Existing premises behind surge in NBN uptake | ZDNet: "A surge in the uptake of services on the National Broadband Network (NBN) in the last five months has been thanks to a large increase in activations for existing housing premises, according to the latest round of weekly rollout data provided by NBN Co.

The company yesterday released the second of its new weekly rollout information, revealing that in the last week, an additional 12,130 premises were passed by the fibre network, including 7,926 brownfields premises and 2,100 greenfields premises, to bring the total premises passed by fibre to 304,840, with 232,017 of those able to order a service on the NBN.

Retailers activated a total of 2,632 services for the week, including 2,100 on the fibre and 532 on the satellite and wireless networks. There are now a total of 109,862 premises connected to the NBN."
