Yes, NBN is a wholesaler and should be supplying the "nbn connection

My point was that with the current Telstra/Optus cable gateways, you
have just one box, the cable modem with router and Wifi access point
all in one. Telstra even gives customers a choice of model, with a
premium version available at higher cost.
Going to an "nbn connection box" plus a separate user router is a
backwards step: more complexity, more space, more electricity...
Couldn't of described the current MTM any better...
Yes, your old cable modem will be replaced with an "nbn connection box"
and you
will get what you are given. But nobody knows what yet due to lack of
documentation.
The talk of DOCSIS3.1 is fairly misleading as well. It will be used to
primarily pack
more users on the segments as apposed to increasing speed (it provides 1Gbps
but you will still only be able to get 100Mbps).
