The Internode sales guy insisted that I would have to hire my own cabling contractor should there be any issues with cabling between my house and the Node. I tried to explain to him that currently Telstra maintain the wires all the way to the socket on the wall but he kept saying that they wouldn't do that. Well, it's not quite true as some of the wires are now actually NBN wires but when the Telstra Tech's have been here before to fix issues and they test all the bits between the socket on the wall down to the node and then to the exchange.
I may have confused 'kindness' for 'service' above. I think the Telstra Tech. I've been dealing with has just 'lent a hand' and fixed my socket on the wall. I'm beginning to think that the Network Boundary Point has always been a termination either somewhere on the outside of the house or on the yard/street boundary somewhere.
A quick update. I've gone with ABB. They are great to deal with. I've also located the Network Boundary Point on my barge boards. I'm yet to re-cable my internal wiring to minimise the copper and maximise the speed. Will get connected next Tuesday but my official termination date is this Friday. It remains to be seen if I have to hotspot over 3G until then. With luck the termination will be delayed until the NBN is connected. -- Tom Robinson 19 Thomas Road Mobile: +61 4 3268 7026 Healesville, VIC 3777 Home: +61 3 5962 4543 Australia GPG Key: 8A4CB7A7 CONFIDENTIALITY: Copyright (C).
