Yeah luckily the node is close to my house
Even still my 4G is faster
Top is Telstra 4G
Bottom is Aussie Broadband FTTN
Also the Libs need to be gassed for the abortion that is now known as NBNco

>that upload
Absolutely disgusting, why the fuck is that allowed? This isn't adsl for christ's sake

I'm on ADSL2+

Not me. And I need to work from home with 400kb down.

WiFi speeds.

Wired is 940/940mbps

How the fuck are you getting 136mbit? the fastest I've ever seen advertised is 100

>wireless
>slower than gigabit
>more expensive than fibre to the home

fucking cunts

wired

>weird

hope you get hit by a bus cunt, fuck you.

4u
Someone has to have good internet user.

wireless device to the tower. Tower is like 500m from my house on top of a hill. So excellent reception

Hey it could be worse, I'm not a netlet by australian standards.

why do you need that I only have 20 :(

Yeah by Australian standards that's top 99% as far as I'm aware.

>these speeds
Does this mean that Australian shitposting is making a comeback?
Honestly haven't seen blatant ausfagging in over two years.

Hell god baby damn no

Yea, but what's your speed to a server in a relevant part of the world

Major services are going to be hosted locally, or cached locally in Australia anyway.

It would be rare to hit something that would REQUIRE transoceanic transit unless you're connecting to specific out of region game servers or some shit like that. Or you're trying to access a non-major web service that is hosted in the US/EU only.

I live in an apartment block and it's likely NBN will put a node in our basement and everyone will just have to use the existing copper for the last 25m what kind of speeds should I expect?

I get 98 down during the day, peak hours right now. I'm pretty happy with it, if gigabit come out tomorrow for 30% more I don't think I'd swap.

If it's fiber to the building you should expect ~100mbps

It's only when you start going beyond 75-100m from the node where things become problematic over copper.

Honestly if they had the proper fiber backhaul they could provide 1gbps on your building's infrastructure.

What do?

My gigabit upgrade saved me money. I went from $145/month for 150/150mbps to $95/month with 1gbps.

My ISP also only offers 2 tiers of speed, 50/50mbps or 1000/1000mbps.

I know that 50mbps would feel stupidely slow after 5+ years on 150mbps+, so 1gbps is really the only option. And thankfully not to expensive.

...

but y

our gubmint is shit

How do I find this out?

What are you stuck with in the interim?

Because I refuse to move to a city to get 100 FTTP.

finder.com.au/nbn-tracker/

Live out in the sticks too?

metro area?

Same speed as you and I pay $120 a month.

I think mine costs something like that, and it's capped at 200Gb a month.

>capped at 200Gb a month
wtf...

If they're fucking you that hard on speeds, surely there is simply no need for a data cap....

That's retarded.

Our biggest ISP is in control of everything. data caps + crap speeds.

Optus isn't much better unless you go anything other than ADSL.

Even Optus cable gets 110mbps down 2 up

gz

Been waiting 3 months for HFC
No other connection other than phone
Just fucking kill me at this point.

There's little incentive for the ISP to build decent infrastructure near me. And all these fat fuckin normies watching netflix only makes it worse.

HFC usually isn't too bad, besides the shit upload.

Damn, and I thought we had it bad in the US.

I had FTTH but lately the speeds went right down to about 5mbps max at peak time on a 100/40 connection. So I went wireless, it doesn't seem to have a speed restriction, and it never went below 80 at peak times. Sat round the 130 most of the time.

>Hey man did you check out on Netflix? Oh man..
H..ha.. y..yeah... it's great....heh!

>Don't have Netflix because shit fucking speed and no NBN until next year April.
>Telstra upgraded my cap to 1000GB for free a while back basically tormenting me since I can't even reach a quarter that.

This I pay Optus $40 a month for 12GB of 4G data just to play my online games without lag.

I'm about ~1km from the exchange in a major city

user fuck off, this wasn't from me.

According to NBNco FTTC is planned for 2019, will this shit shill too when it comes to me?

it will have good upload they just have to actually get around to sending pajeet to plug in my modem and press like 1 button

I even have a lead in cable and everything already
This is how I know the labor ball fondlers have got it wrong

this was doomed to failure from the start for relying on 3rd world labor pretty much all the way from the boots on the ground to upper management

I live in an Eastern European village and still got fiber optics.
God bless EU funding.
You mad, Aussies?

was me

>it will have good upload
guess it depends what you mean by "good".

I'm used to symmetrical speeds and unless it's DOCSIS 3.1 HFC simply doesn't have the upstream channels to provide more than ~30mbps.

Wow, does the EU tax you to make good interwebs??

Our government would have to tax everyone another 10% to make this NBN work properly

>You mad, Aussies?
if u were here now id stab u cunt

Sorry lad, I guess you can still load stroustrup.com/ without problems...

>tax everyone another 10% to make this NBN work properly
correction: tax everyone 10% more to develop a long term plan for the success of the system...

well I'm supposed to get 30mbps up which is luxurious by aus standards

Just got an upgrade from ADSL2 to FTTN. Having 5 times the upload speed I previously had is probably the best thing about it. I could get a speed boost to 100/40 but I doubt I'll get remotely near those speeds on the congested lines we have.

>Our government would have to tax everyone another 10% to make this NBN work properly
I doubt it, you currently have a tax revenue of around 25.6% of GDP which is ~1.5Trillion USD. So around 400 billion USD.

An extra 10% is 40 billion USD. If you can't wire up all of Australia on half that i'd be shocked. At least the cities and suburbs.

Fair enough, I'm the 1gbps guy so I can't really compare.

