The Australian Competition Tribunal's (ACT) decision to wind back regulated access to Telstra's wholesale network has outraged the telecommunications sector.
Australia's largest telecommunications companies are considering developing a code of practice governing consumers' switching between DSL broadband service providers. The move comes amid claims Telstra is imposing barriers to consumers wishing to switch away from its retail DSL broadband offering.
The number of businesses deploying DSL has almost doubled in the last year, and nine out of ten customers are happy with their ISP, according to a survey by IDC.
Most Australian service providers are pushing the wrong DSL services on to customers, with -sting in the tail" pricing to boot, hampering the uptake of broadband in the local market.
Is it the technology you can't do without or an expense you don't need? We examine the alternatives, pitfalls, myths, and benefits.
Since last November when iiNet very loudly launched its naked DSL product, "naked" has been on everybody's lips, and it seemed like everybody was in on it. Some, however have held out. This round-up of 13 ISPs looks into who's got it, who doesn't and who wants to.
The broadband business -- plans, peaks, and penalties -- can be confusing to say the least. We line up some of Australia's best.
