Broadband Minister Stephen Conroy has hit back at criticism the government's fibre-to-the-node tender documents are far too light on detail, saying they were designed that way.
Optus has threatened to pull out of the fibre-to-the-node (FTTN) tender process unless the government approves operational separation for Telstra and a delay to the bid deadline, while Telstra has threatened to withdraw if it does.
While the news of a three-month delay to the closure of Telstra's CDMA network has been welcomed by many, a number of problems still haunt Next G.
Telstra claims it wants to adhere to Broadband Minister Stephen Conroy's request for details about its network infrastructure but will not yet do so because it is worried the information will help terrorists and threaten national security.
It's not too late for the government to break up the "monster" that is Telstra via structural separation, according to leader of the Australian Democrats, Senator Lyn Allison.
