    Ooh, nice. My hometown is on the list, so the family I still have up there will finally get FTTP within the next few years.

    Those in town will finally have the option to beat the internet speed my parents get out on the farm with Starlink.

      Took me about 18 months from my suburb being on the list to having it connected and running. the fibre was run in the street about 12 months before I was able to connect.

      Be patient, it will come.

      Shit thing is, without paying for an extortionate business connection, the best I can get is 1000/50 or If I pay $200 per month, 250/100 and that’s it. should be 1000/1000 but NBNco was built for profit.

        If the government can hold off from selling nbn co as a whole, hopefully we can see wholesale prices stabilise for a while once they reach the FTTP-everywhere point.

        Though with our luck, they’ll probably sell it to the lowest bidder sometime shortly after that.

        Ive just got it 2 months. I was FTTN up until then but that was only about 18 months. Despite being close to Sydney CBD. There was no fibre put in. It has been there all along and I’ve lived here for over 10 years! Such a wasted opportunity.
