Ah fair enough, thought you may have been near a tower being near Reynella.

Depends on what type of wireless you're thinking of?

Unfortunately not in the line of sight of any existing tower, but back when I inquired Nuskope was investigating putting up a tower that might have worked for me. As far as I know they cancelled that.

Otherwise I would actually give up on any connection relying on our rotten and hopeless copper.

Seriously, this is the pattern everytime it rains enough here: we get disconnected, followed by unstable connection for a couple of days – then even if our connection come back we get to play musical chairs as someone else calls support for being disconnected – a tech comes, chooses our pair as a spare for the neighbour who requested support, and then we get a brand new speed, which means usually awful, until I complain and continues the eternal circle by kicking someone else from their working pair.

Last week I had 3mbps DL, a miracle, now I have 1mbps (after spending the whole weekend with constant disconnections, couldn't even work for 2min on the ssh connection to work... Then on Monday a stable brand new awful speed welcomed me when back from work...). Now I only have 30h of constant download if I want to catch up with my download queue on Steam.

With that crap going on Nuskope wireless would still be way better than what awaits us with FTTN (hey, now the rain can flood the node in addition to the pits!)
