Following a planning and consultation phase, the fixed wireless network will be installed in Gilgandra and can provide broadband to homes and businesses in the areas surrounding Gilgandra and Balladoran.
NBN Co's community relations adviser Tony Gibbs said residents were encouraged to visit the NBN Co website to see if their home or business was included in the coverage via the interactive map: www.nbnco. com.au/rollout/rollout-map.
"The NBN also means you can get the whole family on line at once, opening up opportunities for local farms, businesses and the wider region to participate in the digital age," Mr Gibbs said.
