NBN ws a classic case of a race horse designed by a committee (you get a 3 legged camel) and noses in the trough. It¹s now here and a growing a number of customers are resisting moving across but under the rules once in an area you have X months to migrate end of story so a new monopoly. To eventually be sold off for a profit??????
Personally the original plan of fibre to the house was the correct solution, and some people 100¹s of Km from main route mmm sadly might have to accept an alternative solution or pay $$$$$, but touchy feely people didn¹t like that reality. The NBN got too political to achieve what the initial design wanted sadly. New Zealand went with fibre to the node stage 1 then stage 2 fibre to the house. Another minor fact that slipped through was Telstra offered free of charge to connect every politicians office (and maybe home to fibre source vary) so of course our leaders think internet is great. I was at a Malcom Turnball town hall meeting when he promised the world with the NBN and his minders tried to shut down my questions "Why are politicians getting free¹ fibre and the people in this area can¹t even get sub ADSL speeds".

Hi all, I'm just trying to get myself a little bit better informed about NBN as an end to end solution. I see a lot of angst out in the community about the different access types (FTTx) and the remaining aging Copper portion of the network and how far behind we are. I also see people happy with the upgrades and improvements. So it's hard to gauge the real success or failure of the network. Currently I've been seeing people using "NBN" both as a tool to vent frustration about the Government and their own Internet access. All that aside, with the mixed media network we have now, is it as bad as people say? Or is it just a case of an incremental step forward?
