Can somebody tell me one good thing that they've done throughout the years?

>>58448672
Can't, I'm renting a room and the landlord won't do shit.

>>58448620

step up nigga

>>58448899
Nah, I'm only going to be here for half a year for work.
Just pissed at the incompetence of Telstra. They won't even tell me what they're doing. I pray to god I'll end up with decent internet after this. But knowing Australia it'll be sub 4mbps.

>>58448031
Atleast your isp has a website you faggot.

>litterally call my isp cause I spend so much time on the net I know when shit is going down.
> it nothing yo
>day later it shits and get a auto call
>you spend so much time on the net you know the warning signs of the infrastructure collapsing before the isp

>>58448031
I like Optus.

>>58448031

>>58448672
Won't do shit anyways if Telstra owns the lines.

>>58449105
NBN is government owned, yes. The idea is to remove the privatization.

i.e. Your other service providers aren't slaved to Telstra or Optus or whoever installed the lines first. Instead, they have to go through a government entity.

i.e. Whatever provider you choose, fixing problems that arise is going to take longer because your ISP has to pass its problem on to NBNco, which then passes it on to the technician team, which then fixes the problem, which then tells NBNco, which then tells your ISP its fixed.

But it means every ISP has even ground for speed and quality. Which is probably a good trade-off

>>58448031
THEN WHO WAS POST?

>>58448031
Not as bad as literally having NBN (FTTN) which drops out every 10 minutes during peak usage times

To top it off the next suburb over has FTTP

What did I do to deserve this

Whoever turned FTTP into FTTN needs to get shot.

I'm in the states and have FTTP. No data caps, and very good speeds for the price.

kek, well the ping is shit, but not too bad.

Fixed wireless NBN a shit it tops out at 50mbit theoretically and I can barely get 25mbit and no fttn or fttp overbuild.

Ive been stuck on this since 2014 life is suffering.

Ffs ADSL2+ and docsis3.x was faster and those are fucking old as fuck.

Now finally we get vdsl a decade late and its worse than the old copper and cable based net it replaces.

Just fuck my internet up mates oh well at least it's unlimited and not censored

Never had a problem with my internet

>at 50mbit theoretically and I can barely get 25mbit and no fttn or fttp overbuild.
that's upsetting.

My ISP in the US provisions 2.4gbps download and 1.2gbps upload per 64 households. With a maximum of 500/500mbps package available (I have 150/150mbps)

So the maximum theoretical download I can be throttled to (due to congestion) is ~37mbps and ~19mbps upload.

This is just due to how my ISP does their fiber rollout.

They also apparently have plans in the works for a ~2020 upgrade to a 40gbps download and 10gbps upload per 64 households.
This would allow them to offer 2.5/2.5gbps plans or even higher.


Why the fuck Aus decided to gut the NBN is beyond me.

>>58451884
Yeah but you clearly have a problem with your brain, since you're taking picture of your screen and posting it on /g/.

Shit I really feel bad for you aussies, I thought your country was going to roll out 100mbps fiber nationwide? Whatever happened to that goal?

>>58451948

>>58451932
what isp?

>>58451964
They were promised FTTP (fiber to the premises), which is hooking each house up to the Fiber backbone and using a local ONT to convert the fiber signal into a coaxial, ethernet, etc connection for use in your home.

However in I think ~2013 or so when the new government took over they decided to nix FTTP and instead start doing FTTN (fiber to the node) which means there is a local node connected to the fiber backbone, then copper or wireless to your house. Obviously FTTN is not nearly as fast as FTTP, isn't able to be upgraded as easily, and is simply a bit cheaper to build.

So they basically decided to reduce upfront costs while fucking any possible future upgrades :D

>>58451996
Verizon FiOS.

>>58451268
its so much better, privatisation benefits very few people. i dont get why nbnco doesn't just rent straight to civs

>>58451999
so does anyone new get fttp? fttn seems like utter shit since its not even fibre really

>>58452043
I don't believe so no. Though the closer you are to a node the faster your connection will likely be.

>>58452063
whats even the point then, if you're going to update an infrastructure at least make it so its somewhat current / future proof instead of already out dated. i was shocked when i had family boasting about 30/10 connections when i lived in korea

>>58452106
Yup, sure it's an upgrade from the garbage 1-4mbps most of them are stuck on currently.

But they were promised fiber, and FTTN really isn't that.

>>58448305
No you don't

>>58452131
They were the NBN trial, so yeah they do.

>>58452131
the places that need it least got it first
