MODERATORS
I am on aging PMG era copper with no upgrade on the horizon. I expect to die from old age before NBN offers better than 50Mbps VDSL. I will never forgive the cynical partisan politics that produced this shit show or the idiots who knew it was bullshit but went along with it due to tribalism. It was supposed to be a national network.
It was the Telecom Oligarchs that kept the speed and infrastructure limited.
I really wish that Telstra had not been accepted into the NBN; In my alternate history, FTTH would have been rolled out in parallel to all existing corroded copper. The problem with my alternate timeline is that Telstra would try to push fixed 4G and 5G as their only option and oversaturated the MobileNet infrastructure… wait they are doing that anyway!
