I have winged on several occasions about internet charges and facilities in Australasia and this trip is no exception. My current location has excellent good quality facilities, but internet access is another matter. One optionis a weak wireless signal with a charging rate that is extortionate to say the least, not only for time but with a very low megabyte limit. The other is a broadband cable that will stretch to the sofa, but not the desk and runs at 30kb/second. It's no way to create a working environment, but it is around the norm. I keep thinking year on year that it may change, but I begin to despair that it ever will.

Don't hold your breath - good internet access in Australian hotels is a rarity. And if it does work you are looking at around $25.00 per day. So much for choosing a reasonably priced hotel.
With all the travelling I have done in the last 6 months I could count on one hand the number of hotels which had reasonable access at a price you could afford.
Australia really lags behind the rest of the world in this respect

Well actually...
You are probably ahead of Aotearoa / Nouvelle Zelande in this regard!
