Commonwealth, state and local government representatives have agreed to work on a unified approach to Australia's broadband infrastructure as pressure mounts on the Federal government to insist on a structural separation of Telstra.
Despite calls for an extension to the July deadline for proposals to build the national fibre-to-the-node broadband network, Broadband Minister Stephen Conroy is determined to stick to his schedule.
Telstra CEO Sol Trujillo announced this morning that the company has lodged its AU$5 million tender bond for the national fibre-to-the-node (FTTN) network.
Telstra has refused to confirm reports it will allow rivals to access its proposed national fibre network.
Telstra today reiterated its long-standing argument that it will not invest in its planned high-speed national fibre network unless it can be guaranteed commercial returns on the project.
The news this week that Canberra-based TransACT was going to start rolling out fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) services it announced in May, was at first intriguing.
