I saw guys running trace into all the conduit in my neighbourhood, and they said it would be a couple months til we could all get fibre to the house.
2 years later… sweet fuck all.
It was about 18 months for me from seeing the fiber in the street to being able to get connected.
It will happen, just keep bugging your ISP for updates.
I'm on HFC ... It's all I had before NBN, it's all that's available now.
I'm in inner-eastern melbourne... I hope everyone that had a part in screwwing us all over steps on a Lego taking the bins out and gets garbage water in their mouth.
What's the ISP going to do about it?
Jack shit, they have no power over that, but you can be made aware of an available upgrade as soon as they are possible.
I'm with ABB, and when FTTH upgrades were available in my street I had my appointment booked the day after they were given the green light by NBNCo. I was up and running on gigabit fiber (upgraded from FTTN VDSL) within 2 weeks total.
Ours was a bit over 18 months from roping the pits to getting the notification that it was ready
