I'm in Brunswick West myself and I just fall in the FTTP rollout area (yay!), the property behind me doesn't, so I got lucky

Lucky you!

So my current place in BWest is between Albion and Moreland. The place I'm looking at is south of Albion on the east side of Sydney road... so close, yet so so far.

So FTTN means I would "NBN" over copper to the home right? Boooo.

I've been seeing a bit of work being done around Albert St in 3BRU07. It looks like they're digging out and installing new pits and redoing the asphalt sidewalks, and sitting around eating. Mostly just sitting around eating in groups really.

Expected date is still April 2015, while 3BRU08 is getting pushed back a month.

OMG we bought a place today in a "Build commenced" area of Brunswick :D
Not the one I mentioned a couple of posts above � decided that was going to go for too much and went with this other options :D Very happy right now!

So "build commenced" should mean FTTH I assume? Not node? The NBN co website said building commenced in Nov 2013, which seems like a long time, so I guess it might be ready soonish (fingers crossed).

Yeap FTTH. 3BRU07 and 3BRU08 have been pushed back for a few years now because most of the lead in conduits are old/blocked/too small to feed fibre down so they need to be relaid as well as the poor quality of most of the pits.

Depending on which area you're in, I think 3BRU07 is ahead in the timetable, you can expect it mid next year.

Cheers mate. Looks like I'm 08.

I called NBN co today, lady said she can no longer see for sure expected rollout, but suggested November this year with the potential for early next year.
I then called iiNet and the guy told me it will be available within a month...

Sounds like both are talking BS.

They are definitely talking BS. BRU08 isn't due to be ready until June 2015 at the earliest, but expect that to be pushed back a couple of months.

Thanks mate! Guess I'd better look at some interim ADSL :)

You must be right near me. It killed me when I discovered that the Brunswick West roll-out, promised for so long, didn't actually include the MLN exchange people like us :(

Got 100mb Cable while i wait so, im not in a rush no more :)

I just moved into my unit in Brunswick West in July... at the time I was told that no NBN available (Telstra, sigh) and found out today that it's been ready for service since January.

I'm waiting on a call back from my REA as to getting permission from landlords for installation (I made it clear I will be paying for it) � but can someone dumb down for me exactly what kind of hardware would be installed internally/externally? FWIW I'm ground floor unit on Brunswick Road.

if it is FTTH there should be no charge for the NBNCo equipment only for any RSP routers that they want you to use

Any one else just have a 10 minute NBN outage ? both our NBN providers were down in Brunswick. All back up now.

No, but I (also in Brunswick) had one that lasted rather longer than that on Thursday 11th Sept. from about 8pm onwards. My RSP told me that there was an NBN outage 'in Victoria'. I suspect it was more local, as if it had been Victoria-wide, I'm sure someone would have posted about it here.

I don't know how long it lasted as I gave up and did other things. It was fine the next morning.

Brunswick Tuesday night.. No internet and phone for two hours. Phone still doesn't work but internet fine.

Brunswick Tuesday morning: switched on at 8.30 am, no internet but phone working (UNI-V). Internet came back on around 11 am.

They're rolling fibre outside on Dawson Street today for 3bru-08. It's so close yet so far with an RFP date of June '15. Maybe they'll be under promising and over delivering?

Fibre installing in Napperby St near Victoria St. Getting close for us. Noticed that the date of activation has blown out again

Just got a letter in the mail today saying contractors will be installing the PCD between late November and late January in 3BRU-07, good news.

Identical issue this morning. So far with 3 outages lasting several hours over the last 2 months, NBN is proving far less reliable than ADSL+.

Hi fellow Whirlpoolians.

I've got a son who has moved into an MDU on Park Street, Brunswick. He is on an ADSL with plan Internode. He's getting about 22Mbps to the connection outside the MDU (as advised by Internode) but, presumably because of poor copper wiring through the building, he's only getting about 2Mbps at the modem. The connection is very unstable although he's changed his profile to ADSL1 to try an get a more stable connection.

Internode have advised that the NBN is a couple of months away. There are no NBN NTDs installed in the Building.

What's the best way to find out the progress of NBN installation to his MDU please? Who is the contractor for doing the MDUs in this area? Is it worth contacting them direct? How do I work out which FSAM he is on? Any suggestions for finding out progress of an NBN connection would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

JXeeno has extracted and arranged NBNCo data into a usable form

As to this info no idea, but I guess that your ISP/RSP is the only gateway to any of that info unless you know someone on the ground doing the work in that area

Thanks D&C. I was able to determine the FSAM from JXeeno's site.

I have seen in other threads were people have said that they contacted the contractor looking after MDU deployments directly. Sometimes the contractor is the best source for the most accurate info.

Has anyone got any thing to report on progress of NBN installations in MDUs in the Brunswick area, particularly FSAM 3BRU-03. I'm just wondering if any MDUs are being connected to NBN or is nothing being done.

Cheers

Jav

Fingers crossed, my mixed resi/commercial MDU in 3BRU-03 gets connected tomorrow, after 13 months of chasing NBN and Downer over hither and yon to get it done.

I'm hopeful, but not convinced that it will actually work � using the devotednbn.com/sq service quali tool, my commercial address shows active and available, but the resi units aren't reporting as ready, NBN don't think it is connected (but their data may be out of date they admit), and a couple of weeks ago, the NBN/Downer guys were working the pits swearing about the lack of space available to run the main fibre line.

I've had the PCDs installed for about 14 months, and active service has remained "in the next 4-6 weeks" since January this year. We've had delayed QA checks, multiple rounds of "augmentation", a complete lack of information throughout the process (although the NBN staff have always been helpful, but I get the impression their systems simply don't actually have any information to give out)

I guess we'll see � just getting this far has taken a lot of persistence, and phone calls every two weeks to NBN, Downer (and Telstra via a contact, who seem to actually have decent data available).

Thanks for that mattrg, although it doesn't make me hopeful that my son will see anything at his address any time soon.

multiple rounds of "augmentation",

By the way what does augmentation mean with the NBN?

Cheers

Jav

Augmentation seems to be a catch all phrase meaning "we forgot to do a bit" � the fibre wasn't run from the street cabinet, someone forgot to connect the PCD lead in to the main cable, we forgot to tag the lead ins correctly, we only did half the PCD installs the first time around, etc.

It's NBNs way of dodging a completion date....

Well, I've got an NTD installed now. But no pretty red light.

Turns out that none of hte PCD lead-ins are connected in the pit to the MSS and onwards, despite the seven visits to get it done that have happened so far...

Thanks again for the explanation of "augmentation". Maybe you should pass it onto the person(s) that did the seven visits.

Yay they are installing in my street as we speak... across the road, with the even numbers.

I went over and chatted to the installer guy yesterday, he said he didnt have the odd numbers on his list to do, and it might be another company later on. Doh!

Yay they are doing my side of the street today!

Wooooooo!

Yay they are doing my side of the street today!

Woooo the box is on the side of my house!

Just spoke with the guys installing the NBN on Victoria St and was told it would be ready in 2 weeks. Of course I would take that date with a grain of salt

Same thing I was told, despite the box now being on my house.

Time to start plan shopping :D

They where doing percy street last night.

Seen any further work been done near the corner of Melville and Victoria street? I believe fibre has been rolled out few months ago on our street. Also any one seen MDU installed at 3BRU-07?

I saw them at the corner of Frederick and Hope street today.

Yeah it's going to take some sort of negotiation because I'm currently on a grandfathered plan

Our MDU has not been connected yet but my understanding is that it will be real soon.

Thanks Dazzy15, just wondering do you mean you have MDU installed already at 3BRU-07? If the answer is yes, how do I go about getting the process started? When I esquire about MDU for our apartment with iinet. The response was "wait till the build has finished than give us a call." I guess from there iinet will initiate the entire connection process?

MDU is Multi Dwelling Unit � probably a new definition of apartment block. We had some survey people come in yesterday to assess where they are going to place the boxes. Guess now we just wait now on NBN Co to write to us before we ring Tel$tra to get it connected.

Just received a letter from TPG. I would say the ISP war has begun

Hey all,

We're about to move into a newly built apartment building in Brunswick (there are already tenants in the other units). It has the NBN box inside the apt already but www.nbnco.com.au and tpg are both saying NBN is not available.

Anyone have any idea how long it usually takes to become available etc?

