Telstra has revealed that for the first time, there are more subscribers to its third generation Next G network than its 2G CDMA counterparts, with over one million users adopting 3G technology.
Telstra has denied there will be any delay to the planned switch-off of its CDMA network -- despite concern from the government its replacement Next G may not be good enough yet.
With the planned switch-off date for Telstra's CDMA network just weeks away, a crucial report into the replacement Next G network that could stymie the closure has suffered delays.
Despite Telstra's pledges that Next G network provides equal or better coverage than CDMA, federal Communications Minister Helen Coonan still foresees a delay to the switch off.
Telstra has announced its Next G network rollout will be completed ahead of schedule, despite government fears that the deployment couldn't meet expectations.
Last week, a family friend rang for some technical help. "Telstra sold me this wireless Internet service and they promised it would work both at my home and at my office," he said. Said home is in the Melbourne CBD, and said office is in Kyneton, a lovely town about an hour away from Melbourne.
