My daughter is looking to buy a vacant block
of land in Foster Victoria and build a house on it. Foster is pretty
strange in that large parts of the town seem to be on NBN Fixed Wireless
and other parts on FTTN, but if she builds a new house I understand,
according to the NBN website, that FTTP is the preferred technology to
build. It would seem pretty dumb to lay new copper in order to provide FTTN
when my daughter will probably not want a landline phone.
It would be cheaper to just say 'connect via fixed wireless' but looking at
Street View it looks like the fixed wireless tower is hidden behind trees.
Is this what is likely to happen, that NBN Co run a dedicated fibre from
the closest node to the new house?
Any tips appreciated.
You don't get a landline phone anymore even on FTTN, its all Voip,
unless you go with Fixed Wireless and even then some of the cheap and
cheerful residential ISP's will still flog you a Voip Based phone as its
bundled in with most plans.
So if they want to keep the landline FTTN isn't a viable option as that
service gets cut off.
Also its up to whatever NBN decide to give you in terms of technology,
you would need to talk to an RSP.
It is all over the place and a mess 5G when it comes out will be faster
then the current NBN anyway.
