FTTN switched on at GORO yesterday

As it is one of the first let see what ACTUAL usage shows us.

Many of my students are thrilled to actually be able to get broadband - some have had orders waiting for over a year waiting to be connected when a dslam port opened up. In the interest of fairness I must say that GORO was not the initial 5 year rollout plan for FTTP, so anything in less than 5 years is a welcome relief..

Riddle me this - If the costs/times have blown out for the fftn model, where there was a publically available costing model - by how much more would they have blown out in the fttp model, given the original business case costings were literally done on a coaster on RAAF 1 ?
