Hello,
I'm looking into getting ADSL transferred to a house in Burbank, QLD (Wildsoet St). I was told by TPG I cannot have ADSL2+ because of 'Fibre to RIM'. Having looked at the maps and so on, I found I was in CA2-DA33 area.

What I'm wondering is why the previous owner could get ADSL but I can't move my TPG? Someone suggested that there might be a tophat fitted to the local cabinet (I can't find an approximate street address for the cabinet to Google-maps it, or walk/drive to it).
I would appreciate someone elses interpretation of the Telsta wholesale data, because I believe that it indicates:
- CA2-DA33 has a CAN 'site_name' of G2
- The DSLAM ID is QCPBAE4005M
- It appears to cover DA33/34
Based on the approximate size of the area, I'd probably expect that my ADSL uplink would be pretty good because I physically can't be *that* far from the top hat - but I'm wondering if someone can confirm this?
The other slightly more depressing outcome is that the 5.3km from exchange distance means I'll be lucky to get 2mbit.
Cheers in advance,
-SteveG
