It looks like the current top 1000/50 tier might get a bump up to 1000/100 though.
My understanding is that the gigabit tier is only available over FTTP… So why aren’t the speeds symmetric? Practically every other country that has gigabit fibre has symmetric speeds. With more and more people storing data “in the cloud”, upload speeds are more important than ever.
I live in the USA now and even the lowest speed tiers with ISPs offering fibre (300Mbps in my area) are symmetric.

Interesting… My mum couldn’t get it at her place for some reason. She’s with Optus and they said she’d have to wait for fiber to be installed to get the faster plans.