Here is my experience getting my NBN MDU connection in Brunswick: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pusczmng_0Lt_2VREEdlNuDaynhqZjgr9x4bbp8Q7Cs/edit?usp=sharing

I've had a PCD outside my unit since March. Finally got connected 3 weeks ago. Never got the mythical letter from NBNco telling me my place was ready to go.

Just got lucky checking the various online service checkers and the Devoted NBN site said it was available so rang up Internode and boom, I got hooked up with an installation appointment.

Also the NBNco site still says that there is an issue at my address. Ringing NBNco didn't really seem to achieve anything for me. Just keep checking online every few weeks.

Just called NBN Co and they said that work isn't completed and they couldn't give me an eta.

I'm guessing that new apartment buildings don't have phone lines so I can't even go for ADSL.

Called Telstra and was told the ETA for 3-BRU-07 is March 31. Don't think this will be a definite date though.

Does anyone know what's happening in the Brunswick West area?

They pulled the fibre from the street to my house today and installed the outside box.

Anyone else had NBN contractors do a shoddy job with the installation in Brunswick?

This is off Hope St between Austral and railway.

Got a call from the supervisor asking to dig on property etc and promised to remediate it afterwards. All fine. Two nice young blokes turn up a week later to run the cable from the pit and install the box on the house.

Left the concrete smashed up down the side of the house. The footpath out front was pathetically re-tarred, a lot of it up on my fence somehow, and the tar is already washing away.

NBN aren't falling over themselves to come and clean up. If it was Telstra I'd expect all this. I had to call them repeatedly to remove asbestos from up and down the street after they broke open the pits a year ago to start this whole sad process.

The whole block of flats I'm in was just wired up with each flat having an NBN box outside the living room windows.

So surprised, was expecting to have to nag the landlord to get to this stage!

(Brunswick West north of Dawson St)

About a month or so ago I had someone install PCD outside of my house. I was worried he wouldn't be able to run the fibre through the small non standard lead-in from the pit but he was able to feed it through thankfully.

Anyways, the PCD was installed and he had looped some cable around the box which I assume would be fed into the house to the NTD at a later date. About a week or two later however I came home from work and noticed the cable looped around the box was gone from the front of the house.

Did he come back and remove it? Did some passer by take it to use as a belt? I haven't had any contact from NBN since and haven't seen any work going on in surrounding streets.

No it is all ok, the second part of their job is to put the fibre inside the box. Then later the 'inside' tech does the install.

Which Brunswick areas are being installed at the moment?

Last action I saw on Victoria St was just before Christmas. Been quiet ever since. I believe some places have received a box. My MDU has not.

Pre Chrismas we got a letter from NBN contractor � Downer EDI Engineering asking for visual inspection of the property (an apartment block consist of six units close to Seven Eleven). I (body corp secretary) rang them saying access will not be an issue. Till today, we (all tenants) have not seen a thing.

We received out outside boxes yesterday in our Victoria St MDU near Melville Rd. Hopefully it will not be too much longer for you

Anymore updates?

Anymore updates?

Just had a look on mynbn.info and they are reporting an expected date of March 20. I was supposed to get a call from Telstra yesterday but never happened (surprise surprise)

I'm on Pearson St which is shown on the maps as the border between BRU-07 and BRU-08. So the other side of the street is supposed to get connected on march 20 while my side waits till June. I'm hoping as my PCD was installed in december that the whole street gets included in the March 20 release

What does this March 20 actually mean though? Is it when all the street work is done, or when all the internal stuff is installed and ready to go?

I called NBN Co and was told it will be activated on March 20th

I'm guessing its when the street work is done, because there's no way they can do NTD installs in close to 2000 houses in the 4 weeks they have left. As far as I've seen they've installed PCDs but not much else, in fact I haven't seen any work done since December.

I'm hoping I can be connected by mid year, and that I don't get messed around too much by the contractors that install the NTD. I've been mentally preparing for it for 2 years now.

Finally got my service active and ready to sign up. I've got the fibre connection already to the apartment and signed up with TPG. Far as I can tell I just need the connection box and the power supply � anyone have a rough idea how long it takes for the techs to come out if it's a simple (maybe?) job like that?

Brunswick apartment resident here. Took me 4 months for that "simple" install.

Ughhhhh

Appointments set for a month away.. lets see if they turn up or not.

My NTD was installed on 17/02, Optus modem delivered on 19/02 but still no NBN. Apparently the install is recorded as "incomplete" at NBN Co and hasn't been activated.

Next appointment is now 10/03.

It's all sitting there installed and connected, they just need to activate it. So frustrating.

Probably been asked 1000 times but why does the Ntd installation need a tech in the first place? Couldn't they make one box that functions as the modem with backup power etc and send it directly to customers?

The PCD install is only fibre to the PCD (grey external box). The tech has to run additional fibre from the PCD to the internal location, then join the fibre to the ntd ingress point. So sadly not as straight forward as it could be

My ntd went in in October last year. It's sitting there with a red light just waiting.... One day my office will get NBN but after 17 months, two weeks is a mere blip in the install timeframe...

Received a phone call this week from the "NBN Command Centre" notifying us of the pending disconnection of the copper phone lines, and to make sure we have changed phones / fax lines over. No sales, just purely a info call.

Was impressed that NBN (or their contractor) are actually calling people.

The deadline for our chunk of Brunswick is in about 4 weeks, but as we've discovered in other parts of Brunswick it's not a hard switch off on that day. More of a arbitrary disconnection date.

3BRU-07 has gone RFS! Get your green lights on!

It's ready for service! TPG took my order this morning.

So the houses across the street are now showing as RFS using internodes coverage checker. My side of the street is showing as under construction, looks like a 3 month wait :(

Just place my order with iinet to have NTD (network termination device) install. Been advised the next available date for the install (by NBN) not till end of April. No firm date can be set.

We've got a red optical light fault on out NTD this morning.

Any one else have a NBN outage in Brunswick?

We've got a red optical light fault

Hi mavrick9,

A red optical fault is almost certainly a problem with your NTD, a break in the fibre cable into your building, or a fibre fault somewhere upstream. It's not an outage, it's a fibre fault. Sucks!

Any one else have a NBN outage in Brunswick?

All (or most) of our customers in Brunswick are online and working, so it's not a network-wide fibre fault. If you haven't done so already, you should call Support and lodge a fault. They can lodge the fault with NBN Co and also book the next available appointment for you.

With red optical lights, they don't need to wait until NBN Co confirms there's a fault, they can book the next available appointment without waiting for them to reply.

Thanks, Paul

I've had a red optical light since November... still no-one owning up the fault, despite a heap of visits by every man and his dog.

Apparently NBN think it's the NTD install, so iiNet are promising a tech next week. My money is on the pit connection � one of the other apartments at the site has a green optical light but is unable to connect either for some reason.

Is this somewhat 'business as usual'? (refer to last paragraph)

Background, March 20th, my area of Brunswick West got the all clear for signups. I went through the process (iiNet) on the phone a few days afterward and got an install appointment for March 30th/Monday this week between 8am and midday.

No-one turned up and upon calling iiNet just after midday they discovered on the NBN's systems that my appointment was reserved but had not been acknowledged (or words to that effect). Was promised a call back within 24-48 hours and didn't get one.

So just called back today and the iiNet rep said that NBN still had some work to do on my property (it's a block of flats, all the exterior equipment has been in place for a few months) and that NBN don't really provide many details (like hold ups/issues with regards to infrastructure) to iiNet re: installation appointment.

I'm not having a crack at iiNet, but I find it really odd that there's a distinct lack of communication between NBN and the ISP in this regard, and similarly, if there's still work to do (infrastructure?) why on earth was I able to sign up for it in the first place?

I think they are having big issues with MDU's.

Our area 3BRU-05 went RFS 27 Sep 2013 and have watched houses in the area get connected since then.

Early January this year our townhouse complex was notified we could now order services.
So we put in an order early Jan and was given an ETA of February.
Soon after placing the order a guy came around who said he was going to install the PCD but he never did.
Another guy (I guess NTD installer?) turned up on the February appointment date and said the PCD has not been installed so he cannot do his work.

Some other guys came around a few days later and said they would schedule the PCD's to be installed. We were given a Primary Resolution Date of 16/3/2015.
One of the townhouses in the complex had their PCD installed but the guys then realised there was no fibre pulled through the pits in the complex.

