Yes, certainly have. I dont think all the Nodes are on there though. Might have to go for a walk.
Does anyone know where the nodes are in 5REL-03?
5REL-03 is a big area, sounds like you're talking Hallett Cove though.
I'm in Sheidow so 5REL-03-06 is my baby, corner of Robinson St and Holdfast Dr. There's one immediately around the corner from it in Holdfast Dr just near Steamranger Dr, not sure which one as it's not mine so haven't taken a look ;)

This is mine also. As you said the node cabinet is marked 5REL03-06 and there is a pillar right next to it marked P188 on the corner of Robinson St and Holdfast Dr. Thursdays the day for me, hopefully it all goes smoothly.
Getting connected today, lost dsl on the modem at 9am this morning. As of 12:30 still don't seem to have any connection, how long should it take to change over?
I was told to discconect modem incase you block port?
Suprised you still had it connected on cut over date?

Took 10 minutes on each of my lines, different days. You might want to get onto it ASAP so they fix it sooner.

If you modem supports both it should be fine
I was online when it dropped, then changed the settings. Using the Fritz 7390, so it is meant to be on on fttn. Just a matter of getting the right config maybe. Rang iiNet but 40 min wait, so expecting a call back.

Mine is next Thursday as well. Will be interested to see the stats of our connections when we go live.
After a couple of hours on the phone it appears we have a fault of some sort. Just have to wait to get an appointment to investigate. Bloody wonderful!
Today was my connection date
Starting getting texts and emails lunch times saying i was provisioned and NBN live
Arrive home and still have dial tone and can get adsl, ring internode and after explaining they agreed doesnt sound right. Lodged a fault with wholesale
He either didnt show or jumped the wrong pair
Que the benny hill music
He either didnt show or jumped the wrong pair
Que the benny hill music
This is starting to sound way to common.
Got a shipping notice for my router from Internode earlier with a commitment of Monday.
Cutover still scheduled for Tuesday.
Plus the actual router I will use once service is confirmed with the TG1 is due to arrive Tuesday.
I have both pairs terminated in my rack so I'm covered if NBN use the wrong one.
This is starting to sound way to common.
Two in a row in this thread it looks like. In an ideal world they'd spend an extra 10 minutes and go to the house to make sure it's the same line rather than having to go back later
I'm re-booked for monday after my first date was a no-show. If this also doesn't happen I'll strongly suspect that my node isnt actually rfs and this is stalling tactics. It does seem to be happening far too often.
Did they try and tell you at any stage your nbn was actually
Provisioned?
I dont think all the Nodes are on there though. Might have to go for a walk.
If you go to the finder website or nbn rollout website first and type in your address the info you will get will have an 'ADA' number on it something like: 5REL-03-** this is the 'Node ID', once you know what the ID is then you can set about finding it.
Just be aware that the cable route between your property and the node is not necessarily the shortest route..
Cheers
Ernie
I, too, am waiting for a connection.
Applied with iinet on Friday 22nd.
Got my modem on Thursday the 28th.
Have an appt on the morning of Wednesday the 10th of August.
I found some helpful info here,
https://www.mybroadband.communications.gov.au
I put my address in and found the boundaries of my distribution area.
I had already seen the nbn equipment being installed on Cappella Drive just west of Perry Barr rd. Near the bus stop. But I still don't know my cable length from the adjacent pillar.
Cheers

My ID is 5REL-03-15
Soo instead of being like all the cool kids playing Pokemon Go, I am going to find my Node lol
I am going to find my Node lol
I sure I saw a node coner capella and perry bar, there is slso a node on barramundi near the round about. Not that familiar with thst side
I'm do disappointed that 5REL-03-01 has literally vanished. NBN are now saying construction hasn't even started!
Are you happy? What is your distance from the node?
The node is around 250-300m from our house (in a direct line). Unsure of cable distance.
Was expecting it to be faster tbh. The numbers I quoted were from the router (maybe that's the sync speed?). I signed up for the iiNet 100mbps service and on speedtest.net I only get around 45mbps in the tests. Latency is only 9ms though, which should be great for gaming.
I called Adam Internet today and cancelled my WiMax connection. As I just paid the renewal on the 28th they told me I'll get a refund for the balance remaining. Was pretty surprised at that one to tell you the truth. Happy I've finally ditched WiMax though.
Edit: According to the following graph it seems the numbers I'm seeing are to be expected:

Edit: According to the following graph it seems the numbers I'm seeing are to be expected:
Great! As long as its an improvement (& you aren't paying for a service that can't be possible).
As for actual cable distance from the node, the Tech showed me their app during my installation, which shows a cable length (No idea how it is worked out). I am 70ish metres from the node, but the actual cable lenght was 290 metres.
So 2pm has passed and still no nbn here... My app time was 7am-2pm. Second app in a row. No calls/email/text to advise of a cancelled app(again) perhaps they're just running a little late.
It has just connected, i rang up as when i got home and there was no connection. I called TPG as i was suppose to be connected between 8:00-12:00. They are the worst for customer techinical support as i just wanted to double check my settings. All the bloke said was plug in your TPG modem and it will work, I am using a ASUS AC68U and he refused to give me any settings. Anyway up and running speed results here for 25/5: Connecting at 57916kbps down and 38114kbps kbps up.

Bit of difference between the 2 peed tests but anyway seems pretty snappy, pages load instantly. Lets see what the kids say when they get home and give it a good flogging.
F u c k e d over again. Nbn weren't aware they had an app for me today. I can see it in my portal via iiNet! Absolutely fuming. I just called my our local MP and they will contact nbn. I'm not confident though. The man did not seem at all confident about any of the terms apart from the word nbn. So I do t hold my breath.
There must be some sort of penalty to iiNet and nbnco for this level of flapheadedness? FUMING.
Seems like there is a monopoly going on with NBN, my previous Aussie owned provider could not even connect me and other providers the connections are being delayed and now i have to put up with shit support from overseas to get connected and cant support the local guys. God help me when everything turns pear shaped. Lucky everything worked out and whirlpool forum gave me the settings i needed so i could use the hardware i wanted as obviously my provider knows zip. Dont worry bud you will be online soon. All you can do is shame the bastards when things go wrong, I dont think your MP will do anything as you will be connected before they get off their ass and do something.
Nbn not coming out until next monday after last weeks failed appointment. Internode treated me like a mushroom, kept in the dark and fed me you know what.
bureaucracy Gone mad with all the red tape.
whatever happened to you f&ck it you fix it, people can live
With mistakes but its how you recover that matter
No internet access whatsover, no modem , no customer service- they just want to get you off the phone and onto the next call. Internode just dont care anymore... At least thats the perception which is really what matters these days
My router didn't arrive today. Well I thought it had, but turned out the delivery was a DLink Taipan I bought separately (this will be the actual route I use long term).
Not Internode's fault though � they sent it when they said they did and the courier acknowledges it was meant to be delivered today, but for some reason when it arrived in Adelaide early this morning it stayed at their depot and still has a delivery date of today.
Crossing my fingers it arrives in time for my install tomorrow afternoon.
Anyone have the latest on 5REL-03 for either the node on Kallamurra or Neeangarra St (not sure which I'll be on)?
RFS was supposedly 22nd of July and I did sign up with Internode online already, however haven't heard anything yet and the NBNco website still says not available when I check my address on Perry Barr Rd.
Anyone have the latest on 5REL-03 for either the node on Kallamurra or Neeangarra St (not sure which I'll be on)?
I may be on the Kallamurra one, but I haven't checked. I have signed up with TPG and the install is set for the 8th, next Monday.
So I just got a call back from TPG after they called me a few days ago informing me the NBN was not yet available despite NBNCO and NBN Finder saying it is in my area.
They called me to give me the same info as above, again.
They then told me perhaps to try ANOTHER provider, whom may supply NBN in my area.
Errr??? So, what, TPG wont provide it but someone else may?
My install date has been delayed to the 23/08 :(
So I'm within 400m walking distance of 3 nodes (one is within 170m) but Internode has advised me that my line length is 700m.
Yeah, okay.

