No no no !!!
The new roll out is fiber to the curb, that is all.
The home owner will pay for the fiber connection to their house - as it should have been with the dud Rudd and Conroy scenario!
So Dave - if you want the faster speeds on offer, then you will have to pay for it - I bet you're not used to that - mind you there might be a seat on the pensioners gravy train for you for sure!
"The Federal Government said the upgrade would involve expanding the Fibre To The Node (FTTN) system by building "local fibre networks" that would run along street fronts, enabling people to connect their homes directly to the network when they wanted.
"Very importantly, it will be based on the principle of demand," Communications Minister Paul Fletcher said.
"So we'll roll the fibre down the street, but then the fibre lead into the home will only be built when there's a customer order."
