I'm curious, can an exchange support GPON? Basically I'm asking is, as per the UFB rollout do you have homes connecting to exchanges with GPON fiber?

Technically I think its possible as this is how schools are accessing GPON services without waiting for fibre to be laid in their areas. I don't think Chorus will connect none schools to it though.

No it can't.

As for your continual posts about connectivity, have you yet addressed the comments that were suggested over a year ago to improve your DSL?
