I'de just like to be able to get guaranteed ADSL of ANY type here in Perth.
The average (maximum) speed for suburbs around Hazelmere and South Guildford is 1Mb up 100k down. Most of South Guildford can get above that but is not on an ADSL2 enabled exchange.

90% of the phone lines in these areas are still on RIM technology with Telstra planning to upgrade their infrastructure *real soon*. It's been like this for 5 years.

It's taken my company - working together with AAPT, an average of 5-8 weeks to get new ADSL keyed lines installed in this area. Thats TWO MONTHS for a line that cannot do ADSL2 and can barely break the 1 meg barrier. And then AAPT charges $2000 a month for the managed VPN service on that 1M connection.

Where is Hazelmere you might ask? It's the suburb next to Perth Airport - barely 12km from the CBD in one of the fastest growing industrial estates in Western Australia.

Explain to me why the NBN is a bad thing for businesses and people again or how it's too expensive?