Mine is 70 metres walking and 290 copper length. Do you think they just run these line straight from the pillar to your house?
I may be on the Kallamurra one, but I haven't checked. I have signed up with TPG and the install is set for the 8th, next Monday.
Just got an SMS saying my install date is the 17th (at this stage ... *cough*) =)
Dont know. Just following with Telstra. Only found out by checking my order status. Was meant to be this Thursday
Mine is 70 metres walking and 290 copper length. Do you think they just run these line straight from the pillar to your house?
Do you think that my entire street would appreciate that dogshit routing?
What are you trying to say?
Sorry to hear about all the appointment problems.
I reached a low point with WiMAX last night, 0.2 all night it was utterly unusable, so was very pleased my NBN appointment today occurred as scheduled.
Apparently I was the first on 5REL-03-06, though not surprised given I got my order in the second it went RFS a day early.
First problem was my internal sockets. Given I haven't had a phone service in whole time I built that house, I had to pay for a brand new installation � Internode specifically said right to the socket, even though I argued I already had internal wiring albeit never used. So taking advantage of this I ran pull strings and notes through my roof so the service could be run direct to my rack. No go � NBN guy insisted he was only resonsible to the boundary.
Second problem was my second pair. When I tested my pairs a few weeks back I found the main one was dead as a doornail, but the second one which was wired to my office years back for a (failed) work connection had power on it (no dial tone though). Given we all have a theory here that some peoples failed installs might have been to the wrong pair, I had a feeling the tech would find my second pair connected somewhere (since there is power on it) and use that. Sure enough the service is indeed on that because he argued the it had to be in my office socket, which is the second line, not the kitchen socket because "that line was terminated" (ironic thing to say during a $275 reconnection!).
Now during both of the above he made it clear that I could simply reschedule when I've sorted out what I want, so I backed down and let him continue on as I can't cope with WiMAX anymore. Besides, until I can get a new run to my rack I'll pop the kitchen socket off the wall and terminate the other pair. Hell I think that run might even reach my rack, albeit I still need to get a whole new run because he way that second line was split off is not going to play nice with NBN).
Anyways after all the above, and more (he had to go back to the pillar a few times), apparently it's all good now. Router plugged in and apparently connected.
The wife was facilitating all this so am eagerly on my way home now to check it out.... Sooooooo can't wait :)
After 15 minutes of troubleshooting lack of Internet I finally worked out why it was not working � whomever configured my Internode TG1 forgot to enable the PPP config. I'll relay that on when Internode call me back from the "more than 1 hour" queue I was waiting in.
My stats are as follows � very surprised given the shitty cabling in roof courtesy of the second line being done badly.

Yea, Telstra screwed up the appointment process with the NBN co. They had my appointment reserved for NBN, but never linked my account to the appointment. NBN then cancelled the appointment, Telstra realized their screw up, then re-booked me for the 23/08.
Not happy.
Do you think that my entire street would appreciate that dogshit routing?
What are you trying to say?
Sorry, I probably should have worded it differently.
I have seen a lot of blame given to ISP's, when in reality 95% of the project is out of their hands. While it seems to you that Internode are telling porkies, the truth of the matter is the details have been given to them from either NBN co or Telstra. When I had my install done, I was a tad suprised of the length as well (The NBN tech showed me the read out of his test app, which gives a lot of detail). But, he explained that these cables snake in and out of properties and up and down the street. When you step back and look at it, yes it is quite easy to add a lot of metres just in the way the cable runs.
the truth of the matter is the details have been given to them from either NBN co or Telstra
The problem with this is that 2 days ago when I called them they couldn't get the info from the NBN portal for whatever reason. Then yesterday they sent me a text telling me it is 700m, how do I know if they just figured that out by testing my line attenuation or not? Because if I had noise on my line because of my internal wiring it would increase my attenuation and look like I have a longer line if it was tested this way. 170m->700m seems a bit ridiculous as the pillar is directly next to the node.
The nbn tech I spoke to that did my cutover said it should be walking distance plus about 10 meters for your line length, he didn't seem to be too interested in checking my line length like your NBN tech did.
So, I'm booked for 7am-2pm today for try number three. So far nothing, but there's still 75mins to go.
Fingers crossed.
I have to wait another 3 weeks. :(
I actually think iiNet stuffed up my second appointment(and this one) similar to your Telstra story. in my portal it didn't and doesn't have the same info it showed for the first app. The first app NBN admitted to cancelling due to no tech time. The second one iiNet waffled about NBN partner accidentally cancelling the order before the day and not notifying them. Hong is I couldn't see the NBN confirmation in my portal for the second app, whereas I could for the first one.
I just saw on my portal that it's live. 60/20 is the sync and 52/20 is actual. According the NBN report. I haven't seen my actual modem stats, but I assume it's correct. Seems a bit below what my line length should provide(260m to my side of house), but still a huge jump from 4/1 I currently sync at.
So third time 'lucky' it was.
Yea, sounds very similar to the issue I had.
Oh well. At least I got the free 100/40 speedboost

What modem? TG-1 or other?

If anyone wants to buy a TG1 let me know � I only needed mine for the first 5 minutes to confirm service was fine before switching to actual one I bought, so it's brand spanking new.
5REL-01
Still no NBN.. Order placed 8 July, appointment was for 14 July. NBN cancelled and everything went haywire from there. Cabling issues, digging permits blah blah. New RFS date was 3/8 � yes today. Lo and behold, NBN changed their estimated RFS date AGAIN to 23 Aug. Freaking hell mate. What will it take to get nbn!
Ok, so I got on the NBN Friday, dropped out
After a couple of hours on the phone it appears we have a fault of some sort. Just have to wait to get an appointment to investigate.
So NBN guy came out today (is over from NSW coast to do the work) said I had not been connected correctly, the line was put into the wrong place, presume that may have mucked another household as well?! Now the wires are where they should be, I am connected.
Have been on the phone for hours on Friday and another 2-3 hours of my life wasted trying to get connected tonight. I think I have pick u a South African accent :P When I hung up from iiNet the status was that my modem is faulty and I was awaiting a call back from the fibre team tomorrow morning.
Although I had sync I got no internet traffic. After multiple discussions and config changes all i needed to do was say no to a username and password.
That info came from Whirlpool iiNet rep, not the support folks in South Africa that I have been talking to. Interesting to note that even though I rang and spoke about my Adam account and maintaining the VoIP and email address, I got a new VoIP number, so more phone calls to get the old one back.
Plus I was still being billed for the ADSL account, you need to ring up and request that be cancelled.
I would say I am within a couple of hundred metres of the node/pillar on Sunvalley Rd

Thanks for letting me know Telstra, but I already knew, and already spoke to a case manager.

If you can get your hands on one, I recommend trying a broadcom based modem to see if you can get a faster speed. The TG-1, although virtually featureless, is broadcom based.
Looks like mine might be screwed � no more ADSL but no NBN after re-configuring the modem.
Ironically Internode texted me a link to the guide of how to set up fritz box which 404's on their website
Guess I'll get some stuff done this weekend at least!

How close are you to the node?
They are very good speeds. Assuming 50/20 plan?
Plugged in my TG 1 modem this evening, modem cannot sync. Spent an hour with tech support they can't figure out what's wrong. NBN has to fix the issue, I was told that they do fix issues in the weekend. Hoping they will fix it soon.

Ha... sure they do. Mine was screwed up last Friday and I got the fault looked at on the following Wednesday. On the Friday I was told that within 24hours I would have an appointment to investigate. My issue was the wiring had been hooked up incorrectly at the pillar.
I suspect that mine would be a similar issue. Once they do the switch over of a connection to NBN the tech guy can visit the property to make sure the connection is OK. Unfortunately they are not doing it for the reasons best known only to NBN. This affects the end user, ISPs and NBN itself as they need to come back to fix it. Looks like NBN is turning into another Telstra.
Technician has just rocked
Fingers crossed
Connected but something doesnt seem right with speed

350 metres
Technician told me max attainable was 55000 down
2 points in house
Have tried the other one and it is only 2000 more in the up/down
Almost appears you are on a 25/10 plan.
I think we're on the same node, did he say that the line distance was 350 meters?
Because according to Internode my line distance is 700m and I'm fairly close to the node.
Agreed � looks more like you are on 25/5 plan
Answering Braedan's question from the top of the page � I am about 250m minimum from the node.
also my SNR � are: RCV 21; SND 18 and Line Attenuation RCV 14; SND 17
I did have excellent, 24/1 ADSL2 at the property (steamranger drive in sheidow park)
Can also vouch for the fritz!box 7490 � very nice little unit.
Almost appears you are on a 25/10 plan.
Max line rate and the sync changing between sockets would suggest it is line noise or a bad modem?
That isn't a 25 sync regardless, it should be 28/6.4
Modem could be the issue, as you said it was a cheap unit. I'd start there, whenever you get the new one. If it's still the same, looks like there might be a line issue whether it be internal or external.
If anyone wants to buy a TG1 let me know � I only needed mine for the first 5 minutes to confirm service was fine before switching to actual one I bought, so it's brand spanking new.

Blueberry rd?
He did say line distance althought i reckon it would be more. Im physically that close but understand line probably weaves in and out
If i was on wrong plan wouldnt max attainable still say 55000?
Using cheap tplink9970 as fritzbox not here yet
It uses the Broadcom BCM63381 so I wouldn't be suprised if it is faster than the Fritzbox unfortunately. Please let us know how you go.

