Let me share with colleagues what Mr McGuinness had to say about his new super-fast fibre-to-the-node NBN connection. As I mentioned before, he is a resident of Umina, who recently connected to the network. He runs a small business that rents out boats on the Central Coast and often works from home. This is what Mr McGuinness has to say: 'Since connecting to my Telstra NBN service, the faster download times have helped me save 10 to 15 minutes off my daily work schedule. This roughly gives me an extra day off each month.' He went on the say that the NBN is also bringing us closer to the opportunities of other Australians.
