I'll really annoy you by saying that VDSL2 (the tech you are using) supports up to around 250mbit throughput but no Aussie ISP has enabled that option. Your modem probably already supports it because its a pretty old standard.
Enjoy, have a nice day.
FTTN can in theory get higher speeds, but hardly anyone has a line short and high quality enough to actually achieve them so NBN Co doesn't even bother.
FTTC can provide these sorts of speeds, FTTN, not so much. VDSL2 can deliver 250Mbit/s at around 200m.
Yeah, I was on FTTN until last year and my connection was maxed out at 48mbps. I jumped on the FTTP upgrade as soon as I could.
