The NBN and things you should know

As I don’t know your area’s make up, eg dense housing or sparse rural, I can’t really give you any idea about how you might improve your likely NBN speeds. However I do recommend you contact your local Federal & State MPs, your council, your State’s Senators and complain/ask for improved service.
If you have many around you in the same “boat” get a petition together to lodge in both Federal & State Parliaments through your local representatives. Try to get the NBN to fit Micro-Nodes[quote=“grahroll, post:1, topic:14546”]

Hopefully you may have success but at the risk of sounding trite (but I am sincere in my hope) as the saying goes “Nothing ventured, nothing gained”.
