The nbn is heading to Cedar Pocket to provide the local community with the information they need to take advantage of fixed wireless superfast broadband and ask any questions or raise concerns about the proposed fixed wireless network.

The nbn already has 24 fixed wireless facilities delivering nbn™ services to more than 6,300 homes and businesses across the Gympie Regional and Fraser Coast local government areas, and another 20 facilities are approved and awaiting completion.

Along with fixed wireless, the nbn™ is using a mix of technologies, including fixed line and satellite to deliver high speed broadband to Australians. Under the minimum speeds that all technologies on the nbn™ network is designed to provide, Queensland families can all be online at the same time, enjoying the same fast broadband connection, using multiple devices.¹

A Community Information Session for local residents and businesses interested in finding out more about the nbn™ Fixed Wireless and Fixed Line Networks and its benefits will be on Wednesday 10 February 2016.

 

Cedar Pocket Community Information Session:

When: 3pm – 6pm, Wednesday 10 February 2016

Your experience including the speeds actually achieved over the nbn^TM network depends on the technology over which services are delivered to your premises and some factors outside our control like your equipment quality, software, broadband plans and how your service provider designs its network.
