VPNs for ad-blocking The NBN Technology Choice Program was offered as a way for those homes not serviced by FTTP to pay for a quote that then, if you went ahead with the upgrade, would usually cost a whole lot more to actually have the current technology converted to FTTP. These additional costs cover the actual build of switching your home to FTTP. Currently, you can get a free quote for a single premises, but there is still the option for a group switch (teaming up with neighbours) or making a case for an area switch (teaming up with your neighbourhood), but those latter two options aren’t as straightforward as getting an online quote for just your home.

Step 1: Visit the NBN Technology Choice Program website. Step 2: Select ‘Get a quote and apply’. Step 3: Input your address, name, and email address in the relevant fields. You may get a notification about your current technology type and potential alternative fibre upgrade options. Step 4: Read and tick the checkbox (if you’re authorised to receive a quote), then hit the ‘Generate quote’ button. Step 5: You should receive an email with a link to a quote that’s valid for 24 hours. Click on the ‘View your quote now’ link when you get the email to view your quote.

The property we tested it with is a Fibre-to-the-Curb (FTTC) apartment, which has a fibre connection just outside of the apartment. We were quoted $9,898 (including GST) to shift from FTTC to FTTP. So, yeah, it ain’t cheap.
