| 568279 | 2007-07-12 01:30:00 | We are due to get telstraclears internet phone and tv installed tomorrow,But i would like to hear from anybody as to what people think of the tv service is it as clear as sky is via satellite or is it a bit grainy i have heard that its not that great from some guys at work but id like to hear it from some fairly technical knowledgeable people on here for a more defined honest answer. | Hitech (9024) | ||
| 568280 | 2007-07-12 03:54:00 | is it as clear as skyI don't know about Telstra Clear, but I don't think you could call the Sky picture clear, even on a small 29-inch CRT you can see compression and it looks worse on a 40-inch plus LCD/plasma (btw I don't have Sky myself, just observations from other people's setups). | maccrazy (6741) | ||

My biggest gripe is the bloody on screen display/channel guide has a habit of freezing up not allowing you to change channels. Which is a pain when channel surfing:badpc: |

| 568282 | 2007-07-12 05:26:00 | Does the picture appear grainy to you at all and does it flicker or shimmer very often. Sorry for all the questions. | Hitech (9024) | ||
| 568283 | 2007-07-12 06:34:00 | I read on the telstraclear website that you are supposed to get your modem a few days before connection, but we were told by the rep that came round that all this was done on the day can somone put this issue straight please, cause as yet we do not have our cable modem or have they changed the policy again. | Hitech (9024) | ||
| 568284 | 2007-07-12 06:39:00 | I'm no expert, but I reckon the picture with cable is MUCH better than Sky satellite that we had before. No defects at all on our old 29" CRT. But I mostly only watch news and sport. The EPG function does its scone from time to time and you have to turn off both the decoder and the modem, leave for 30 s, then turn the modem then the decoder box on and wait for it to boot up. But the best thing is cable internet. It's fast enough that I don't really notice it taking any time at all. Downloading or uploading. |

| 568285 | 2007-07-12 07:01:00 | Did you get your modem delivered a few days before connection or did the guy bring it with him on the day. | Hitech (9024) | ||
| 568286 | 2007-07-12 09:32:00 | Can anyone else answer this please, Do you get a modem delivered by courier a few days before you get connected or have telstra stopped that now. | Hitech (9024) | ||
| 568287 | 2007-07-12 09:35:00 | Can anyone else answer this please, Do you get a modem delivered by courier a few days before you get connected or have telstra stopped that now. All done on the same day, well everybody I know has had done same day |

| 568288 | 2007-07-12 09:54:00 | Thanks for that Plod just shows telstraclears site needs updating as their site says you get your modem delivered so yet again they must have changed there policy and not bothered updating it so people know. | Hitech (9024) | ||
