[AusNOG] NBN Rollout Confusion in Glebe NSW CRM:000084250

[Damien Gardner Jnr]

If it's anything like FTTN, you have to use the supplied router. I had FTTN
installed a fortnight ago. I had sync for two hours on a Draytek Vigor 130,
then it dropped. Telstra said third party devices aren't allowed, and the
port will be re-enabled when the Telstra tech comes to complete the install
with the Telstra-supplied modem.  But annoying as they had told me during
ordering that I COULD use my own VDSL modem.

The four weeks between NBN and Telstra visits for FTTN is kinda rediculous
too.   Very glad I had a spare Inplace for NBN to use!

 We ran to the sounds of thunder.
We danced among the lightning bolts,
 and tore the world asunder
