Browse Forums Building A New House Re: NBN and HFC from across the street 12Sep 12, 2018 4:21 pm barry157 Hey there, still no progress on the NBN front for me. My KDR is in the Manningham area, and our street is only ready for HFC next month according to the NBN website. My build has finished, and the electrician ran the P20 conduit to the footpath in preparation. Fingers crossed and I'll report back in Nov. I am hanging out for NBN as we've been dealing with rubbish 4g wireless from Vivid (Optus) which is pretty slow at night time. How have you gotten on? Nearly at lockup but weary of lead times with NBN etc so trying to be ahead of the game. Did you have to fill in any forms for pits etc? Re: NBN and HFC from across the street 13Jul 03, 2019 3:26 pm Just picking up on this again but I have successfully coaxed NBN to get me underground cabling. I was initially knocked back but I had to convince Telstra/NBN on multiple fronts that going overhead was not going to happen. The cable now runs overhead to the nearest power pole where the coax runs into a new telco pit. From there it gets trunked to the leadin at the front of my house. NBN normally charge around 3.5k for a new pit so I feel very fortunate to get this for free. Thanks for clarifying. Sorry I misunderstood your point 7 6971 Hi all. I'm thinking of installing an electric gate in front of this street front villa (link below). The gate would be between the bush on the left and the letter box on… 0 2774 Thanks! I'm spoke to the builder I'm not sure if this is all true but basically went along the lines of they considered all options and if I was to compact and fill it… 2 6388 |
