<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Ken - for a single house on a single
block of land, she'll probably get whichever technology the
neighbours are allocated, which you can find out from the NBN
website lookup tool by moving the red pin around. If the block is
in a FTTN area, then there's likely to already be a copper trunk
cable running down the street to service the neighbours, so nobody
would be 'laying new copper' down the street for that block of
land - just a new copper line from the house (once its built) to
the street to connect in to the nearest junction pit, just like
any new house in the pre-NBN days. <br>
<br>
I think the bit about FTTP being preferred for new homes applies
to large property developments of 100 dwellings or more. <br>
<br>
This is actually the sort of query that NBN's call centre should
be able to answer, since she can't go through a RSP as she hasn't
got the property or ordered a service yet. (1800 687 626)<br>

<div>The whole NBN debate has always confused me.
Without offsetting the cost how would either
Government have afforded the NBN? The bill shock
from $300 NDF is annoying to say the least but I've
spent >$300 on some pretty stupid things in my
life and I'm sure there are others who would've paid
a lot more than $300 to get FTTP/FTTN. </div>
