AFL On-Demand match replays


If you like the footy but can't afford or not prepared (like me) to pay for a rip-off Foxtel or Kayo subscription then the AFL On-Demand match replays might be of interest to you.

Telstra TV - Enhanced wi-fi remote control

Back in Feb 2019 I got the Telstra TV2 box and was happy with the purchase. However, one thing really annoyed me - no volume control - so I also had to keep the Panasonic HTS remote on my lap and juggle the two remotes.

Telstra offer - Upgrade to Superfast Internet

Telstra offer - Upgrade to Superfast Internet Add-On at no extra cost

Hi Alan,

We're excited to let you know that for a limited time we've upgraded your internet speed by giving you the Superfast Internet Add-On to your Premium Internet Plan at no additional cost (usually $30 per month) for the next 6 months.

The Superfast Internet Add-On has the potential to more than double the download speeds of your current plan's NBN Premium Evening Speed - the Superfast Internet Add-On has typical download speeds of 230Mbps (7-11pm).

Happy with 100/40 so will stay with that.

Note: The upload speed is normally above 30Mbps.

Android TV and Kodi

Tonight's movie recommendation from a friend is to watch Bad Education (Hugh Jackman) on Foxtel Movies. I have Foxtel Now but not the movies but that's not a problem we just used the Kodi Tempest add-on to download the movie in a few minutes.
