Internode will deploy some AU$3.5 million of broadband infrastructure through rural South Australia in a new project responding to the needs of a regional group of local councils.
ADSL2+ and optical fibre are the only technologies good enough for the Port Augusta City Council's planned new network.
update The construction of Internet service provider TPG Internet's ADSL2+ broadband network is behind schedule, the company revealed today.
The Northern Territory government has bitterly complained about a lack of competition in the telecommunications market that it claims has led to it paying Telstra three to five times more for some communications services than the rest of the nation.
The pressure on Telstra's broadband business has ratcheted up a notch, with Sydney wireless provider Unwired today launching new 'high-speed Internet' plans targeting dial-up users and slashing its current broadband plan prices.
Telstra's 21Mbps Next-G boost and Internode's new 100Mbps FttH networks may be both companies' show ponies, but when it comes to helping most of us, their need-for-speed posturing is just a box-and-dice distraction that we've all seen before.
