Australia-specific troubleshooting

Things that can go wrong in Australia.

  • Outback driving: Telstra is the only carrier with a hope. Optus and Vodafone drop frequently beyond major highways.
  • Great Barrier Reef day-tour boats have coverage to ~15 km offshore. Outer reef trips go beyond.
  • Uluru has full Telstra 4G at the resort and the rock; walking trails are fine.
