Disclaimers

*nbn takes reasonable care and skill to ensure the end customer's ability to connect to the nbn network after pre-installation of the nbn connection box but cannot guarantee uninterrupted service or immediate connectivity in all situations. Further visits from an nbn certified technician may be required. The end customer should contact their provider for assistance with any connectivity issues and additional equipment that may be required.

^Network availability is defined as the percentage of time the nbn network is available and operating. For this measure, the network is considered ‘unavailable’ during the time nbn is restoring services following the raising of a fault. It does not include periods where the network is unavailable due to operational outages for matters such as network upgrades and improvements or events beyond nbn’s control. This metric has been rounded to the nearest two decimal places.
