[AusNOG] Typical NBN Takeup speeds

I'm seeing this in Canberra as well. I went to turn up some circuits in a new building the other day to find that the NTD wasn't even installed in half of the units. Now i have to argue with NBNCO to get their contractors back out there to finish the job.


Thanks, Jackson Fisher

The same is in Gosford - garbage installs. Contractors trying to get as many done as fast as possible it seems.

Hi All, just wondering what people are seeing as a typical NBN plan speed from users, I am interested in understanding if people moving to the NBN are actually using the faster speeds available or if most people just go on an ADSL2 type speed like the 12/1 or 25M speed options.

On a side note to this, I had the pleasure to visit a nearby suburb in my area which has recently become NBN fibre enabled, had some nice lunch in a café and went for a walk afterwards, I was totally and utterly disgusted by the install practices of these NBN contractors, fibres just dangling from boxes shoddily mounted to the outside walls of buildings, a bit of flexible conduit here and there, no conduit clips on most, big gaps between the conduit and the box to let water ingress, etc etc. this was even the case on the local banks building.

I really was gobsmacked by this, people have no pride in their work any longer, it would really take about 10 mins to walk down the entire business area of this suburb with a 2M long stick with a hook on the end of it and take out at least a hundred businesses by just yanking on the fibre hanging out of these boxes and breaking it, if this is what is happening everywhere then the NBN is doomed IMHO.

Regards
Paul