Yep, did the tech come to your house?
I actually had to walk to the node and ask him why my speeds were slower than it should be and was told that 66mbit was 'good'. He didn't seem to want anything to do with testing my line distance or max attainable and drove off moments later :/

I think we both possibly have some internal wiring issues, I also have 2 sockets in the house.
Although mine is a lot better than yours, it's almost half of what I was expecting from my sub 200m distance from the node by road. Hopefully we can figure this out, I've asked Internode why my line distance is longer than expected. I'll PM you if they tell me any information about the copper routing.

I mean its better than the 0.3 i was getting but if i can get 50/20 then i think its worth pursuing

All you can really do at this point (aside from try the new modem) is to physically check the wiring into the house, make sure it really is the first socket and not an extension and to disconnect all other sockets leading off of it, it needs to be the shortest line possible. Here's a recent thread where someone improved their line speed a bit by tinkering: /forum-replies.cfm?t=2554924
I'd expect a lot better results from 350m and the poster above you with 200m, but unfortunately all you can do as long as you get 12/1ish is to improve your internal wiring, even by hiring a professional cabler. If you currently have two sockets still working there is something you can do since the second socket isn't needed and will likely reduce speeds
Just curious, have you guys seen any pillars upgraded from 900 pair to 1800 pair, even though there's no node connected to that pillar? What does that mean, does it mean they will connect that pillar to a node in another DA, thus joining 2 DAS together?

I was afraid of that, since we could only ever get 2mbps ADSL and if it rained heavily the entire line could drop out for a day or so at a time.
Also, we did have a monitored alarm over the phone line, so that may have been filtered, I'll need to check that out.
In the meantime I'll have to keep telling myself that it's still 15 times better than I had before. But I was hoping for over 60mbps.
Very smooth experience from TPG.
The wifi on the Huawei HG658 seems pretty decent, although I'm about to turn it off in favour of my Unifi AP.

That's interesting. Is there any rule that poor ADSL speed would also mean a lower NBN speed"?
That's interesting. Is there any rule that poor ADSL speed would also mean a lower NBN speed"?
No � if the copper to the node was short and good quality then I'd expect good speed. But we've had problems with the line the whole time we've lived here, so I think the copper is a factor.
But the speed is pretty shite.
Well, I was going to say �Happy NBN Day�, but I suppose this is akin to opening your birthday presents and realising all you got was socks and jocks�.
But the speed is pretty shite.
One option available to you is to get your internal wiring redone if it hasn't been done already � replace it with Cat6e, and put the modem and its wall socket as close as possible to the location where the copper enters your house.
Absolutely no guarantee that this will improve things though so possibly throwing good money after bad.

For those living near the Hallett Cove Beach, has anybody signed up to an ISP that is NOT Telstra or a TPG-owned company (TPG, iiNet, Internode or Adam)?
This is my area which is serviced by 5REL1:
https://goo.gl/maps/VDu6raSWWbr
I signed up with NuSkope back in 20 June (before the RFS date) and my application has been stalled. For the past month I've received marketing letters from Telstra, TPG and various other ISPs about the availability of FTTN NBN in my area. Last week I received an NBN Connect Kit which said that NBN is available in our area and even listed NuSkope as one of the NBN service providers.
I called NuSkope numerous times for over a month, and was advised today (8 August) that their NBN wholesaler could NOT provide a date for NBN FTTN installation to our house.
NuSkope was unable to get a reason why their wholesaler was unable to even give a date for connection. Is there some anti-competitive shenanigans going on, because I'm unable to go with a local SA company?
I decided to sign up for TPG today, which went smoothly and will be monitoring the progress of the application. NuSkope asked me if they could call back in two weeks to see if my application with TPG is successful � will be interesting to see.
NuSkope was unable to get a reason why their wholesaler was unable to even give a date for connection. Is there some anti-competitive shenanigans going on, because I'm unable to go with a local SA company?
I thought I read somewhere that their wholesaler for the NBN is iPrimus.

You're on a 25/5 plan?
Could he sync at 6400 if on 25/5?
Well, submitted a formal complaint through to Telstra with the way they have handled my order for NBN. Will see how we go.
Well, for me in 5REL-01 the FTTN honeymoon is already (predictably) over. Sure I'm syncing at 50mbps but on netflix hours on Friday evening speedtest was showing 10mbps for the actual dl speed, and currently there doesn't seem to be a time where I can download at sync speed, most often the speed is between 20-40mbps, even past midnight, and given that we are still early in terms of number of people having connected, I'm not too optimistic. Mind you, given the capacity of a node it doesn't take much to figure out what speed we'll get when everybody on it will be watching netflix at the same time.
Which ISP?
Which ISP?
Internode
But I'm on 5REL-01-06 which is connected to 2 pillars and 250 premises according the info on finder, so whatever the ISP once we're all connected we're not likely to maintain 50mbps during the times when most people are using their connection, and it could (will rather) get way worse than 10mbps.
Cant be normal
Suggest check internode subface in forum and look at thread about congestion already in 5rel
David from internode has been replying and suggest it could be CVC issue aswell?
Surely, the easiest option is to actually lodge a ticket with Internode?
5REL-01-06
No issues with my connection in general 5rel-01-11, have suffered from a little congestion over the past few weeks, however over the past few days it seems to have improved. Netflix is running sweet!
Hey everyone connected today on Capella Drive Hallet Cove from memory node 11 near skate park, about 200 metres from node
Pretty happy as I was getting about 350kb download now around 8mb
http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5538943154
just got the NBN connection pack in the post today. Happy with the adsl2 plan i'm on at the moment (home phone and unlimited quota for $60 p/month) but i guess i'll be forced to change by Feb 2018 when they will be switching the old network off.
hopefully i can get at least a 50/20 plan for around the same cost around then.
Tomorrow is my appointment and I am on tender hooks because this is the forecast from the BOM.
Cloudy. Very high (90%) chance of showers, most likely in the late morning and afternoon. Probability of the NBN doing sweet f^n nothing all day and missing your appointment 80%. Chance of no quick re appointment in coming days ( high) .
If only I was booked for Monday instead, what a nice day that was.
Ayyy Just got mine connected a few days ago with internode after some trouble with incorrect wiring.... Getting about 25/18 on a 50/20 plan was expecting maybe a bit more download but what can ya do not complaining after 3mbps i used to get.
On the reynella 03

How far from the node are you?
Hi all I'm on Warilda Cres signed up with internode and from what people are estimating their cable length to be it seems it's always longer. I'm worried my speeds will be crap as I'm at least 550m (anyone got a similar distance???) to the node, wait and see I guess. These nodes are too far apart as the high speed part of VDSL really is very limited. Damm you Liberals, it's another one way freeway blunder IMO.
Either NuSkope's wholesaler/backhaul provider is playing games, or something is really dodgy in the NBN business world.
Been waiting since 8 July and as of Monday 8 August, NuSkope's wholesaler/backhaul provider couldn't even give an estimated date to get our house at 5REL1 connected. I signed up for TPG yesterday (Monday 8 August) and got an email today that my "free" modem has shipped (I will use a FritzBox 7490 that I purchased separately), and that an NBN appointment has been made for 1 September.
So why can a company like TPG can do it but NuSkope can't?
For those living near the Hallett Cove Beach, has anybody signed up to an ISP that is NOT Telstra or a TPG-owned company (TPG, iiNet, Internode or Adam)?
Since I posted my message above yesterday, it seems no one has posted that they've been successfully connected with an ISP that is NOT Telstra or a TPG-owned company (TPG, iiNet, Internode or Adam).
Out of interest I downloaded TPG's 2015 Annual Report and looked over the financial numbers. If broadband leverages economies of scale, vertical integration of services (retail, wholesale, backhaul and dedicated interconnects overseas) � I see the big companies absolutely crushing the smaller players in a market like NBN reselling. Even SkyMesh got bought out a short while ago.
The consolidation of the ISP market has been happening since the ADSL days.
Hi all I'm on Warilda Cres signed up with internode and from what people are estimating their cable length to be it seems it's always longer
I am Warilda Crst as well, but I am roughly 390m away. How did you measure your distance?
How do you know which node you're connected to? There is one about 200m away from me and one also 600m away.
On https://www.finder.com.au/nbn-tracker enter your addess. It should show ADA: 5REL-#-# for e.g. mine is 5REL-03-15. You then match this number to what is located on the node.

There's no ADA info my area in 5REL-05. It doesn't even say it's actually RFS on the site (even though it says it should be RFS on the 15th July).
How far from the node are you?
Not sure on cable length how do you find that out anyway?
But about 350m on google maps
I am Warilda Crst as well, but I am roughly 390m away. How did you measure your distance?
I'm fairly certain it runs to the north and then back down capella drive, that's why only half of Warilda Cres is getting FTTN on this stage. Our Node is the one next to the round about on the edge of the park. Have you signed up with an RSP yet? PM me if you want.

