We have fttp here, we just built our house, and then nbnco came along a week later and added their little box to the side of the house.
Trouble is, our area doesn't get activated until the whole area is finished... Somewhere between 3-9 months they say.
So we either pay $300 to have Telstra connect adsl2 in the meantime, and then potentially switch to nbn in 3 months time... Noting that we will have no choice to switch. Once nbn goes live in this area adsl2 is shut off.
So we decided to wait until nbn is finished, they do the install for free then.
We also have ****poor cell reception here. Can't use my Optus mobile in the house at all, and it only just works outside. But according to Optus I'm smack bang in the middle of 5 towers lol.
