Of course you can run the connection the last few metres inside. But that's up to the user, not the network. It's up to the user to decide what level of performance they require and to install the required equipment and cabling to achieve that performance. And to insist the NBN is connected to their premises in the appropriate manner, perhaps paying extra for the installation. This issue is as relevant to FTTH/FTTN as it is to ADSL/cable/wireless. With any internet connection, you need to distribute that internally to all internet-connected devices, selecting the appropriate connection method for each device based on the performance you require. ...R. _______________________________________________ Link mailing list Link@mailman.anu.edu.au http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
