For 24 years, living on our cattle farm in rural Victoria meant a constant struggle with internet access.

Telstra Black Spot, thanks to the valleys around us, has turned simple tasks like making a call or checking email into frustrating ordeals.

We endured years of unreliable landlines – especially bad in winter with waterlogged pits—then slow ADSL, and finally, the limitations of satellite internet.

So grab a cuppa and listen to our journey. I hope it inspires you not to give up and to seek solace in a supportive group.
