Hi, are there fixed wireless dedicated towers, or does fixed wireless use the same towers that transmit for e.g my phone’s 4G LTE signal
NBN fixed wireless uses its own infrastructure – in some cases this might be colocated with a 4G/5G tower, but the tech itself is separate.
Does the comparison site compare type of service (fttn/fttp) available at the address?
Hi Anne,
You can enter your address into Finder’s address tracker to see what kind of NBN connection type you have at your property: https://www.finder.com.au/nbn-tracker
You will only have one connection type, but depending on your address, if it’s FTTN or FTTC, there may be an option to upgrade to FTTP. You can check if your address is eligible for this upgrade here: https://www.nbnco.com.au/residential/upgrades/more-fibre
Generally speaking though, when you compare FTTN to FTTP, you get more reliable and faster NBN on an FTTP connection than FTTN as high-speed fibre optic cables run directly to your home.
Hope this helps.
