Question
How to speed up NBN Internet in apartment?
Name: Stuart Hilton
Location: North Melbourne
How much would it cost to remove two unused phone sockets? I'm looking to have a single phone socket for speeding up my NBN connection. I'm in an apartment so no other new wiring is feasible. I'm in Melbourne so any work will need to wait until after Covid lockdown ends. Many thanks.