Anyone know much about 5REL-01??
Christie Rd, Lonsdale, neighboring businesses can get NBN but it shows as RFS yet additional work is required for our address (we are surrounded by industrial shops/workplaces)
Went RFS on the 8th July but has not updated from additional work required since.
Great to hear a good news story
I am assuming you are on a 12/1 plan?
Yeah. Now I know the max speed of my line I can move to a plan with higher speed.
So i've been keeping an eye on throughput of my connection (TPG 100/40, syncing at 107735/44199 on 5REL-02-01).
https://s9.postimg.org/lpql7jd1r/congestion2.jpg
You can see the affect of peak times on throughput and ping... Numbers will be skewed a little due to usage and the fact it's running on an rpi but it's fairly indicitive of peak vs non-peak
Yea, definitely sounds like a CVC issue with your RSP.
Wow your making a lot of people very jealous, do you know your distance to the node?

Dodgy copper maybe? Who knows with FTTN.
Yea, definitely sounds like a CVC issue with your RSP.
Indeed, it was to be expected with TPG. If it gets noticebly bad i'll move elsewhere, currently two 1080 streams from netflix run fine during peak (for now). Pings while gaming are noticebly higher during those hours.
Wow your making a lot of people very jealous, do you know your distance to the node?
NBN tech advised it was right around 200m.
Wondering what tool you are using to do this?
http://www.cacti.net/ with https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli running under Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi
So after a bit of hassle, Belong has connected me after waiting 24 hours with an active NBN line.
First speed test, 0.49Mbps � yup, it's about double what I was getting on ADSL2+
Tested on multiple devices, wired, wireless � it's definitely congestion.
Sync'd at 28/6.4 � so nothing wrong there.
Great first experience of NBN. But on the positive side, whilst it's only 0.49, there's 0 packet loss, which with ADSL2+ I was experiencing 1 dropped ping for every 3-5 successful pings. So I'm going to say that I'm extremely happy to have reliable internet now. Just would like to get what I'm paying for ... or even just 12/1 at the least?
First speed test, 0.49Mbps
Looks like it points to congestion. Beinf peak hour. It should climb back up to your speed tier later tonight. Dropping to 12/1 won't do anything for congestion speeds.
Oh dear! My WIMAX downloads at 1.4MB/S hope things pick up for you.
Just got tech booked for the 28/8 thanks Internode, good speed in processing my application.
Hi All,
Having a pretty disappointing day, I signed up with Internode on a 100/40, when NBN rocked up today to make the connection they claimed some "known" issues on my circuit limiting my connection to around 20Mbits due to High frequency interference from ADSL services? They reckon the more people move off ADSL and on to NBN the quicker it will get. Does this sound crap or not?
I ended up contacting Internode and changing my plan down to 25Mbits so I wasn't wasting $$$. The guy at internode seemed surprised that I could only connect at around 24Mbits
Anyway below are my modem details, appreciate if you could help me finding a way to improve my service or if I am lumped with average service.

Yep, did a test about half hour later and got 20Mbs, did another at about 9pm at 17Mbs, and just did one then 22/4.8Mbs. Majority of my stuff downloads at around 11am, so peak congestion will not affect 90% of my usage. Happy enough with this for now :)
anyone using TPG for NBN connection? They seem to be the only one I can go with that won't increase my monthly cost $59.95 per month and still get unlimited data (i know it's still only 12/1 speeds but that might be alright for now).
anyone using TPG for NBN connection?
Yes. Several of us in this thread are. Very smooth setup. Modem arrived within 2 business days. I never even saw the technician, the connection was just live right at the start of the install window.
On the other hand, my speed is not great (30mbps on a 100 plan), but that's not TPG's fault. Now I have to decide whether to keep the 100 plan for the sake of 5mbps, or drop down tp the 25 plan. Unfortunately TPG doesn't offer a 50 plan, or I'd do that.

Similar boat here, ( 38/18) costs me an extra $30 month. But the one thing I do not want to lose is the 18 upload down to 5, so I want a 50/20 plan, only thing is iinet dont have one. Internode do but it's not saving me any money to use that plan over the one i am on for 100/40
4 days of nbn and now down since lunch
Cant sync, internode have no idea
Another fault logged with internode
Technician probably stuffing around at pillar/node today
I've also had a good experience with TPG. The connection process was very smooth, even when i contacted them after i had had trouble connecting due to a password issue.
Internode do but it's not saving me any money to use that plan over the one i am on for 100/40
Just remember that NBNco & their CVC controls the pricing... The RSP's/ISP's pay NBNco almost the same to provide the end user 50/20 vs 100/40.
There are some RSP's that can still supply 50/20 but as I said, the price difference isn't really justifiable.
I could possibly point you to a RSP that might be able to help.
Cheers

No sure on my distance from the Node, I will need to explore on the weekend.
Only 1 phone line into my house terminated straight into my patch panel, no splitters etc.
I have previously had a break in my underground cable when my driveaway was laid but repaired by Telstra so can only assume it's not an issue.
The NBN tech made it sound like it was a known issue and other are impacted so I don't believe I have any specific faults but nothing can be assumed....
No sure on my distance from the Node, I will need to explore on the weekend.
Just remember that the line probably does not take the shortest route to the 'node'
I, or any of the RSP's could give you an indication of cable length between your property and the FTTN Node.
However, the condition of internal cabling at your property WILL likely have a detrimental effect on FTTN NBN connection speeds and internet connectivity /performance etc...
Cheers

Now that an extra 6 or 7 people seem to have NBN on my node, contention is rearing it's head. Even now, at 10:30, I'm only managing spikes up to 15/6. With consistent speed of around 3/1. So as I was on naked dsl. It's better in the mornings, around 25/12. I'm still syncing at the same speed (62/20 theoretical and 50/20 actual) but now am unable to ever actually use those speeds. I imagine it will worsen as more people use the node. Sad now.
In 05, with iiNet.
Ernie, do you estimate the cable length based on attenuation? Or do you have actaul cable length data? Cheers.

As a Reseller, I 'could' obtain information regards to exact cable lengths on the telecoms network. on a case by case basis...

This sounds like...CVC congestion.
Speak/complain to your RSP/ISP about this, or change your internet provider...
It's beginning to become horrible to try and play any latency dependent game anywhere from 5pm at the earliest to about 11pm/midnight depending on if it is the weekend or not. At least my ADSL2 was consistent all the time.
Thanks for the replies Ernie. I agree about cvc issues.
If I recall, a node has a max capacity too, yes? 2gigabit? If so, once a node is full (up to 300 ports I think I read once??) wouldnt that problem make even cvc redundant, or at least become a local 'cvc' type issue.
When you says expectation vs reality, what do you man?
Thanks.
When you says expectation vs reality, what do you man?
What I meant by that was:
Customers often think that the cable at the house takes the shortest route, when in reality the cable 'might' take a very long route from a property to the Pillar / Node.
For example, just because you might be 300m away from the node, it 'could' mean that the cable length is 400m or even more
If you're able/willing, can I pm my details and you check my cable length? My attenuation suggests 500-650m, but a previous Telstra tech told me it was 250m.
check my cable length?
Probably best if you call your existing ISP. Explain you are having issues and ask them what the cable length is. The ISP's support portal will have this info.

So when I first signed up on 5REL01 (Hallett Cove Beach) I was very happy. 97/30ish speeds, super low ping, happy days indeed. This was on iinet with the TG1.
This last week has been pretty terrible with peak hour congestion already. Basically between 6pm � 11pm my downstream cuts to <40, which doesn't bother me since it's still a great speed compared to what I had prior to NBN, but my ping jumps to 180 � 220. I knew my downstream would drop with congestion, but didn't expect it to have such a dramatic effect on ping. 9 � 11 is basically the only time I get to play games online with my mates, and that's now a terrible experience.
I called iinet and they told me this was to be 'expected' (I was also told to be smarter and play at non-peak times, like that's possible for someone working a fulltime job). Apparently they're working on increasing their capacity, but no ETA on when that will be.
Is this the same for people on other ISPs? I'm not sure if I should wait this out, or switch over to someone who actually plans more than 1 month ahead. Fortunately I stuck to a month-to-month contract. I don't know if the TG1 will play nice with other ISPs, though.
Iinet are known to be fairly bad with CVC congestion. Apparently TPG and Telstra are alot better when it comes to peak time congestion.
I am sure your current router shouldnt be a problem if you switched to another ISP.
Yeah, here in o'halloran hill it's gotten terrible over the last well. Also iiNet. I have a consistent 45/18 and 5-6ms during quiet times(and always in the first days) and now it is only those speeds during bed time(midnight to 7am) then it's a gradual decline through the day until around 3:30-midnight. It is 6/6 and 120-200ms throughout those hours. And that's best case. A speedtest struggles up to those speeds. I can do one Netflix stream(720p), but nothing else.
This last week has been pretty terrible with peak hour congestion already. Basically between 6pm � 11pm my downstream cuts to <40,
Man you need to write to the local member of parliament or start a picket line somewhere that's pathetic
BTW. I get maximum 35mb/s in off peak times just because you were lucky with node lotto and I wasn't.
Happy NBN day ... #sigh

