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.
NEC Australia's DSL wholesale division has flagged plans to move its network infrastructure to the next-generation ADSL2+ standard.
The Australian competition regulator today challenged Telstra to switch on ADSL2+ broadband services nation-wide, saying the telco could easily gain regulatory certainty on rival access.
NEC Australia's NEXTEP DSL wholesale division will speed up the ongoing upgrade of its broadband infrastructure to the ADSL2+ standard as part of an access agreement announced today with Internet service provider People Telecom.
Telecom New Zealand yesterday launched its new XT 3G mobile network at a ritzy event in Auckland. But the network hasn't gone live yet, which is likely due to new hardware being installed to curb interference that is causing rival Vodafone a headache.
Streaker Robert Ogilvie may have learned the hard way that getting naked can be painful, but many other Australians are apparently learning the same lesson as they try to break ties with Telstra once and for all.
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 DSL-2740B is a modem and router that offers a good balance between price and features, with a slightly shaky performance.
Billion's myGuard 7500GL is an excellent wireless ADSL router for SOHO users. Its security features include QoS control, VPN access, a firewall and Trend Micro services.
NetComm Turbo 7 Series Wireless Gateway provides an easy set-up, good coverage and modest speed. While this system gives you the advantage of portable wireless gateway, wireless services are less reliable and cannot match ADSL2 speeds.
The broadband business -- plans, peaks, and penalties -- can be confusing to say the least. We line up some of Australia's best.