I'm not convinced docsis 3.1 will matter because as I undestand it they're just using the cable as an aids-ridden way to connect people to the normal fibre shit they're building so until they make that much faster it won't really make a difference

Could you please test this for me?

The 1GB file, what's the max speed you get when downloading?

e x a g g e r a t i o n

>Implying you live in Australia
>The current setup is costing $30billion

Not really sure on the fiber topology the NBN is employing, but if it's GPON then they can upgrade the OLTs to support NG-PON2 later which is 40gbps currently and has the potential for 80gbps per fiberoptic cable.

Should be plenty of backhaul bandwidth available in that case.

With fiber you just have to upgrade the end components, the OLT and ONT. The fiber inbetween is still useful, so current GPON speeds of 2.4/1.2gbps can be upgraded to 40/40gbps with just upgrading the end equipment.

I'm sure the isp's will still only enable 1 upload stream still with the new protocol??

It's because the ISP you went with aren't buying enough bandwidth

I heard the modems they're already installed could do docsis 3 or 3.1 so they may never have to upgrade them for a while. 10gbps downloading is already so fast that you'll barely have the opportunity to enjoy how fast your file is downloading, it will just be done.

4.2-4.4MB/s
about 35mbps

Not surprised since I'm in the US.

>>The current setup is costing $30billion

watch this video

But I'm with the same ISP on wireless and there is no problem.

You can't tell me they favour mobile phones over dedicated wired connections in the current year.

FUGGING NORMIES AND THEIR PHONES

Modems should be fine, but modems are dirt cheap, the upgrade would need to come to the fiber backhaul, and OLT's aren't particularly cheap. GPON OLT's are ~$1200-1500. with GPON ONT's costing around $70-150.

NG-PON2 OLTs aren't on the market currently but I wouldn't be shocked at $5,000+ currently with NG-PON2 ONT's probably over $500.


So while the customer modem can handle the speeds, the backhaul fiber would need some expensive upgrades before it could handle faster speeds.

>$56 billion
Fuck me, didn't realise it was that bad

Honestly a lot of it is because you've dicked around and changed the plan several times.

If you had just gone full FTTH or FTTC minimally from the start you wouldn't be in this shit, but FTTN and fixed wireless is just fucking silly.

Meant to be to

yeah but if they have to send preet out to replace all the modems it will take years so anything they can leave in place is great

a lot of people were only going to get fixed wireless from the start, it was always the plan for rural cunts

JUST

For rural it makes sense, it's when I see suburbanites 5-10 miles from city centers getting faster speeds over fixed wireless than their copper dedicated line. It's crazy. Fixed wireless makes sense for rural areas, not so much anywhere else.

it's already happened in the US mainly. So many people only have cable TV for the live sports broadcasts, but youtube TV and other online streaming services are making that no longer necessary.

Once you get 50-100mbps+ to everyone they'll quickly realize streaming is 10x better than scheduled programming on your TV.

BTFOd, how will malcom recover?

The idea that we were going to have fibre to every home 3 years from now was absurd from the start

slimy labour will do and say whatever they want to get votes
suddenly they love homosexuals etc, no one is impressed by their dual citizen witch hunt

they get a free pass now for promising this shit because people just assume it would have gone well, our internet infrastructure is irreperably fucked from this socialist overreach, and the socialist overreach is at the core of the entire thing. No institution is ever improved through socialisation. If anyone votes for labour thinking it will be made better is a retard. The classic "answer to socialism is more socialism"

s he's a jew?

Lol, so you REALLY think private enterprise would do Australia a better deal...?

>their dual citizen witch hunt
lmao

Always wondered what was in those grey things

australia has exceptionally low population density it's a waste of time to compare it to europe

...

>No institution is ever improved through socialisation

it's pretty good for health care

I know you'd be able to pay for it and have it work

I literally couldn't bribe anyone to get me internet atm. It's literally a bunch of blame games and deflections. Our postal services and public transport is also going down the shitter. Somehow I can pay an ethnic to bring me food or pick me up and drive me somewhere within minutes but if I need something important delivered with auspost it takes weeks within the same state or if I need to ride a bus it may never show up. NBN is just another chapter to the socialist shitshow

We're fucked.

>I know you'd be able to pay for it and have it work
Alright, $8,000 per km from the closest node. Pay up front.

...

see
and NG-PON2 can work with GPON assuming you install filters on the fiber. So they can upgrade the network to NG-PON2, keep existing GPON functionality, and upgrade downstream OLT/ONTs for areas that need the NG-PON2 bandwidth.

be less indoctrinated please

your made up number is too low but the ISPs would own the cable anyway and pay for it by harvesting monthly payments

instead of some weird questionable shit where the government owned company "wholsales" capacity to private companies who bare no risk

be real thats not going to happen, many aussies will put up with slow speeds, drops outs and congestion for many a years before a pipe dream like that is done nation wide, we're so fucked, our pollies suck

you sure showed me

Guess it depends where you live, I was in charge of getting fiber installed at my work and we paid like $4,500 per km (it was only 2km) to lay fiber.

and I doubt the ISP was doing us a favor on the pricing.

You're right I doubt it will, but that doesn't mean the network isn't set up so that it COULD be done.

NBN originally wanted to base their network topology on the US's Verizon FiOS network which is GPON and is currently being upgraded to NG-PON2 backhaul over the next ~3 years.

Do you know what those grey things are called? I wanna read more about them

>2Gbps backhaul

lmao

CORD when.

...

>streaming
>not just downloading it then watching it later

oh yeah, cos ya don't own nuthin' goy
