    Default NBN timetable

    Hi all, does anyone know of roll out timetables of the NBN network in NSW. Or where I can find out??? I'm in the top end of the Central Coast (Lake Munmorah exchange). Telstra is not allowing any more dslams in their tiny exchange & I'm paying a fortune for ADSL.
    Thanks.

    This is just for the next 12 mths.....By the time it reaches me on the Gold Coast I think I will be either underground or gibbering in a nursing home.....very very slow rollout in my opinion

    Yeah checked that out before. They don't seem to give specific details on suburbs or streets. That is the info I need.

    Yes - without personally doing indepth research, I feel that this is being rolled-out selectively to areas that have marginal seats. If your electorate is missing this essential criteria, well perhaps kiss goodbye any chance of this being rolled out in your neighbourhood!

    arent you lucky to have ADSL as my exchange has nothing even though Broadband is available to two locations on either side of me.
    And the last map I saw for West of Sydney followed the general vague wanderings of the mobile phone coverage so I just keep wetting the piece of string and a supply of Forked sticks on hand at all times.
    I stand unequivicably behind everything I say , I just dont ever remember saying it !!

    Slow isnt the word......imagine how long its going to be when delays start coming in to it. They claim 10 years to complete, I can see 15 being more realistic.

    I wish it was a mobile network.

    Guess thats my issue, we have a Liberal member who wouldn't know what the internet is. I know his staff barely know how to use email (I've had private emails that were for other people sent to me!)
    Coding in C is like sending a 3 year old to do groceries. You gotta tell them exactly what you want or you'll end up with a cupboard full of pop tarts and pancake mix.

    Can't help you with NSW; Senator Conjob could not give me the date for Orange Grove, WA, outer Perth suburb. Could be up to eight years!
