No copper on the end of this one, mate. It's fibre all the way in. FTTH. (That's a H, not a N)Quote:

I'm about to cancel the service. With what I use, prepaid wireless is much cheaper and far more usable. From $80pm to $140py.Quote:

Here's tool put together by MrMac over at Whirpool.
It colour codes each property to identify what technology is/will be used to provide NBN and at what speeds. Very Interesting:
NBN MTM Alpha (use search button or move map)
Hardly works. [emoji6]Quote:

Read First: This is an unofficial best estimate on both NBN technology and speeds to act only as a guide and overview. Click on a premise dot (zoom in) to get more detail per premise. This is a work in progress and technology on the map will change. If the premise is grey it has not been estimated as any tech or located a Telstra pillar in case of FTTN.
must be pre-alpha.
i looked at a few SA suburbs and no information.
What do I know?
We have built a new house, moved in in December.
The NBN is available in the street.
Applied to one of the major carriers in October.
Our block is one half of a split block and so its taken until last week to get a "Location ID" out of NBN Co.
Our lead in cable is still hanging out of the front lawn as it has since November.
I've been given March 27 as the date the work will commence. So call it a April connection.
To get this far I have had to make a formal complaint to NBN Co, the carrier and the TIO.
With two boys at Uni and me working from home a lot, the cost of Telstra's 4G (we don't get the other carrier's 4G here) is running to $80-100 a week!
It took until early Feb to convince the carrier that the location they were looking at and insisting was connected, was in fact my next door neighbours' NBN modem.
I would laugh it were funny but the incompetence and bureaucracy here is staggering.
The last time I checked - August 2016 - there were no plans for NBN in my suburb for at least 3 years. With that in mind, I ditched ADSL 2+ and moved back onto Telstra cable. I get back from a week overseas last week and low-and-behold... NBN Co have updated their plans for my suburb! Turns out we're getting HFC... so I already have NBN broadband and they'll install the home phone line connect whenever. :-\
