I've asked AUSNOG community if anyone can figure out which DC is being built in that area. The problem is that although they are apparently near the Telstra Exchange, most fibre, apart from Telstra's isn't delivered from exchanges. If they aren't close to another fibre path then copper MetroE might be optional which can achieve 40mb or so in some cases. Once I have some responses about that particular area I will know more... It looks like some old Glass factory from Google streetmaps if it is right... so who knows. ...Skeeve -- Skeeve Stevens, CEO/Technical Director eintellego Pty Ltd - The Networking Specialists skeeve(a)eintellego.net / www.eintellego.net Phone: 1300 753 383, Fax: (+612) 8572 9954 Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 / skype://skeeve -- NOC, NOC, who's there?

Yes, ADSL2+ is readily available, but...
Knowing Thom and SMX, if they're doing what I think they're doing, then residential-grade services aren't going to cut it. I think he's talking about a real pipe complete with SLAs and all that. Thom, can you confirm?
Cheers

From memory you can have awesome australian DSL 1, which has a
maximum
upload speed of 384 kbit.
ADSL2+ is fairly common these days in Australia. Between the various providers most metro and large cities/towns have one or more

We have our own ports - so I get 13Mbps/2Mbps at my distance from the exchange.
At Tullamarine ADSL2+ is definately available.
MMC
Or ethernet over fibre, for which the install cost is ~$8k AU.
There's probably not a lot of wireless operators in the area either

its the neighbourhood of the airport.
If you do find something useful, please let me know off-list.
