Cheapest internet + landline?

[kennedia_nigricans]

we are with westnet and pay almost $80 per month.

we do 1 call or so per month on the landline, we have it just so we have a phone number.

is there a cheaper option?

no mobiles or fancy stuff involved.

Hey Joz.

It's a thing you plug into your computer port and a phone into that. Of course you need internet service and if it's anything like it is here, most just get a bundled service. Soon I'll be signing up for a service, just under $100 a month...unlimited phone, high speen internet, and cable TV.

Close to a 1,000 channels of which I'd filter out 900 of them. 10 Premium channels (no commercials)

here's a youtube video. Looks like you don't need a computer anymore. (still need internet service?)

Costs vary for the same product depending on your location, so it's hard to compare.

excellent tip jim!

in the vid he said it can be used in other countries other then U.S

if its compatible to oz, i'll definitely look into it

he said you need at least a router that must mean a net connection, not sure

i.i net bought westnet about ?4 years ago.  I like them because their call centre is in Australia, and they are so helpful.
