Used to have ADSL2+ here, and had a solid 21/1Mbps. Switched to NBN as soon as it came here, and for the first six months paid for 100/50 and received a nice 70/35 tops via an FTTN connection.

Then suddenly early December last year I dropped out for a day and it came back to 35/15. Still better than the old ADSL but hardly any kind of groundbreaking. I dropped down to paying for a 50/20 plan and it's doing the job. for now.

For most of my work it's enough. The connection does seem a touch more fragile than the old ADSL2+ which would drop out every couple of months for a few minutes, as opposed to once a week now for the same amount of time. Neither a big inconvenience.

It irks me that the rubbish copper network is being used as if it's some kind of great cost saving when it forced such a change to the design of the network and essentially just kept us off fibre.
