One of my friends was part of the original NBN trial in Brunswick. I also lived in Brunswick but unfortunately I was a few blocks outside the test area. That was back in 2009 or 2010, and if I remember correctly it was 100Mbps down and 40Mbps up via FTTP.

15 years later, there’s still a lot of people with connections slower than that. My mum’s on a 12Mbps plan. Meanwhile the slowest speed I can get in the USA is 300Mbps.