Is this the same for people on other ISPs?
I'm just south of Candy Rd, so I'm in the Happy Valley part of 05. With TPG, speed and latency is great throughout off peak periods, but it's over 120ms during peak and lots of jitter, which is horrible cause it's generally only when I get to play games with mates apart from weekends.
Yes he should
How's the congestion for you? I am finally starting to notice it (but not the lag).
How's the congestion for you? I am finally starting to notice it (but not the lag).
It's been good for the past week for me, definitely getting bad now though.
If take congestion right now lol
Nbn co are a bunch if clowns
iiNet here and I get 166ms ping around 8pm and the download of 6mb. On 25mb plan. Decided to pay the set up fees so I can move to another if the congestion got too annoying.
I'm going to move. iiNet had no interest in considering there being an issue. I tried two different operators.
I'm about 700m metres from the node on cove road Rd roundabout, all the phone line in the house got redone about 6 years ago ... Might be worthwhile getting done again as no longer need multiple ports in house.
With iiNet and there default modem, spent 20 mins on hold this arvo and gave up, will try again tomorrow ... Will see what they say if I finally get through
It is refreshing to finally be able to use things like Netflix, massive improvement, but was hoping for around 40 to 50 connection.
You purposely cut off my quote to make it sound like I'm complaining about my downstream. I wasn't. If you read the words immediately following the half-sentence you quoted, I said that the <40 speed during congestion 'doesn't bother me as it's still a great speed'.
You don't think I have anything to complain about? Well it's not all about downstream. What I was complaining about was the 200ms latency which makes it impossible to do one of the things I wanted the NBN to deliver on, which was allowing me to play online with my mates. While I couldn't stream netflix or do multiple things concurrently on my previous ADSL connection, I could at least get a consistent ping. Now I can't.
You sound really bitter. I'm sorry you don't live as close to your pillar as I do to mine. I got lucky that my node and pillar are both quite close to my house. But maybe don't be misleading with what I believe are legitimate concerns, and concerns shared by other people here who, like me, may be seeking advice on what to do about it.
How do I find out what node i'll be on? I'm on Sir James Hardy Way and think I'm in 5REL-07 but would be interested to know what node I'd be on? Have a mate who connected in Sheidow and has had no internet for over a week while they try to sort his connection. Leaning towards holding off on the connection once it hits RFS.
Twist of lemon, I'm pretty sure you're on a 25/5 profile. Especially with the attenuation figures vs attainable rate. Call your company and have them double check.
Yes, definately sounds like you are on a 25/5 profile as mentioned. Definitely get Internode to check that out.
Cheers!
Rang up Internode and they confirmed the NBN tech had set it to a 25/5 profile. Seemed to be a reasonably common occurrence based on what the Internode rep said.
Now to wait for the profile change to take effect. ?( ? )?
Tech number 4 coming out friday to look at fault
Wish me luck
Why so many?
Tech 1 Jumper wrong pair
Tech 2 jumper right pair but lasted 4 days
Tech 3 said nothing wrong even though i have no sync, have tried 2 modems and numerous cords and done isolation tests and had independant cabler test my internas
Tech 4 friday after admitting their is a fault
5REL-03, TPG.
Rang and complained to TPG about slow speed. After running through their modem reset and retest song and dance, the guy acknowledged that 13mbps is unacceptable on a 100mbps plan. He's escalated it to their next level techs.
We'll see if anything comes of this.
We'll see if anything comes of this.
Any better tonight?
For me, after last nights efforts, it appears to have returned to what I have paid for.

Mine is battlin' big time, 5REL-02-10
No � 13mbps at 8:30, that's when I called TPG.
Still better than some. Shame if NBN is your only option though

Barely even able to load gyfs/gifs/webms. Speedtest is obviously getting a result than everything else. Using speedof.me http://speedof.me/show.php?im
On 5REL-05with iiNet, on Tuesday it was rather shabby. Still not great at night.

A WINNER in node lotto congrats, many here aren't so lucky.
Hi all, brand new to the club and not very tech savvy but would love to hear some advice please.
Live in Happy Valley so think I am on the right forum and was meant to have NBN connected on Wednesday.
Am with IInet and been told the cutover from ADSL to NBN was done however their modem did not accept the changeover with the internet connection staying red.
Numerous hours on phone with IInet on wed night / Thursday morning failed to resolve eventually leading to conclusion that modem (TG-1) supplied by iinet 4 months ago was faulty.
Decided to take matters into my hands thinking I could speed up process and purchase new modem D-Link DSL-2885A AC1200 ( 4 teenagers no internet is not a fun place to be never mind the parental sanity !!)
Loaded this all up last night and still no internet connection. Everything else loads fine.
Again on phone with iinet to be told this modem is not compatable and does not fall under Compliant nbn� FTTN/FTTB VDSL2 Modem/Routers.
Wondered if other people have "different" modems and got them to work when connected to nbn or whether there is actually a fault with the connection that iinet are not acknowledging, or any other theories that people might have please.
Thanks all
So, are there more towers going up in Hallett Cove Chad?
funny you mention that. But here isn't the place
Numerous hours on phone with IInet on wed night / Thursday morning failed to resolve eventually leading to conclusion that modem (TG-1) supplied by iinet 4 months ago was faulty.
If you were using this modem on ADSL I would have a guess the modem is NOT faulty, I could stand corrected though
You should not have bought a new modem the TG-1 is the best for iiNet NBN ( at least in compatibility)
I hope you can take the new modem back for a refund.
D-Link DSL-2885A AC1200 ( 4 teenagers no internet is not a fun place to be never mind the parental sanity !!)
Unfortunately, there is a very small list of modems that are compliant with the variant of the NBN (FTTN) that we are connecting to. Check out the following WIKI for that list:
http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki
Unfortunately, unless you start doing research and digging, this information is not easily obtainable. I hope you can get a refund on that modem you bought.
All fixed
Tech was here for a good 2 and half hours
Was only picking up one line of the pair
Followed the line to the node which says cable length was 380mt but as he traced it ran up another street in another direction by 100mt and was an issue in that pit
In finishing now getting on the frtizbox
47.09 down
13.69 up
Heres to a happy ending
Was only picking up one line of the pair
what ?
It only runs on one pair anyway doesnt it?
only runs on one pair anyway doesnt it?
It was only picking up 1 of the 2 wires that make up the pair
Heres to a happy ending
Sigh, another hungry mouth to feed precious CVC capacity ;-)
Glad you got it sorted! Hope that's the end of it for you.
In finishing now getting on the frtizbox

What plan are you on? I didn't ask before...
Might be worthwhile doing another very quick 'isolation test' before spending money replacing that piece of internal cabling...
Cheers
Ernie
P.S glad he managed to find the broken wire !! :-/
Sigh, another hungry mouth to feed precious CVC capacity ;-)
Haha least we somewhat have an open ticket over in the internode section
What plan are you on? I didn't ask before...
50/20 plan
He has me 290 mts from node
Nbn maps say 380 line cable but he found that it goes off track for 100mt down bluehills rd away from node before chucking a u-turn back
Will be in touch
Nbn maps say 380 line cable
This is the important measurement... hopefully all the joints in this cable run are now good.
Based on 380 metres, you should be able to get around 80 down and 33 upload � or a little bit better.
With a lot of luck you might get quite close to 100/40.
Cheers

No congestion with Belong anymore.. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/2144753486
5REL-05-17. Only on installation day was it congested (terribly) and since then I've tested every night to be ok. Maybe I'm missing *my node's* congestion periods when I'm testing.. I'm only on 25/5, so its not going to be as noticeable as 100/40
No congestion with Belong anymore
May have to look into changing provider, the only issue is whom.
May have to look into changing provider, the only issue is whom
Without combing through all your posts... do you often have good (full) speeds? and good bandwidth?
Changing provider might only affect your connection AFTER the POI, but the fault 'might' be between the 'node' and your property.
Need to 'measure the pattern' of slow connection to determine if it is congestion or something else.
Cheers

Well that looks like congestion then.... Complain VERY HARD to your ISP/RSP...and/or change provider.
Cheers
Ernie

Well congestion, and it is 'amplified' by faster sync connections such as NBN. Is a real problem... but the most important point is to eliminate any other issue other than the uplink/POI congestion problem.
Always best to eliminate all the local factors, such as internal cabling, and issues 'up to' the node.
that way any issues can be focused on things that are 'outside your control'
It is likely that these issues 'out of your control' aren't going to change, just by 'changing ISP/RSP'
Cheers
Ernie
Go Go congestion
Well, after having loads of drama with Telstra, and having the TIO involved, should be having my NBN connected next Tuesday in 5REL03-15. Fingers crossed it all goes smoothly.
Probably the first from 5REL03-15 on here to go live. No other Telstra customers here?
No other Telstra customers here?
IMHO, considering that the NBN isn't under Telstra's control... I would say they might be the worst value NBN RSP.

