A 20-year-old Queensland university student is hoping to use the power of the internet to change the new Coalition Government's mind about the National Broadband Network.

An internet petition calling for the Coalition to scrap its plans to create a fibre-to-the-node network has had more than 110,000 signatures in just five days.

Its creator is a 20-year-old Liberal-voting Queensland business student.

"With Tony Abbott and the Liberal party getting in I think the majority of Australians are happy to have him in the government," Nick Paine said.

"I just felt as far as the National Broadband Network policy (is concerned), I think that was one area that didn't quite reflect the Australian attitude."

Mr Paine created the online petition to protest against the Liberal Party's plans to switch to a $29.5 billion fibre-to-the-node model.

He wants the new government to continue rolling out a $44.1 billion fibre-to-the-premises network.

A fibre-to-the-premises network connects every home and business with optical fibre cables, which provide faster internet.

The Coalition wants a fibre-to-the-node network, which uses optical fibre to street cabinets and then uses Telstra's copper network for the last leg.

It is ultimately slower internet, but it can be rolled out faster and cheaper.

The Coalition says it will guarantee minimum speeds of 50 megabits per second by 2019, whereas NBN Co's fibre-to-the-premises network would provide one gigabit per second, but be finished in 2021.

The incoming Coalition Government's communications spokesman Malcolm Turnbull said a cost-benefit analysis will be conducted.

"It comes as little surprise that people around Australia are waiting for better broadband – after six years of Labor Government there are still two million households whose Internet is so poor they can't even access a YouTube video," he said.

"We will conduct a thorough cost-benefit analysis of this project so that the general public will finally be able to assess what this project is really going to cost in terms of time and dollars and the relative trade-offs of differing approaches to delivering better broadband."
