The Croaker 2014 08 August
THE croaker Correspondence to: the Editors via email: [email protected] Volume 7 No. 4 August 2014 Editors Deb Campbell & Jane Gorman Telstra is coming to the Marsh: Meeting Wednesday August 20th at 5.00pm—7.00pm ADSL & 4G For Deans Marsh: Deans Marsh and district is embarking on a quest to work with Telstra to help us upgrade all our communica- tions systems so that they do actually communicate. We have already collected a list of 50 interested com- munity members to show we are serious. Now we need to assemble and ask questions and put our case. When I first moved to the Marsh from Lorne, I was told by Customer Service in rather triumphal tones ‘Deans Marsh doesn’t have ADSL and it never will’. But it appears this is not necessarily the case. Our neighbours in Lorne and Birregurra campaigned for ADSL and succeeded: now it is our turn. Deans Marsh is right in the middle of one of Victoria’s most fire-prone areas. We have increasing numbers of visitors travelling through whose phones and sat navs do not work here. We also have residents whose mo- biles do not work in their own homes, let alone anywhere outside. We also have expensive and inadequate internet. We are hoping to work with Telstra to make real changes; the first step is a demonstration of support from us all. Anyone who is around 5kms from the Deans Marsh exchange should be able to get ADSL, and a 4G tower would help everyone, including visitors and travellers.
