I don’t discuss FTTN on the blog, because it’s not one of the options currently on the table. There is no political party or Telso proposing it, so what’s the point?

You seemed to have missed Sunday, April 17, 2011 @ 9:05PMIn reply to The Seven Myths Of The NBN : You seemed to have missed commenting on two significant “myths”… 1. Lack of transparency - the Government having done everything in its power to ensure the Australian public is not fully informed of the case for the NBN and the financial costs, opportunity costs and risks that going with it? 2. Cost - both the staggeringly high forecast number and the ...
Perifidious, It is Sunday, April 17, 2011 @ 9:05PMIn reply to The Seven Myths Of The NBN : Perifidious, It is definitely possible for the backbone to ‘sell’ connection, and fibre is generally the best solution - the exception usually remote areas. But that is assuming that high-grade broadband is demanded by everywhere; it isn’t. In time, I believe it will become more popular for the home or business user - especially as people’s economic lives ...
Wireless, even 4G, will not Sunday, April 17, 2011 @ 9:05PMIn reply to The Seven Myths Of The NBN : Wireless, even 4G, will not be a substitute for fibre. Here in Perth I have 4G wireless as a stopgap and it’s not as fast as the ADSL2 + delivered through copper wires that I was using. I’ll probably be going back to those copper wires soon.
Sorry for the delay Invig, Sunday, April 17, 2011 @ 9:05PMIn reply to The Seven Myths Of The NBN : Sorry for the delay Invig, just back at the computer. Here’s my reply to your blog as requested: The NBN won’t be leaving copper “nodes” in place, because in many cases nodes don’t really exist. There are lines from exchanges to homes, sometimes going through joins, boxes, pits and/or cabinets. But there isn’t really a standard node system. With the NBN ...
NBN/Invig Just to throw in Sunday, April 17, 2011 @ 9:05PMIn reply to The Seven Myths Of The NBN : NBN /Invig Just to throw in my 2 cents on the technical aspects. I had a problem recently with my phone/ ADSL connection (non-Telstra ISP ) and it was a nightmare. Eventually we worked out that the Telstra line was OK and the problem was in the house cabling but it was certainly not as simple as has been suggested above. If you guys could work out a way ...
Excellent article, although Sunday, April 17, 2011 @ 9:05PMIn reply to The Seven Myths Of The NBN : Excellent article, although the final myth really ties in with the first myth; that private enterprise could do it better. Your ‘public interest’ point is spot-on, because for some players it just means more normal displays of competition are to be replaced with more overt forms of cooperation. However, for those who are polarised and paranoid, they would ...
Ah, it always comes back to Sunday, April 17, 2011 @ 9:05PMIn reply to The Seven Myths Of The NBN : Ah, it always comes back to the Pink Batts. One of the greatest case studies ever for free market champions. Obvious at the outset that it was going to end in disaster. Just a question of which form the disaster would take…. When I think Pink Batts I always think of the quote “Government is not the solution…..Government is the problem.”
I agree with everything you Sunday, April 17, 2011 @ 9:05PMIn reply to The Seven Myths Of The NBN : I agree with everything you say, the NBN is potentially the greatest piece of national infrastructure for the 21st century.

The biggest problem as I see it is the current Labor government ...

Thankfully community volunteers run a service so that we can pick up parcels from the local showground ...
I still think the main Thursday, February 17, 2011 @ 8:13PMIn reply to Australia Post Goes Postal : I still think the main question is whether post offices are to be seen, as I do, as a community, essential service and as such, the profit model should not rule supreme. Post Office assets- such as the buildings they were housed in, should never have been sold off to private ownership and this should have been entered into by way of contracts when ...
