it all depends on your expectations.

I went from adsl2 to nbn about 6 months ago (I believe the majority get FTTN). With ADSL I generally achieved around 7-9 Mb download speed. I didn't want to increase my monthly spend so signed up to the minimum deal, speed wise, which is 12Mb. My speed now on NBN is still averaging around 9Mb, so no worse off, which was my main concern.

I've never been one to crave the biggest or fastest or best etc, so i'm happy with our NBN. seems reliable so far. no drop outs or disconnects or anything (not that there was on ADSL2 either).

so yes, it all depends on what you require from your internet service and your budget.
