Yes. > If so, why would anyone in their right mind wish to migrate from an FTTC to > an FTTN service? Wait a bit, Transact is FTTN not FTTC as far as I know. I think transact laid a small amount of FTTP but not FTTC. Still, Transact FTTN VDSL2 through cat5 cabling is nearly always going to be better than NBN FTTN. A lot of people are pretty happy with transact VDSL2. I wonder who in NBN made the decision to duplicate the VDSL2 network? It beggars belief. Apparently there are some people who don't get such good bandwidth from Transact. People who are on non-super nodes and some who missed out, I have relatives on a street where all the houses except 4 were connected. Those 4 houses, nothing. > > David L. > -- Kim Holburn IT Network & Security Consultant T: +61 2 61402408 M: +61 404072753 mailto:[email protected] aim://kimholburn skype://kholburn - PGP Public Key on request _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
