I'm still wondering when I'll be able to order my telstra fiber
connection at home
NBNco says they will be activating in January for my area in penrith,
what website should i go to for telstras offering?.
I've looked and looked but I cant seem to find telstra rolling FTTP
outside of the South Brisbane Exchange area.
