we just had a big petition, it was called the election, the will of all the people!!
This isn't a debate about the election, just the plans for the NBN let's not get off topic.Quote:

Hopefully a silver lining may be that they will allow iiNet to expand their HFC locally.
4G is my only saviour .. 80 down, 39 up. When Telstra flick the switch next year hopefully it will be double that speed.
The Conservatives are Full of it! Will be Realized soon enough!!Quote:

will be interesting to see what happens now though.
I'm interested to find out what's going to happen with Optus HFC now that Liberal are in. The original plan was for Optus to effectively hand the HFC network over to NBNCo which was fine as NBN offer 100Mbps speeds just like HFC does today. But with Liberal claiming "up to" 25Mbps being enough for everyone, I wonder what game they'll try and play for those of us who are already on higher speed networks... not exactly fair game to force people off an existing service that offers better performance than their proposed replacement.
That's good for you, it depends on the contention of the local cell - my local tower is very heavily congested on the 3g (to the point of unusability) due to the wisdom of Telstra of installing one tower in the CBD and 3 around the edge of town!Quote:
