Hello,

So like the title says, I'm getting NBN soon from TPG 12mbps (to be exact 31st of January) and am wondering how fast is it compared to normal ADSL2+

All I know, is that with iinet I'm paying the same as what I used to for ADSL2, but getting lower speeds due to their cap.

My speeds went from 10/5 to 22/10.. Which is great.. Except the reliability of the connection has dropped so drastically, that I now pay an additional $65 a month for 4g backup. In the past I would get around 900 hours between disconnections, and now I average 3 hours.

Got Tier 5 speed with FTTP, getting 90+Mbps

If you have a reasonable adsl2+ connection then the base nbn plans offered by the big sellers will be slower with both up and download speeds. I had to step my plan up a level (and pay more) just to retain the similar speeds.

  That doesn't sound right. I guess it would depend on what type of MTN you are getting NBN on.