Only in 'my experience'.. (as a qualified Telecommunications Engineer)
Cheers

Have you sent this to your ISP/RSP?
I'd be sending this, and any subsequent statistics, emphasising a 'pattern' on a regular basis...
Ernie
To be frank... I suspect that since the hallett cove area has gone 'RFS' on NBN it is actually having a detrimental affect on ADSL2+ services in the area.
I can see since the general area has gone RFS, ADSL connections have gotten progressively worse. :-(
Some might call it 'coincidence' !!!!!
going to FTTN NBN soon, so I will be expecting reasonable connections / and reasonable bandwidth, even at 'peak times' .... but not holding my breath !
Not meaning to be biased, but I hope to be of use, at least to people in my immediate area... especially with my experience in Telecoms/NBN...
Ernie
Good luck ernie
You already have been of great help on here and in person and im sure as more ppl in your own suburb go to nbn they will need an expert with cabling to troubleshoot some issues

Yep, and I've noticed this in Reynella too with my ADSL2+ download speeds going from around 10-12 mb to 6-7 mb since we went RFS with NBN.
I'm with Internode and they all but admitted this is due to the NBN. Sp not only are we being forced to move to more expensive plans (at potentially slower download speeds) but they are killing our old speeds until we are forced to move to NBN (which is Feb 2018 anyway)

Tin hats for everyone....
Was due to be connected yesterday, good start with the contractor calling to see if he could come out earlier than scheduled, yep no worries.
Couldn't get a sync......... Might be a faulty port, provision new port
Sync at 2 Mbps yay even slower than my Wi-Max
Traces cable and it does not go the shortest path to the pillar but down side streets etc ~600M
Pulling cables up in the pits along the street........ Lots of head scratching
2 hours later comes back with a "sorry its not happening today" � :(
Its a strange one and haven't seen this before he said before advising
I can get 55mbps sync just up the street then there is a SA Power Networks transformer (in green cabinet) and on the pit on the other side of the transformer it drops to 2 Mbps!!
"I'm pretty sure the transformer is not earthed properly and causing interference and not the cabling as its pretty much brand new (new area)" and thats why you are only getting 2 Mbps
Well now the fun and games begin they will need to send someone out from NBN to confirm what the contractor has advised and when they do I assume contact SA Power networks....
Then RSP books another appointment with NBN I assume...
Sounds like weeks and weeks of delays.
The only positive from all this is he believes I should get close to 50/20 (I signed with Aussie on a 50/20 plan). Connected to 5REL-03 Sheidow Park
It's never easy is it!
I feel your pain
I had similar but slightly different issues
Have to push the RSP hard as they are the only conduit between yourself and the NBN co
May the force be with you
Cheers, going to need the force, some luck and a lot of pushing the RSP to get it sorted!

Would expect faster being 240 metres away.
Agreed. Either the tech got it wrong or there is an issue somewhere.
Tech said the 240 was incorrect, but was closer to 340m.
I do have a extra phone point in the house. Might try that one.
Does anyone have any idea of when 5REL-08 is coming online? Latest leaks seemed to indicate July (previous leaks said early August), but August is about to disappear and no news.
My current ADSL2+ connection is crawling along at 1.5Mbps on a dry day. Have had techs to check that internally nothing is wrong (there isn't); I'm sure it's just line length as my end of Equestrian Dr is notoriously bad (either way, have finally managed to get Telstra to come out tomorrow to check the line after lots of noise with Internode).
My Node (5REL-08-15-FND-001; I presume, it's the closest) has been on the street for about 8 months; anyone have any clues as to what the hold up is? I'm going mad (and over my mobile data cap) with this current shocking connection.
17.5db more like 700 meters or more

Does look like it 'might' be an internal cabling problem... but unless you are a Registered Cabler then you are not allowed to work on it.
I would recomend an 'isolation test' to eliminate internal cabling as the source of the problems.
What speed of connection is Telstra actually providing to you? are they giving a 'Speedboost'?
Lots of questions need answers before you really find out what the issue is
Cheers
Ernie
Telstra still need to add Speedboost 100/40. Takes 24hrs to become active. Was added for free.
Tested both lines in the house, the 2nd line was considerably slower. By about 10Mbps
Remove the 2nd line for sure. But i dont think youre 250 meters maybe crow but youre path probably goes around the block then gets there. And id be checking about the speedboost being free. If it was it would already be activated
It has been confirmed free, it wasnt added to my order originally. Just lets say I have had a lot of fun with Telstra at the moment, and the TIO has been involved.
I had to get it added when my service was activated.
As ZacB said, line length was probbaly closer to 750m
Does is actually say speedboost on you're account page? And yes i also have had issues with telstra and nbn stemming 2 months. Let us know how youre speed is in peak times.
an update...
Was able to finally connect to NBN on friday night after some 6 hours spent with Customer support thru my provider.
One final try and I actually got through to someone who fixed my issue in 15 minutes going back to my old TG-1 modem.
5 other reps had me doing more resets and reboots and changes of modem than I want to do again in my lifetime....
So here's to a world of improved internet speed.....

Latest info suggests 4th Nov.
*groan*
Thanks... that is incredibly frustrating. So much for July/August. Whatever happened to faster, sooner, cheaper? (Rhetorical, I know what happened)
(?�?�)?? ???
Well, since sometime Friday afternoon, my downstream attenuation has increased from ~13dB to 18dB, SNR has dropped from ~5 to 2.8dB on my old RIM ADSL2+ (on RELA G138)
No change in sync speeds yet, but we're still 2 weeks away from RFS � I fear this will only get worse from here on out.
So long proto-FTTN.
I reckon you'll find they will build as close as they can to the RIM with the new node, use it for ADSL and voice up until everyone has transitioned over and then just remove them. But I really am not sure.
Yep, one of the FTTN cabinets is right next to the RIM+Tophat on Education Road
After the 18 months though, unless there is a fiscal impetus (selling on or reusing the equipment) to remove them sooner, I imagine they'll stay for many years derelict before finally being removed.
Thanks for the reply's. Cant wait to get off this horrid RIM and the terrible plans that come with it.
I'm on the opposite track, the RIM here is rather close and has been very reliable � it's actually been one of the best DSL connections I've ever had � I've been sitting pretty at ~18mbps for a nice while.
Much better than the terribad connection at my last place, which could barely maintain 2mbps to STMN...

Happy considering what used to get on adsl 1, stable and around 650 from node, with telstra.

Hoping my 100/40 plan is going to deliver better than the current max of 35mbps I am getting.
Depends what your Max line rate is.
What is the best way to find that out? Provider?
Check on your router. It will show the line statistics on there.
I've found an extra 9mbps from somewhere. Now getting 39mbps on my 100/40 plan.
The only thing that's changed in the last week has been the monitored alarm people physically disconnecting the no-longer used phone line from the alarm box. If that's a 9mbps win, then I'm hopeful there may be more when the TPG tech, en-route as I type, goes over the line.
I'm hopeful there may be more when the TPG tech, en-route as I type, goes over the line.
...and the copper says "Nope!" 39mbps at the lead-in. That's as good as it's going to get. The tech will submit his report to TPG, but I dunno if they'll go back to NBN with it, considering 25mbps is "spec" for an up-to-100 mbps plan. And even if they do, NBN will probably just say "within spec" anyway.
At least I know the internal house wiring is fine.
Now, I wonder what NuSkope are doing...
Congestion is back on iiNet tonight. I was happy last week. Now down to 8mb/s
8:40 PM on a Tuesday evening and I have NOT got any congestion at all. ping at 6ms and my full daytime speed is available to me on speedtest ( 34/17) iiNet 5 REL-03-02
You somewhere near Berrima Road?
Got around to making my order today. 5REL-03 about 370m from the node. Sticking with Internode, 25/5 and getting the TG-1. Some of the stories I've just read don't fill me with much confidence about what's to come. Not worried about the speeds so much, just hoping it all gets sorted properly.
Well thats comforting as I'm due to be going live on that node on Wednesday.
Congestion for me last night too. Also iiNet. In 05. Ping was high, speed was low :(
Congestion for me last night too. Also iiNet. In 05. Ping was high, speed was low :(
same here, >120 ping and 10mb. Although the download has been as low as 3mb on the 25 mb plan just after joining. It had been getting better but dropped again in the last few days.
Mine has been sitting fairly rock solid through peak times. Havent seen it dip below 39Mbps. Wife has been happy watching Netflix. So that's a good sign. 5REL03-15
f you have had a naked service for anything longer then 3 months, they can't guarantee the condition of the line. It's simply to ensure that it all works OK.
Well I received a text yesterday afternoon to say they were now connecting this Thursday morning and they don't need to be at my home. Interesting that this is the third message I've had with different times and request to be at home and no need to be at home. If it doesn't work well then I'll be getting them out to my home. It's a PIA as I've arranged time off work to be at home and now I have to cancel that.