We now have no Primary Resolution Date (actually it says 01/01/2020 hehe) and the copper is supposed to be cut off in the area 17th April � which sounds unlikely to happen if other premises are also still waiting for installation.

You would think, since they are obviously understaffed due to the long appointment date,s that they would want to fix their internal communication and tracking so installers don't have to waste their time turning up to an appointment only to find the premise is not serviceable!

http://www.mynbn.info/fsam/3BRU-07#stats

I probably live in the same area, mine went live on the 20th of March. It wasn't allowing me to sign up online to the internode or iinet NBN plans saying my area wasn't yet connected, so I waited a few days and called.

The earliest possible NTD install quoted by the internode support was May 15th, that's a little over 7 weeks.

I'd guess some issue happened between you phoning and me phoning that forced installs to be further pushed back.

Says the majority are serviceable (say 90%) yet no one is connected yet.

So is anyone in 3BRU08 here connected yet?

I also live in Brunswick West and when i moved into the area i got Bigpond Cable.
I was also told, more than once that when NBN was available that we would be changed over automatically.

I guess thats not happening then.

Our copper was disconnected this week, (had previously ported to Voip), so now we are Telstra free! Great feeling. (Albeit Telstra did the construnction in Brunswick and still own pits and pipes � funny that � you can't escape.)

Fast fibre 100/40 access and full voip phones, with call routing etc. Thanks NBN.

Remember that you can run adsl and NBN at the same time.

Might be worth activating the NBN service with one of the no contract providers, on the lowest plan � I think it's $29pm with SM or iiNet have a slightly higher plan.

It won't affect your Telstra service.

Then it's installed and you have a active NTD. Then cancel in a month. Wait till your Telstra contract is nearly up (allow a little overlap).

Then call your preferred RSP (Not Telstra) and ask them to activate a service on the NTd, (takes less than a hour).

So has anyone been given an installation date with TPG in bru-7 yet? I signed up 3 weeks ago and still haven't heard anything yet.

I wouldn't worry about this too much. I asked a local Telstra tech today and he estimates about 30% of the copper lines in areas of Brunswick where the copper has been "turned off" are still active. The copper turn off dates are all marketing spin.

Got mine installed today on BRU-07. With TPG on 100/40 plan. Getting 10 Mb download and about 3.6Mb upload.

How long was the process? Was it the stated 4 hours or nowhere near it?

nah, nowhere near. Was all done in 1.5 � 2hrs. It was a simple install though, the 2 internal boxes were installed on the exact opposite side of the PCD. I can imagine though if you had to run cable in the walls that it would take longer.

"Got a call from NBNCo yesterday who confirmed installation date of 20/4. Signed up with TPG on 18/03."

Considered yourself lucky, signed up with iinet (am an existing customer for 8 years on adsl 2), the scheduled date was 30th of April. iinet called again a weeks later, re-booked it on 19th of May, they stated it is not their end, is NBN tech availability.

iinet called me again, saying there is an appointment available on the 15th of April. Which I locked it in on my diary. The iinet representative said "you will get a text msg" for your booking confirmation. That never came. So two days later, I rang iinet. They said I did not confirm with them by phone. So, the date is still 19th of May for the NTD install.

NBN called on the 21st of April, saying there is an appointment available on the 11th of May which I "locked" it in my diary. But, I am not confident the install will be on time or yet again gets shuffle along.

Well I'm pleased to report that my son had his NBN installation in a MDU in the Brunswick area (FSAM 3BRU-03) completed on the 23rd. With the arrival of a modem today from PC Case Gear he is now connected at 25/5. He tells me that he can watch YouTube without it buffering!

Living in an area in the ACT that was slated for FTTP build to commence last year and is now not even on the FTTN map (which isn't necessarily a bad thing mind you as we might still get fibre to the home if there is a change of government) I continue to put up with my 2.71Mbps down and 0.71Mbps up (just tested then) on ADSL1 and I am deeply jealous.

've just had a phone call this morning from iiNet saying NBN-side issues are sorted and was given a very similar install date.

Wrote this last month, got a call last week saying I could have my appointment moved to an earlier date (today) between 1 and 5pm.

Techie has 30 min to arrive within the three-times-confirmed timeframe.
