Telstra Turbo external antenna

[nakiguy]

Just wondering firstly if they work well, and how I can get one. I went into the Telstra agent in Hay NSW and all I got was a vacant look when I asked if they stock them or could get one in for me. Then I looked  through the online store and couldn't see them for sale. If any retailers read this let me know and I'll forward my credit card details and my address. Phone/Text on 0467056272

Hi nakiguy - welcome to the forums, and sorry to hear about your problems locating an antenna for your modem. If you haven't had any luck in store, it may be worth looking at the options at http://go.telstra.com.au/helpandsupport/-/how-do-i-choose-an-antenna-for-my-mobile-broadband-device- and contacting the Sales team from there if you have any other questions.

G'day nakiguy, i know the antenna you need because i have one on my bigpond turbo modem(mf633bp) It  is attached to a patch lead which screws onto the aerial lead. It will cost you about $130-140 inc. the patch lead. Best bought from a rural telstra dealer who will know what you need. Take your modem with you.

Regards

There are a number or really good Yagi antennas anavailable quite cheaply now. I'll recomend this store, as I bought one from them after reading all the info on their website. Very enlightening reading.
