Sometimes it's a good idea to read more than the headline before being a critic. The observatory isn't on the fixed line network.

The origin of the satellite network dates from Labor's time in office.The satellite system is part of the NBN and it's obviously not up to the required standard for this application.
So much for connecting remote areas to the NBN if you can't even do a teleconference with it. It's making us a laughing stock and will hamper future investment.

Jeez doc, don't say that, Rumpole and Tisme think the LNP are responsible for Labors brain fart.
Everyone is still wondering, why labor rolled it out to suburbs, where people couldn't afford internet in the first place.
It was rolled out to a group of units I'm involved with 3 years ago, I have'nt connected next door hasn't connected and the old lady in the end unit is now in a nursing home. So she hasn't connected.
It was dumb policy, rolled out to inappropriate locations with resulting poor uptake.
Why they didn't roll it out to the CBD's first, is beyond belief and now we are expected to take Labor seriously.
Andrews in Victoria has shown, they've learnt sod all, union hacks given free reign = disaster.IMO
The satellite network dates from Labor's time in office. That's a simple fact you could have found out for yourself prior to posting.Ah yes, the old LNP mantra.
BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR. BLAME LABOR.
When will this government take responsibility ? Never I think. It's always all LABOR'S FAULT.

You're also the one complaining about it.
The satellite program was well advanced by the time of the Turnbull government. The first satellite was launched on October 1 last year, shortly after Malcolm became PM.I'm complaining about the Turnbull government promising to "fix" Labor's so called stuff up, and then failing to do so.

You can stop digging now. In fact, I strongly encourage you to do so. You're way out of your depth on this topic.
One doesn't need to dig very far to uncover the dirt that Turnbull's NBN is. If you don't believe me, try the Fin Review.

Michelle Rowland is the opposition spokeswoman for communications.
How do you know what my thoughts are?
Just because you don't like a product doesn't mean the product is a dud....it points to your bias, poor choices, slavishness to the LNP and belligerence to change. This must be true because I said it, just like you say untrue things as if they are fact.... of course it could just be that you ARE A TROLL!!! (cue Noco LOL)
Your post is like a cliche : anti NBN, anti Labor, anti union, anti Andrews, anti competition, anti technology, anti Tisme, anti Rumpole...... there is nothing redeeming about your spit and vitriol, which kind of makes me think you have issues of self esteem... no really I think you have some pretty concerning baggage that will require getting over your negative self before you can accept adult guidance.
We're here for you sp, you can count on the elders to guide you through adolescence into manhood, leadership, benevolence and all those meritorious traits that makes a man a man's man. ... the kind of man that forgives stupidity of youth and looks only to enrich culture and manners.
Atta boy,
:
You've hit bedrock with that one.
What I posted back then was an opinion piece by the AFR. What you posted above and presented as the view of the paper was nothing of the sort. It was an opinion piece by the opposition spokeswoman for communications. If you can go back one page in this thread, you can read to the end of the articles you post.At least I quotes a piece by an identified individual unlike your quote of #4002 which was by "The Australian Financial Review". Why did they hide behind their masthead ?
And if you wish to dispute Michelle Rowland's opinion, please do so instead of just kicking the author in the shin.
I've had iinet ADSL with VOIP for many years now for $60. It too is a legacy plan but is broadly similar to their current $60 naked offering.My old Monthly plan was 100 GB for $76 p/m.
I am in a peri-urban suburb of Sydney and finally the NBN FTTN has been rolled out here.
7 years ago I could not even get ADSL. I had to go wireless and pay high costs. We were on what they call a "pair gain" system which could only allow a few ADSL connections.
Then Telstra must have laid some extra cables and we got ADSL2+. That was such a step up and it was quite reliable.
Today I had my NBN FTTN connected and I am getting very good speeds and I love it. I am grateful that the Government is building this network. I only wish that they had stuck to the original NBN that Labor Planned which would have been much better quality and future proofed.
My old Monthly plan was 100 GB for $76 p/m. Under the new NBN plan I get better speeds and it is unlimited and I have access to a VOIP fixed landline if I want it. (calls costs are extra but I do not use the land line.) So even saving money for a better service.
So all in all I am very happy with my NBN, glad that we got something even though it's not the best we could have had, cheers.
Bill, if you don't mind me asking, did you stay with Telstra
No, I changed over to TPG FTTN 25/5 plan. That costs me $69.99 P/M. After some initial connection problems it got sorted and now I am getting download speeds of between 23 to 24 MBPS. The tech guy said my line would handle 61 MBPS downloads max.
I just had a thought about my first ADSL connection about 16 years ago, cost me $86 p/m for 1 GB at a 1 MBPS download speed plus line rental. So costs have come down about 30% over the years.
