[AusNOG] The Average (Theoretical) Speed Of The FTTN NBN So Far Is 46Mbps

[Guy Ellis]

Hi Kenneth,

I'm very impressed with your site, please keep up the good work.

Do you know if the placement of nodes for these sites are designed for 
FTTN, or just happen to be where there is a RIM/Top Hat?
My point being that if you can control / design the node location, you 
can ensure that most subscribers are within the magic 700-800m loop length.
If you use existing RIM locations then you have no control over loop 
length, which might explain the lower results.

Kind regards,
  - Guy.
