I don't know, 1.8PB in even only 12 hours works out at .... .... 41.6666 Gbps or
about the same as Vodafone. I'd say its the same order of magnitude, although
the Telstra network on a whole during Sunday certainly would have pulled at
least 400G if not Tbps.

Telstra reports the network did 1.8 PB of traffic on Sunday. Impressive. When
vodafone did their free weekend for a similar stuff up I believe they reported
only getting a peak of 40gbps, which would be almost an order of magnitude less
than Telstra.

I've only heard the names of some resellers.
Best to check.

Does this include Telstra resellers like Boost?
They haven't said anything to me so I presume not.

A lot of it has to do with the massive increase in signalling as each user
terminal tries to re-register with the HLR/HSS (3G/4G respectively).
That's why when you bring them back on you have to do it gradually... it is a
highly reliable system generally and 4G is definitely more so than 3G.

Same thing occurred there, if and RNG failed, if the switch-over to the standby
failed for some reason, the resulting registration storm caused the network to
fall-over for 18 hours.
