    Hi all,

    Just landed in Sydney and have moved into an apartment with 4 friends and just have a couple of quick questions.

    TV - We have foxtel, but arent subscribed to premium channels (sports etc). We dont deal with the landlord, just the management company. Is there any way that we can get these channels and just get them added to our rent our would the landlord need to be contacted.

    Internet - We would preferably want WiFi and dont need a home telephone, so can anyone recommend any good deals/providers. Have been looking at this one, is 6gb enough a month between 5 people (obviously we wont be doing any heavy downloading).

    Thanks in advance
    Will

    For foxtel it depends, is it set up in one of your names/bank acc.
    Easiest way is to ring them and ask them to upgrade you. They want your money so they don't make it hard.
    Make sure you get IQ too, foxtel's name for Sky+

    that broadband package looks pretty good. it's over 3G so no phone line needed. Wifi is pretty rare, most of the time the company push those USB dongles, the wifi units are better as multiple users can connect at once. Make sure you use a access key, you don't want the neighbours using up all your bandwidth.
