The article is pretty sensationalist in nature, just like the murdoch press was before the election. Are they all just trying to suggest the entire project (the largest infrastructure project Australia has ever had) is a big lemon? Dolts. "The sources said the problem was partly caused by the initial race under the former Labor government to hit rollout targets. With construction contractors under pressure to hit those goals, many homes were left with an inferior connection." So they are still trying to blame the former govt? Geez, get over it already! And what exactly is "an inferior connection" ? A FTTH connection either works or it doesn't. Unlike FTTN, where even the ACCC are suggesting "deception" when NBNco say connection speeds are "up to" whatever and you order a 100mbps plan but only get 40mbps, its your fault for asking for the wrong plan. The general consensus is that Tony and Malcolm have successfully demolished the NBN as they threatened to do pre-election. I am not a good arguer, but everything about Turnbull's MTM is just wrong. I just hope that once people start to realise what is happening with this project, they can start to rally for the right way to do it - do it once, do it right. Maybe they should look more closely at this google project: <http://www.google.com.au/tisp/> -andyf _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
