Get an ABN. Call yourself a business. Go with a big no nonsense provider and pay for installation with mobile backup for the base level speed.
My home phone was threatened with termination if I did not NBN. Then it did not work. And it did not work ....and it did not work, after a year of off and on The wires in the street were repaired. Again my business wires were faultless and except for the older relatives I would have cancelled the home spam phone.
Where the old self powered system was foolproof. Shame we could not have NBN for those who wanted internet, and the old self powered phone for those who did not. The installation was free , but then so was the pain.

Any thoughts?
