The Code Red II virus is spreading three times as fast as the original version, and the majority of attacking IPs here in Australia belong to Internet Service Providers, ZDNet has learned.
While Telstra and Australia's main ISPs continue in a monumental struggle over wholesale pricing of broadband services, state governments across the country are side stepping the dispute by supporting the development of broadband infrastructure.
John Rolland, a key member of David Moffat's group and a driver behind Telstra's ISP BigPond since the 1990s has ended his 15-year stint with Telstra.
The federal government yesterday called for expressions of interest from internet service providers to conduct a live pilot of the controversial internet content filtering pilot it is planning.
Telstra's BigPond ISP is trying its hand where so many others have struggled -- launching mobile TV over 3G.
The Olympics are nearly over, and the Australian team deserves kudos for an excellent performance all around. Yet even as the Olympic sun sets on the Bird's Nest for the last time this weekend, millions of spectators around the world will be scanning their dials in the hope of finding something else to fill their viewing hours.
In telecoms, Telstra is no 800 pound gorilla. It's an 800 pound colic-ridden infant, irritably throwing its toys out of the pram when it doesn't get its own way.
Post-election adrenaline surging through his veins, one of the first acts performed by new Communications Minister Stephen Conroy was to disband the expert panel that his predecessor Helen Coonan had appointed last June to evaluate tenders for fibre-to-the-node (FTTN) construction.
Net neutrality has the superficial attraction of 1960's free love, argues Telstra's Justin Milne, until you realise that one party gets all the gratification while the other bears all the costs.
IBRS advisor Guy Cranswick argues that the use of net neutrality is an aggressive manoeuvre to retain market share and withhold change in the telecommunications market.
The leaders of three of Australia's largest ISP's have declared the Net neutrality debate as solely a US problem and further, that the nation that pioneered the internet might want to study the Australian market for clues as to how to solve the dilemma.
It's been an exceptionally busy period for the nation's largest Internet service provider, but all for the wrong reasons.
Telstra plans to launch in the next few days a mini help-desk software tool for its BigPond Internet customer base as part of its AU$100 million package to shore up its Internet service provider arm.

Reading over the results from the Australian Broadband Survey for 2004 confirms what many ZDNet Australia readers have written about over the past year: Telstra drastically needs to improve its BigPond service.
Complacency by one Internet provider left them with a poor result in our tests but what if this wasn't a test?
The broadband business -- plans, peaks, and penalties -- can be confusing to say the least. We line up some of Australia's best.
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 Internet is in the process of taking over our lives, so if you aren't connected, maybe it is time you were.
