[AusNOG] Telstra Cable - Multiple-Access

[Skeeve Stevens]

Hi,

It's been a couple of years, but there has to be a process.  When we were
in Castle Hill in a business complex, the entire complex has Telstra
Cable... no residential at all...

I think I just rang up an said we were a business, and they take the
details down.
