farm some of it off to the Asians - I HATE talking to overseas call centres as our Banks have mostly done. If you don't ask a "pre-programmed" question they have been taught to understand - its they don't have a clue what youre saying.
Whats the State and Federal Govts (and the Unions) doing to stop this - 1000's of call centre staff have been sacked in the past 2 years from our big AUSTRALIAN (haha) companies. All to increase the dividends to elderly and corporate shareholders and increase the salary packages of the company bosses

Save time ::::In Windows XP right click on I-net icon in task bar click " repair connection".
Windows will reset and repair.
In Windows 7 Internet Options back up and restore. make a back up.
In Windows 8 the one I do not want to know, the wife owns one.
Used to have Telstra but we had a bad run, with ISP settings and off the net every two weeks.
It got so bad they gave us three months free air space.
Good luck.
Cheers.