Jeez mate be careful saying things like that you'll jinx us!!!
LOL
How has your connection been Pete?
Good to see some people are having an ok experience with NBN.
I'm in the 5REL-05 area (Happy Valley).
Received an email 2 weeks ago saying we were about to be connected to the NBN. Called up telstra to say we haven't signed up to any plan yet and were told it is happening automatically on the lowest NBN plan at same cost as current ADSL2 plan. They sent a new modem and phone, which was set up last week with new SSID and password, still on ADSL connection though.
Next email was telstra telling us we would be disconnected for a few hours and then we would be on NBN.
5 days ago ADSL was disconnected during the day and we waited until the evening to call and ask why we haven't been re-connected. We were told there is a problem with the NBN line which won't be fixed until the 15th of September, and worse, that our ADSL couldn't be re-connected.
After telling telstra it wasn't good enough we were told to go to a telstra shop and get a 4G wireless dongle to connect to with 30 gig loaded up, with unlimited re-loads until we have NBN. That has lasted 3 days but now we are told it will be 2 to 3 days to get more gigs loaded. 3 kids, 1 doing year 12 with 2 assignments due in a few weeks.
Will be going to the ombudsman tomorrow but I just thought I'd share my story to see if anyone has had a similar experience. Also any advise on what else to do would be great. New ISP resolve the issue quicker perhaps?
I have had a very fun experience with Telstra. They are pathetic when it comes to customer service, and my case manager went MIA when I made a complaint. Got the TIO involved, and had my issues mostly sorted.
In short
Submitted Telstra Bundle order to Telstra 25/07 Install date 04/08. Found out that they didnt apply the free speedboost etc.
Check Order Status daily leading up to appointment, got changed to the 23/08 on the 3/08. No notification from Telstra
Called Telstra on 3/08 to see what the go was. Found they didnt link the order properly to NBN Co, hence NBN cancelling the appointment. Grr
Submitted Complaint to Telstra 5/08 , as was currently without Internet due to their stuff up, and also still not receiving the Telstra TV. Spoke to a case manager, advised this was being looked after. Advised excess data fees would be waived while using our mobile phones as hotspots.
9/08 � 15/08 Chasing up my Case manager regarding the above. Couldnt get any contact at all. Spoke to numerous people at Telstra, and they ensured she was going to get back to me.
16/08 � Sent Complaint to TIO
18/08 � Got a SMS saying my Telstra TV is on the way
19/09 � Give Telstra another call regarding my complaint. Still wasn't getting anywhere, then asked to confirm date with NBN Co. Waited 10mins, soon as I was off hold, a supervisor spoke to me and advised me that all my excess data fees would be waived etc, and the Telstra TV is on the way. And he also wanted to ensure that my NBN is definitely being connected on the 23/08. Was very aplogetic. Been waiting a while to hear this!
22/08 � Call Telstra to confirm appointment with NBN Co. All confirmed for tomorrow. Even though I had to wait on hold for close to 40mins...
23/08 � Finally Connected to NBN, but on base speedboost. 25/5
30/08 � Got my max speedboost applied. Still waiting for my data fees to be waived on our mobiles. Still havent heard from Case Manager.
At least I dont suffer from congestion issues and speeds are good. Guess that is the only positive from this whole experience.
Long time lerker, first time poster.
I'm a 5REN-03-05 user and can see the node from my front lounge.
Signed up to a 100/40 as I synced previously at 20(ish)Mbps on a tophat with Telstra.
NBN VDSL Sync, 3-5Mbps/0.9Mbps, but I do get internet, which is great.
Now obviously something is wrong, but it's annoying I now have to prove I have something wrong to log a job with NBNCo (Through Internode). Tried another router, but still the same. Now have to wait a couple of days recording speed tests to arm iiNet/iNode with a case to log with NBNco. I suspect noise on the line, but I dont' know how to read the attenuation values or have an analogue handset. I'll just wait it out....
Better than my neighbour though. Coming up to 12 Weeks without a phone line or internet and he never wanted to change; just lost dialtone one day. His 'fixup' appointment was today as well, but he didn't contact his Case Manager yesterday to confirm. Now he has to wait until the 15th for another appointment. :) sucks to be him and his wife's home business. His case manager isn't impressed, but I wouldn't be impressed if i had no internet for over 10 weeks.

What are your stats off the router? what router do you have and we may help you get them if you dont know how
I'm in Hallett Cove. Not sure which Node I'm on, or how to tell, but would like to know � I suspect its the one up the street and round the corner.
Went from 2mbps max down and less than 1mbps up to what seems like a fairly steady 60-65mbps down/26-28mbps up.
Most speedtests I run reflect this although in some peak times it drops to about 40mbps down � which is still 20x faster than what I had on ADSL2 anyway.
I'm in Hallett Cove. Not sure which Node I'm on
well if you on the west side of the railway line i can help, if not then someone else may help, nearest cross road would help though?

Yeah west side of the railway line. Node is near the intersection of Dutchman Drive and The Cove Road � which is the one I think I'm on as I'm not far from there.
How has your connection been Pete?
Yeah pretty good, getting higher pings than normal around peak times but speed is ok.
The more people getting hooked up to our node I think it will change unfortunately.
Cheers.
And even if they do, NBN will probably just say "within spec" anyway.
Yup. TPG called to say that NBN won't investigate further as I'm above the minimum (25mbps), and my line length from the node is 906 metres(!!).
I guess with that length of copper I should be glad I'm getting 39mbps.

You could try complaining to your local MP and also submit a request for a 'NBN Technology Change'. (To FTTH)
There are other options, but they're not going to be 'low cost'
At 900 odd metres that's what I'd expect for FTTN.
Welcome to the NBN MTM (Malcolm's Total Mess)
Ernie
submit a request for a 'NBN Technology Change'.
Considering it'll cost $660 just to get them to quote, and the quotes I've heard of start around $8,000 at the low end, this won't be happening unless I win lotto :)
It's ADSL all over again.
That's the whole problem � it still is DSL, just a different variety of it. So shoving immense data along lengths of shitty copper that was never intended to handle it, just that you're going to a node rather than the exchange � which in some ways is worse because from there you then face RSP and overall node congestion.
^ thats the truth and the whole truth right there........MTM legacy to Australia.
Hey Question. I've noticed if I re-sync my VDSL 5 or so times, it changes from 4Mbps sync to 50+Mbps sync.
I'm managed to get 50+ a couple of times now, which lasts for a number of hours at that speed. Any crazy speculations by Whirlpoolers?

Sounds like a high resistance cable fault, this could be in your internal cabling � or it could be between your property and the pillar/node.
Only way to tell is an isolation test by a Registered Cabler or even a TDR test to check cabling back to the pillar/node.
Do you have a 'phone service'? or just Internet?
Generally, only the carrier/NBNco has TDR testers, very few Registered Cablers own these TDR's as well :-)
Ernie
Just internet. I only have 1 point in the house, swapped cables between modem. It's a new house and my ADSL was find and stable at 20+ meg for 8 years (when I built the house). Even thought it's unlikely the house, I'll check it out.
I might be able to steal my Fluke TDR at work for some private usage, but I'm bound to get arrested for working on current providing wire without a license.
The only other question is other than Dial B4 U Dig or a TDR, is there a way to find my distance to the Node? There is a node across from my house in the park, but I don't know whether my cable goes down the street, up the road, and around the bend :)

Hmmmm....assuming you are qualified you 'should' be able to isolate the problem
(not meaning to be condecending)
Well, if you are a qualified Registered Cabler, you 'should' be able to do this � with out asking me about it............
There's NO 'LICENCE' it is all about being a 'Registered Cabler' (with the correct endorsements)

