Lesley (Has Dragons at Home) Dewar (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western Australia@Telstra The address is checked, says there are no outages or problems here. But I did a speedtest on both the Samsung device and the Lenovo Thinkpad and they both failed. Did a ping test. That was successful. Ping 1.1.1.1 Trying a speedtest on the Lenovo now. After a minute no result.

Lesley Dewar Wealthy Woman (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western AustraliaAnd when you realise that @Telstra is flagging a legitimate number calling me from @GoDaddy in Australia as SPAM. NOT HAPPY JAN. I had phoned them to complain that they never left me a message, decided to look into it, and phoned them back to say it's all down to Telstra.

Lesley (Has Dragons at Home) Dewar (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western Australia@FoxesTrader @Telstra Thank you. I know they are unrelated because Telstra has a national problem with big pond and has had for a month.

Lesley (Has Dragons at Home) Dewar (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western Australia5 / timed out and I had to start again. 6. Telstra sent a message to my phone with the complaint number, and I have to install another app, which needs my Google password. It's lost and sends me a link to reset it, but to a bigpond account which I cannot access. It's crazy!!

Lesley Dewar Wealthy Woman (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western Australia@Telstra just had a look It was 25gb of bonus data. Oops. But I still have 60gb to go. I used heaps in February because I forgot to switch my Bluetooth off, and use the NBN. For about 10 days. Bad Lesley 👎 👃

Lesley (Has Dragons at Home) Dewar (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western Australia@thepainterflynn I know about hotspots. I have paid $70 pm for 3 months. I want my service. My notebook computer needs a massive update. I am not trashing my mobile account to do it. It's the principle of the matter. This issue is down to @Telstra .

Lesley Dewar Wealthy Woman (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western Australia@Telstra Hi Luci It's more that I keep getting notifications to top up my account, as I am running down the bonus data, when I still have 60gb to use up, in about 30 days It's distracting and a bit misleading actually. I am not sure if my plan rolls over my unused data or not.

Lesley (Has Dragons at Home) Dewar (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western Australia@Telstra Hi guys. I need some help. My off-line guys can't dial in to my notebook because my connection is so slow. Q? How do I find out if my plan has been "shaped" due to high data usage? Facebook, Netflix, YouTube? Or is it something else?

Lesley (Has Dragons at Home) Dewar (@LesleyDewarAU) reported from Busselton, Western Australia@Telstra Today I am trying to do my share trading on my Samsung tablet. Commsec. The internet is very very slow. Has dropped out a few times. Can't open or download a PDF. Very poor.

Jo Christiansen (@JoChristianse13) reported@Riogallica @Starlink We have @Starlink. Telstra lied to my husband about the download speed, by saying it was slow, then when I cancelled them & said that we were getting Starlink, another person actually tried to talk me into getting Starlink through Telstra.🙄 We went to Starlink’s Website & a local starlink Contractor installed it for us - $106.36 + GST

Ray (@rayethesis) reportedThis chart puts Starlink’s scale into perspective. At roughly $11.4B in annualized revenue, Starlink is already approaching the revenue scale of established telecom giants such as Singtel and sits in the same neighborhood as Telstra. That is remarkable considering Starlink is a relatively young satellite broadband network competing against companies that have spent decades building terrestrial infrastructure, spectrum portfolios, and massive subscriber bases. The important signal here is not just the absolute revenue, but how quickly Starlink has reached a level that takes traditional telecom companies decades to build. However, the comparison also exposes the problem. Telecom is a huge business, but it is not necessarily a high-growth business. Companies like China Mobile, Verizon, Deutsche Telekom, AT&T and NTT generate tens or even hundreds of billions in annual revenue, yet the market typically assigns them much lower growth expectations because connectivity eventually becomes a mature utility. Starlink has a better growth profile today because it is still penetrating underserved markets, adding capacity, expanding internationally, and converting new customers. But as the revenue base moves from $10B toward $20B, $30B and beyond, the question becomes whether Starlink can maintain venture-like growth rates while operating inside what is ultimately a telecom market. The bullish argument is that Starlink is not exactly a traditional telecom company. Its satellite constellation gives SpaceX a global distribution network that terrestrial operators struggle to replicate, particularly in rural areas, developing markets, maritime, aviation and other difficult-to-connect environments. There is also optionality around direct-to-device connectivity, enterprise services, government contracts and potentially other satellite applications. If those businesses become meaningful revenue streams, Starlink could evolve from simply being "satellite internet" into a broader space infrastructure platform. That would justify a much more aggressive valuation than simply capitalizing Starlink like another telecom operator. But this is where I think investors need to be careful with the SpaceX hype. A $11.4B revenue run-rate sounds enormous, but revenue alone does not determine the quality of the business. Starlink requires enormous capital expenditure to deploy and replenish satellites, ground infrastructure and user terminals, while bandwidth economics and competition will determine how much of that revenue eventually becomes free cash flow. The really interesting question is not whether Starlink can reach $20B or $30B in revenue. It is whether SpaceX can continue compounding revenue rapidly without Starlink becoming just another giant, capital-intensive telecom business. My take: SpaceX is incredibly cool, and Starlink reaching ~$11.4B of annual revenue is genuinely impressive. But if the main growth engine for the SpaceX story is ultimately just telecom, I'm much less excited. A bigger Starlink is great, but a bigger telecom company alone does not create an extraordinary valuation. The real upside comes if Starlink becomes the cash-flow engine that funds a much larger SpaceX ecosystem: launch, defense, direct-to-device, satellite infrastructure and eventually entirely new space-based businesses. Starlink is impressive but starlink alone is not enough. $SPCX
