Remote broadband tests on a TV antenna.

Posted by karlos

This a great story, imagine if in another 10 years all those old tv antennas on the roof of every house in Australia could have  been used for wireless internet access...

The NBN would look pretty silly.

THE NBN DOESNT WORK…

Posted by karlos

The NBN is been mismanaged already... it's been designed on the fly, seemingly dependent on the government's agenda...

"we  talked to the Prime Minister; Since then, we've  certainly not seen the 100Mbps speed. It has been much less. On average,  we are downloading at about 30Mbps."

NBN Co spokeswoman Rhonda Griffin suggested the problem was with cabling for which ISPs were responsible. (lol)
