Looking for recommendations for an NBN RSP. We're in one of the last areas to be built out, and it's finally time to switch from ADSL to FTTN. We're only ~100M or so from the cabinet so I'm expecting a reasonable connection (as far as FTTN is 'reasonable'). If FTTN is not acceptable, you can now get an instant/free quote to upgrade to FTTP.

But for me the quote was $41K...
Ouch! perhaps I should contact my old land lord and enquire just how grateful he is that I added $41K to the value of his property ?:-) On the subject of money I notice Tim didn't seem particularly fussed by payment options; whereas for me post-paid bills, non direct debit options and quality of support were much more important aspects; but then I am an eccentric ! Even though fibre-to-the-foyer was available in this block of flats mid way through 2019; I didn't change from ADSL to NBN50 till midway through 2020. Actually I really only switched to my current "Retail Service Provider" RSP, Optus from the old one iPrimus, because iPrimus refused to host the domain on which my old email address was located. Support from both is not brilliant and seems to be in the Philippines; regards Rohan Mcleod