After waiting six years for NBN, got connected today.
Location: Hallett Cove, down Arafura Court.
I'm posting this for general interest sake. My area has a serious issue for poor quality internet. WiMax is barely passable here during peak times, no NuSkope wireless service and even Telstra 3G/4G reception is weak/flakey.
Originally: With WiMax I was getting up to 3Mbits/sec down and 0.8Mbits/sec up. This is the best case scenario.
At peak times I've seen it go as low as 0.2Mbps download. Never mind the ping, online gaming was out of the question.
Now connected to TPG FTTN 100/40 unlimited plan using a Fritzbox 7490 I get.
35Mbit/sec download and 7.3Mbits/sec up.
Speedtest: http://beta.speedtest.net/result/5596115126
Not great, but way better than WiMax.
Signal attenuation from the Fritzbox is 27dB down and 48dB up. At such large attenuation, I'm lucky the DSL technology even works. SNR is 6dB both download and upload.
Further details I obtained by speaking to the NBN contractor:
I'm 1 km from the Telstra cabinet. I guess that is the node.
Tagging along with the NBN sub-contractor today and using his portable VDSL testing tool we measured at the pillar:
Max. downstream data rate: 54.8Mbps
Max. upstream data rate: 32.8Mbps
Photo of screen: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zqv
Using that same tool, at home 300 metres from the pillar, measured from the phone socket:
Max. downstream data rate: 38.6Mbps
Max. upstream data rate: 8.9Mbps
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7e
I guess this is it, I waited six years and this is Turnbull's 21st Century Australian Broadband network!
Evidence:
Fritzbox 740 DSL summary screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/u7o
DSL detail screenshot:
https://www.dropb
DSL spectrum graph:
https://www.dropbox.co
Finally got connected up today to 5REL-02-08, signed up for 50/20 on Internode and according to the Fritzbox I get 22Mbit/s down and 11.5 Mbit/s up. Might end up downgrading to 25/5 although the up speed is wonderful, uploaded a video this morning that took about 24 mins instead of the roughly 2 hours it would have taken before.
I'm 1 km from the Telstra cabinet. I guess that is the node.
Jeez, and I thought mine was bad.
Funny thing is, the NBN tech that came to my place said they are not allowed to connect anyone that is over 850m from the Node.
Max. downstream data rate: 54.8Mbps
Max. upstream data rate: 32.8Mbps
Using that same tool, at home 300 metres from the pillar, measured from the phone socket:
Max. downstream data rate: 38.6Mbps
Max. upstream data rate: 8.9Mbps
So it looks like the same as me, that the pillar is a long way from the node, like 400 -500 mtrs? Giving you a km of copper
Funny thing is, the NBN tech that came to my place said they are not allowed to connect anyone that is over 850m from the Node.
I haven't heard that one
So it looks like the same as me, that the pillar is a long way from the node, like 400 -500 mtrs? Giving you a km of copper
My nearest node is near Grand Central Avenue around 150m away (direct flight path) from my closest pillar (RELA P21), according to the Google Map link at the top of this thread.
I estimate 450m from my house to the node. Technician said 1km to "Telstra cabinet" (guessing that is the node), so an extra length of 550m of copper along the entire run. I have no idea how the telephone wires are laid out here.
Back 8 years ago when we had ADSL service here, we were lucky to get 1-2 Mbit/sec over an estimated 4km to the telephone exchange. As the weather got wet, ADSL would even fail to handshake/establish a link.
Will see how FTTN (VDSL2) goes for reliability. 1km is a lot better than 4km.
Anyone on 5REL-02-05 and experiencing dropouts in the last couple of days? Optus have scaled back my connection today, but don't really fancy dropping the speed off by below 75mbps when paying for a 100mbs plan...
Anyone on 5REL-02-05 and experiencing dropouts in the last couple of days?
Not that node but 03-02 � yes, dropouts once or twice a day but only for a minute at a time. Perhaps others getting connected?

I doubt it. If by the way you mean Nuskope wireless. Well, it's only up to 30 mb and I get that on FTTN
I'm talking at least 100 mbs now to make me happy, Oh that's right I can get it on Telstra or Optus 4G data as I am pretty close to the towers, I just think it might cost a bit much to use the way I want to :)
Unless the private sector steps in to offer a better solution
Would be nice but i doubt it. Lock me in for a 6 year contract and give me ftth and i'll bite.......

Hi, I'm living in Victor Harbor S.A and have FTTP. I'm paying for 100/40 and my latest speedtest

with all that crap the libs dreamed up giving a lot of people a bad time and wasting loads
of money in the process! Still there must be some happy people around cause looking at the
news them there libs still running the country!!!!
yes :) That would be nice. This is the thing, nothing against you personally � but why is it fair that you get this and I don't. ( I know why)
Just pointing out that private companies can do it better, and are doing it better.
If everyone on NuSkope is capable of pulling those speeds but are connected at 30/5 all the time that means no congestion and a healthy network. Quality over quantity.

Are you sure that Telstra has actually applied the 100/40 speedboost?
I had a client in Hallett Cove, who had internal cabling issues that I fixed up, but they still got slowish speeds.
A call to Telstra showed that the service was not 100/40 despite another Telstra CSR previously saying it was 100/40.
An isolation test will prove if there are internal cabling problems.

Well I received a text yesterday afternoon to say they were now connecting this Thursday morning and they don't need to be at my home.
Didn't work so now we have no internet at home and have to wait ten days for a tech to come to the home. What a bloody run around .
If you read through the thread, treat it as a blessing in disguise! At least when the tech leaves, you will know if everything is OK.

Yeah, if only!!
Thought I'd just post again after a few weeks to update for anyone asking about speeds. On 5REL05-17, absolutely no slow downs during peak period (Belong Internet) � Note I'm on 25/5, so if there WAS a slowdown, it's not going slower than 2.8MB/s from 5pm-12am � so those with 100/40 might have a slowdown, but I am not noticing it.
Does anyone know if Belong use the same CVC capacity as Telstra? I know for ADSL, it was a completely different system (TelcoInABox) and nothing to do with Telstra besides the ownership, but with NBN do they work separate or as one?
I try to start my big Xbox downloads in the morning to share the system around, but some nights I'm part of the cause for congestion :P
On a 100/40 with Telstra, really disappointing speeds so far but I'm fairly certain the internal wiring is responsible.
Sounds like you are a lot further than 350m. I am on 5REL03-15, but around 700m from the node, and getting around 44/31with Telstra.
Would definitely get your internal wiring checked.
Dismal peak time speeds in recent nights, drops as low as 3 Mbit/s between 5pm-12am. Other times it get as high as 94/30

The same isp wont let you change to nbn without paying cancellation fee? have you pushed it with them?
Same isp probably wont charge me to upgrade but they charge too much for a decent speed connection
In theory, word has it that my FTTN will get connected tomorrow (I have a feeling that Telstra have been contracted to do it, since I got an automated call a few days ago about the appointment).
I tried to get a note through to the installer about the noise suppression added to our line (due to the near by radio tower), with luck it gets through, since if it's left in place, I hear it will stuff up FTTN.
Picked up the fritzbox and fon today, so with luck this will all go smoothly, if not, I'm stuffed, with no internet or phone and hence no means to tell anyone that it's not working.

Without the noise suppressor your line will pick up the radio frequency yes? Don't like your chances as fttn is super sensitive.

The telephone picks it up, yes, but my phone is about to be voip, so will no longer matter.
FTTN must work ok otherwise, given the whole area around the tower is now FTTN.

It can still pick up interference =(

I'm sure it "works" , but unless you completely rewire you house to stop the radio interference, you're gonna have a bad time.
5rel-07 showing as RFS on 9/9....
Is it worth signing up on the day or should we wait for any teething install issues? I work from a home office so Internet is quite important so can't afford to be down for a week or two if there's issues!
Is it worth signing up on the day or should we wait for any teething install issues?
In my opinion no blanket rule can be applied to everyone phone lines, there are always exceptions. What I can recommend is you either have extra phone extensions removed or have a dedicated VDSL2 line run to the modem by a qualified cable person. Your RSP can suggest such a person or do a quick search. The other thing is "try" to work out distance to the node (it's not straight line) so when you get connected it should get close to the mark.
Best of luck in NODE LOTTO!
Cheers Pete.
Ha cheers Pete, not confident of my lotto chances. We are about 400-500m from the node I think (assuming it follows the road which no doubt it won't) and there is a pillar not far up the road too so hoping we do alright! Is there anyway to find out the actual line distance and what pillar we are closest to � ie 5rel-07-xx?

Add broadband map data set. There should be a node somewhere in the boundary in which your house is located. If its close enough to your house you can even request the cabling map from telstra via the 1100.com.au (dial before you dig) website for free.. (or send a couple of requests of houses down the street from you so you get the complete map till u hit the node.. :)
Thanks Nikkon I'll have a look
I tried to get a note through to the installer about the noise suppression added to our line (due to the near by radio tower), with luck it gets through, since if it's left in place, I hear it will stuff up FTTN.
I had an RF supressor on my line (unbeknownst to me) zero connection with it in place. Was installed sometime in the past before I bought the house.
As an aside, i live ~500m as the crow flies to the antenna, syncing at 100 (107735) interference doesn't appear to be an issue.
First time I have suffered from congestion tonight.
Getting 5/30. But ping times are still good 8ms.
Hopefully just a one off occurrence.
