As a matter of urgency, the community of Karalee, Chuwar and Barellan Point have inadequate Internet access.


With the digital age now upon us, Internet access is no longer a luxury but a necessity. The are a lot of businesses as well as homes that are not able to access fast and reliable Internet access without an extreme cost for doing so. Our community is ten minutes from the heart of Ipswich and 30 minutes from the CBD of Brisbane yet service options are limited. In places, ADSL connections are intermittent or not available at all. It is imperative that the Government and telecommunications companies such as Telstra, Optus and Vodaphone investigate and address this issue for the benefit of the community as a matter of urgency

broadband access is a basic requirement in this age, lets catch up, we have high school students and work from home also. While those who have broadband get access to faster, we get left behind. The NBN does not even have us on the upgrade queue.

please please please give us the ability to have broadband, we pay so much for something that most Queenslanders have so readily available to them for so much less than us here in Chuwar.

This is a totally unacceptable situation, we can only get wireless internet which costs a fortune and is very limited. We also pay for phone and lines when others can get bundles which includes all this, costing much less.

this is unacceptable in this day and age. Internet is a basic yet crucial requirement of everyday living.
