UPCOMING works will affect Telstra mobile networks in Cape Paterson from Monday, March 24 until Friday March 28 causing offline service between 8am – 4pm each day.
Telstra confirmed that due to works by a third party/other network provider, Telstra has been asked to shut down parts of its mobile base station at Cape Paterson at different periods.
This will result in some disruption to mobile services in the area.
Telstra mobile customers will receive texts advising of the upcoming work.
Landline services, NBN internet services, will not be impacted.
Telstra customers can continue to make calls and send texts during disruption to mobile services by switching on Wi-Fi Calling (if they have an NBN or Starlink service). This is a free setting on most popular mobile phones and allows mobile phones to make and receive mobile calls while connected to Wi-Fi.
Business owners are encouraged to talk to their EFTPOS provider about connecting their EFTPOS terminals to their NBN and Wi-Fi connection to prevent delays in processing transactions.
