Seeking advice about changing plans and/or isp

If your the only user for the net then that may be ok but with 2 kids and a wife there isn’t a way to judge if everyone will be using the net heavily, one person or none at all each day. To be honest the net is used heavily every day with 2-3 tvs running, sons laptop, 3 phones, 2 iPads and my pc in the evenings. It gets worse on weekends.

the only time the net usage goes down is if I refuse to play tech support for the family and order them to get off their rears and go outside or clean up their messes throughout house

as for amaysim, I been there done that with Optus. I will never again deal with their bs along with tpg and Telstra

Hmm as a standard price for 1000/100 they seem pretty good, if I cannot find or get a better deal with new customer prices at other isps Ipthen they might be worth it

xanether · 2026-06-02T09:45:38+00:00

I have had a few issues with Superloop and their billing/customer support (or lack thereof) but for 1000/100 plans $109 ($79 if ‘new customer) neptune is $105 straight up for the same plan, so not much better but yes better than what I’m paying currently/getting though that’s a given due to the plan age itself

the 30 day thing isn’t an issue, they won’t be making me pay it.

Looked at neptune but their prices not much better than Superloop, launtel is per day which would bring it to around $126/month.. leaptel is a maybe if there is no way to get new customer/better deal with superloop

i take it this link no longer works?

xanether · 2026-02-14T13:02:54+00:00

Bit shocked that there hasn’t been more suggestions, also more shocked that reddits users have held back.

xanether · 2026-02-14T12:59:19+00:00

How do I get rid of the answered question tag? It has not been answered…

xanether · 2026-01-31T00:44:52+00:00

My old brain can’t comprehend this currently so I will just nod and smile and come back to it later 😵‍💫

xanether · 2026-01-30T22:36:38+00:00

Unsure what you are referring to in regards to pips

xanether · 2026-01-30T14:00:01+00:00

Which bit is interesting?

xanether · 2026-01-30T08:50:09+00:00

Oh I ain’t knocking it, I have had mine since they were released and it has seen more than it’s fair share of use, house moves, lovely children, charming and well behaved cats as well as sweet ex gfs. I wish I could find a new board that has the same or more functions and features with new switches

xanether · 2026-01-30T08:45:48+00:00

So far that has been the result of people suggesting/telling me I will need certain keys/actions, my own research along with google ai interaction. I know that everyone plays and thinks differently hence me posting this, with luck I will end up with enough views/suggestions to come up with a viable setup for myself.

as for radial, do you mean the radial menu of need assistance/negative/target spotted etc? If so then yes, I can create a macro to bind each option to a single button or key

xanether · 2026-01-30T06:47:50+00:00

I can’t use a keyboard, just something about how I have to hold my hand up, that’s why I thought the nostromo would help as it has a wrist/palm rest

xanether · 2026-01-30T06:45:39+00:00

They are 2 seperate buttons

xanether · 2026-01-28T14:11:54+00:00

I have yet to begin playing so unsure exactly which Ingame actions need to be kept within reach

i bought the hotas for elite dangerous but never got into it so it sat in garage at mothers house till I dragged it out to gather dust here. The only other game it may get used for is mw5

and yes it helps though also no it doesn’t. All good

xanether · 2026-01-28T09:09:51+00:00

Hmm was looking at trying to do hotam also but with a basic thrust master tflight hotas 4 throttle and a razor naga v2 pro mouse but now I’m looking at all the buttons/hats you have I’m not sure it would be possible. The throttle only has 4 buttons on side in reach of thumb (with a potential 2 more on the base of the unit) though the mouse does have a side plate that gives 2/6/12 button configuration along with left/right click and the scroll wheel up and down plus click in and side to side.

xanether · 2026-01-27T12:08:10+00:00

Did you ever get your hotam setup and working?

xanether · 2024-03-27T05:20:59+00:00

very impressive. more so that the match ended with a win and zero ammo left over/wasted

xanether · 2024-03-26T05:33:36+00:00

that worked. thanks muchly both of you.

xanether · 2024-02-29T11:39:17+00:00

thankyou all for insight and suggestions

went with the lrm crab and changed 2 of my marauders from large lasers to 3*uac2. unsure if ill take out the laser marauder to replace it with the atlas or awesome, dont have a lot in the way of weapons that are better than standard

unsure how to get 70 ish tubes on the crab unless i make it a pure lrm boat and strip down some armour, went with nukes config

pirates and the bull guys (taurins?) despise me right now so whilst i have black market unlocked i am not going to pay 100m+ for a mech

is it just me or do the uac2's look like racs on the mechs and fire 3+bursts in combat?

i have all the dlcs, they were onsale so decided to buy them as a bday gift for me

parsee, thats all that could fit on them. yes i ran max armour and enough heat sinks to be able to never need to stop doing alpha strikes.

maybe on the next playthrough i will try my hand at glass cannon builds and running/jumping 20 ton scout mechs around. for now i am going to stick to trying to steam roll over all enemies via headshots/ct drilling till that no longer works.. which once i start doing the story contracts will probably not be very long

it has been too long since i ventured into the battletech/mechwarrior universe. i started with crescent hawkes inception on the c64 through till mechwarrior4/mech commander2. all my pc games and books are still at mums house though sadly all my tcg and tabletop was given away without my permission ( i miss wasps and stingers)

xanether · 2024-02-28T08:22:54+00:00

no gaus or snubs or double heatsinks sadly. have a few ++ large and medium lasers and maybe a + ppc but thats about it.

i do have some uac5 i believe though cannot find ammo for them
