[Foreigner]

In the internet speed race Australia comes in 60th place, 2 places behind NZ. Singapore is miles ahead:

The NBN is already out of date, but it's not too late to change course

Expensive
And have no choice

I live in Melbourne CBD and all we we can get is ADSL 2plus and it's hopeless !! Expensive

I pay $59 per month for unlimited data + phone line.

In Port Melbourne, I get 7.57Mbps down / 0.68 MBps up, ping 30mSec on ADSL2+.
Fortunately, TPG has just this week pulled their little blue cable into our MDF (for FTTB) so am looking forward to 90/35 (theoretically 100/40) speeds within the next couple of weeks (unlimited data + phone line + unlimited calls + 100 international minutes for $70 pm). Can't wait to jump!

In NY last week, TV ads offered 100/100 on fibre + phone + data + TV for $70 per month.

In Berlin same deal but 40 Euro .... Actually it was 120 MBPS down and 100 up

Such speeds leave most Australians in the dust

It's a national disgrace, makes us a second world country and should have spent the 9 billion on original NBN idea!

Still don't understand why the poorest suburbs get the NBN before the suburbs where people can afford it..... Other than they stuff it up no one sues or they can iron out the problems without out cry heard!

There are now plans with 200MBPS down! Deal is 20 Euro for 12 months then 40 after that.
