I am not sure that it really works that way. They buy the bandwidth in blocks. It is not even a matter of being near the particular node either. It is the POI (Point of Interconnect) with the NBN, which thanks to the ACCC there are 140 odd or around the country instead of the 7 that NBN originally proposed.

If they do not buy enough capacity into your POI (Either backhaul to get to it or between themselves and the NBN within it) then you will see congestion.

NBN actually changed the way the services were sold some time back and it is likely to be less of an issue now.
