Full-fibre NBN upgrades available in Umina next year
Households and businesses in Umina will be eligible for "full-fibre NBN upgrades" next year, according to Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid.
"Upgrades will be available on-demand where an eligible household orders a higher speed plan than would currently be available to them over copper," he said.
"World-class fibre broadband means faster upload and download speeds, and a more reliable connection for local residents.
"The benefits are even more pronounced for larger households if many devices are used, as higher speeds means the whole family can be online at the same time."
Dr Reid said: "I'm proud to belong to a Government that's delivering on its plan for a better NBN.
"These investments will make a meaningful difference to the quality-of-life for locals.
"This is a nation-shaping investment, ensuring more Australians can take advantage of an increasingly digital global economy."
He said that NBN Co did not expect any disruption to fibre-to-the-node customers in areas eligible for an upgrade to fibre-to-the-premises.
