Status, classification, call it whatever you like. Point being, it can change with the stroke of a pen in Canberra.

I didn't know that. I always thought Private Window in Firefox and Incognito in Chrome were vanilla browsers. Why would someone make these windows the same as their regular browser window?

He was complicit in the crimes, because he was instrumental in their cover up.

Yes, can an also open Firefox and click on "New Private Window." If the website works, than an extension is causing a problem.

If reboot doesn't work in the future, try uninstalling and reinstalling also.

I think there would be a lot of guys that wouldn't really care too much if the pension was stopped, but care more bout the 2 years starting again, and again, and again. Basically, the 2 year sentence of living in Oz.

Be sure to keep your absence "prolonged."

Nah, I'll just ring a nice lady in a Centerlink call center, have a joke with her, then post it here as fact.

Perhaps you should stay on topic and stop trolling.

Call it what you will, but my point is, one day Centerlink classify you as this, and the next day they an classify you as that. The laws / classification criteria is changing all the time.

Don't you mean stuck inside Thailand?

Thanks. "A short absence from Australia (as long as the person is still classed as an Australian resident) will not impact on the end date of the 2-year period (i.e. the absence still counts towards the person's 2-year period)." Would be interested to know what is a "short absence." "Since 20 September 2000, a former resident who returns to Australia and is granted Age or DSP, or who transfers to Age under SS(Admin)Act section 12, cannot take that pension outside Australia if they leave within 2 years of having resumed residence in Australia. The purpose of this legislation is to discourage people from travelling to Australia just to get an Australian pension to take back overseas." This tends to go against the "short absence" clause.

As I thought. So the other member's post can not be relied upon. Does anyone know how long you can be outside of Oz for during the qualifying period?

You can personally attack me all you like, but on such an important subject for many, how about we stick to some facts, not jokes from some call center lady from Centerlink. Do you know the answer to my question? Yes, or no?

No, I'm not a pain in the ass. Just looking for some facts, not jokes from Centerlink. Does anyone know how long you can be out of Oz, either in total, or in one trip, during the 2 year qualifying period?

No, I'm not. The key word is "prolonged" which you said was 1 year. So, fly back to Oz, put your papers in, get approved, fly back to Thailand, fly back to Oz within 12 months, fly out again, and fly back to Oz within the second 12 month period and you have qualified for portability. Based on the information in your previous post, this can be done. It either can be, or it can't be. Which one is it?

So, you agree with me. His status changed real quick.

So, you can basically fly in / fly out to qualify, providing you fly in / fly out each year until you qualify. Sounds too easy. What's the catch?

Why strange? Just pointing out out quick one's status can change, as seen in the article.

Yes, they similar, but what have you got to lose trying AnyDesk? You just may prefer it, as I did.

The laptop will cost you more than other devices that have been suggested. It will also use more electricity, and being secondhand, will be more prone to failure. I used to use TeamViewer. After trying AnyDesk, I will not go back. Give it a try and see for yourself. Your goal is masking your IP address from certain websites, and while your work around will work, as I said, it's expensive, labor intensive, and inefficient. There are cheaper and easier ways to achieve your goal.

Yes, I know. I just mentioned that some years ago, any talk of VPN's on this forum were deleted, because they were used to circumnavigate geo blocking. After a lot of debate, any and all threads about VPN's are now allowed. Personally, I would be lost without my VPN's in Thailand.

Unless I am mistaken, he wants to do TeamViewer sessions with his sister's computer, and then open websites that are geo blocked. His method would work, but it's not an efficient way of doing it, and I haven't even touched on the privacy issue.

Others have suggested a VPN back to his sister's router. I have suggested some plug an play devices, but that's extra cost in hardware. If the OP and his sister do not or can not set up a VPN to the router, I'm not quite sure they would be interested in setting up Wake on Lan through the router, either. Easier to go into the BIOS of the computer and check the box "Restart after power outage" or whatever it is. A WiFi switch can then be used by the OP to turn his sister's computer on and off, but once again, how would the OP know if or when his sister is using the computer? He would have to message her, before turning it off remotely, or risk cutting her off. I suggested it's a lot more energy efficient and less labor intensive, and less problems for his sister, if he just bought his own small device and asked his sister to power it up and connect it to her router.

Or another 2 minutes apart.
