LNP do not consider corroded infrastructure in their To the Node
concept.
Telstra, of course, denies corrosion. Technicians work around the
problem and are told to keep quiet.
We have had repeated issues with our (and neighbours) telephone lines
not working properly over the last several years.
Last time was several weeks ago, couldn't get a dial tone.
Due to my use of Freeswitch as a PBX, any problems don't get noticed
straight away, so people trying to contact us can't.
Unfortunately a lot of people don't get FTTH. There were letters in
the Herald Sun on Sunday saying silly things like NBN is obsolete
already, everyone uses 4G, I don't have a phone connection, why should
I pay for NBN, etc. No letters promoting the NBN.

Herald Sun - owned by people who do not want competition to wireless and
telstra copper! Go figure!
You are paying for a service, complain loud and long to Telstra and get
then to change twisted pairs. They won't admit it but the copper will be
almost dysfunctional.
If you phone, you will get some no-hoper from another country so demand
to speak to a level 2 or level 3 technician.
It's increasingly difficult because Telstra is well insulated from life,
but eventually you will get an Australian in the GoldCoast or Perth
office and they will help, they are great people and very helpful but
very difficult to get to.
