Hey all,

I'm considering a change from my current ISP to Voda to take advantage of the Cable network that is allegedly in my area.
Upon making my phone call which had a pretty quick response during the day, I'm told both yes, I can, and no, I can't, and also told that I can but it'd be complex.

I'm really looking for some solid answers as to the availability of service in my area, which I could only imagine could be answered by a staffer is they're around? (hint hint :) ) 

Also, can anyone speak to the install process with Downer EDI for a underground Telstra cable? I'm very excited about the idea of better speeds, but the fact that I'm in a rental could seriously hold things up, particularly if there's trenching involved.

Cheers for any feedback you guys have in advance!

The only 100% answer to if you can get cable services is for Vodafone to send a Downer Tech out.

No one over the phone will be able to tell you if your install will be 'complex' without visiting the site. 


Best option is to begin the sign up process and let VF send someone out for the install. Worst case you can't connect and it's cancled
