I've been connected to NBN FTTP on 100/40 connection for almost two years now. 

Seriously,  once you've had it.  It is a must have for your next house,  as you do NOT want to go back to ADSL no matter what the cost is!

Sure you weren't on a 14.4k model?

Previously on adsl wire to hard drive we used to download at 1Mbps, and now getting 74Mbps download and 30Mbps uploads.


Here's my iPad test on the wifi with 4 people currently on iPads etc

What speed are you paying for?   Have you connected using ethernet cable directly to your router to ensure it's not wi-fi issues?

Fibre To The Driveway!

Brilliant isnt it?

Next it'll be Fibre To Halfway Up The Front Lawn.

Fibre To The Outside Dunny

Fibre To The Front Step

Fibre To The Front Door

Then eventually when Plan X from Outer Space is revealed (in about 50 years time at the current rate of progress) it'll be back to the future to Fibre To The Premises as originally planned .

Imagine the looks of incredulity on visitors faces when they ask what our internet is like and we reply "Oh we have fibre to the driveway!"

Where I am it's FTTN, which is 3 streets away !!  I currently get approx 14mbps and the most I'll get with NBN is supposed to be 38mbps.

So, the closest plan is 25mbps, and really, what great advantage is the extra 11mbps gonna do ( if I actually do get it )??

Unfortunately, I'll have to connect before next April, but I'm still no wiser as to who I'll go with ??

Gronk,

We have been told it will cost us $50 to change phone providers, and keep our current phone number, or have a new number at no cost.

We were with Adam/IInet here in SA. They are the worse. We were with Adam for ten years, since IInet took over they have gone to the dogs.
Took 2 months to get the NBN connected via IInet, then they couldn't give a time frame to send out a router. I gave their $69 a month 12 down & 1 up the flick it was no faster than my previous ADSL2.
We are now with Boom Broadband, Aussie owned and you speak to an Aussie within 1min of calling. $79 per month, unlimited data, 25 down & 5 up, no contract $100.00, router $89.00. Its been 1 month, all good and fast so far, as long as we have power  ;D

We were connected to NBN FTTN at work last week.  Here is a speed test from it.  We're over the moon with the speed!   With all the negative hype about it,  really didnt know what to expect.   

It's almost better than the speeds I usually get at home, with FTTP!

I've been with iiNet for my NBN at home, and now we're with iiNet at work too.  Their service has been very good,  even after their unfortunate takeover by TPG.  Hopefully TPG continue to leave iiNet alone, I dont have the best memories of them but some of my friends swear by them.

Fixed wireless NBN, suitably unimpressed. Test just now.....

Ping 30ms DL 23.56mpbs Up 3.67mpbs

4G on iPhone with Telstra = 35ms DL 27.23mbps Up 4.38

Once school is out for the day, the NBN is slower than a courier Pigeon.
