NBN Has Arrived!

As I mentioned in my last post we finally got the internet at our new home, and with the much talked about NBN.

I was really excited about this one, not just because I like the convenience of the internet but historically the NBN is a pretty significant event. As a result I was determined to be present to see it get installed.

It all went smoothly enough, but here's a little known fact - the NBN involves drilling a hole in your home's outside wall. Concequently we received information from our service provider about this to prepare us for the moment well before it was installed. It's a small price to pay to future proof our home.

Once it had finished we were left with 2 really ugly and surprisingly large boxes inside. Whilst they are our connection to the outside world, it's 2013 and the age of small technology - do they really need to be that big? Thank goodness they can be tucked away in a corner:
