I only use a laptop with a portable wifi dongle

For several months now it has been misbehaving - failing to connect, very slow or constant buffering, "insert sim card and restart"
I have been lax in getting something done about this issue
Made an appointment with telstra to change over to an updated model without changing my plan.
Have you ever had this problem?

nope been using dongles for years - only option sometimes in the woods!! I am always amazed I can get a signal at all - I am a mile from the highway - but certainly surrounded by others who may have stronger line connections buried in the ground??

I access the internet on my iPhone or my Samsung television using Spectrum Wi-Fi when I’m at home and have very few problems.

When away from home Consumer Cellular provides Wi-Fi access on my iPhone or I tag along on some sort of free Wi-Fi hotspot provided by some merchants.

I rarely step off the pavement, I’m not sure what my experience would be out back of beyond.
