Internet service provider (ISP) iiNet will invest a further AU$15 million into expanding its ADSL2+ network which should increase its coverage to 90 percent of metropolitan Australia, the ISP announced today.
Telstra has officially switched on over 900 ADSL2+ exchanges, amid allegations of spin by the telco over its decision to back down on the issue of regulation.
Rural and regional Australians are still out in the cold despite the fact Australia's DSL market shake-up last year prompted independent carriers to install more than 70,000 ports of ADSL infrastructure.
Primus Telecom Australia has its sights set on a market of half the Australian population with the initial deployment of new digital subscriber line (DSL) network infrastructure.
Internet service provider TPG has outlined plans to install ADSL2+ infrastructure in 250 telephone exchanges nationwide by the end of 2006, with several capital cities expected to receive services from March or April next year.
There's something immensely gratifying about accomplishing the seemingly impossible -- particularly in IT, where pundits regularly proclaim that a particular technology has hit its physical limits.
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.
