Optus this morning announced a AU$150 million rollout of its own broadband Internet digital subscriber line (DSL) equipment to hundreds of exchanges around Australia.
Internet Service Provider TPG is poised to unveil plans to roll out its own ADSL broadband infrastructure.
Within two months, Internode will tackle customers who have previously sat in ADSL black spots, by offering its new naked service up to seven kilometres from its own exchange network.
Technical issues specific to Powertel's network have temporarily prevented the business-focused telco from installing Chinese networking vendor Huawei's DSLAM equipment.
A decision by embattled telco AAPT to invest in its own ADSL network would be "high-risk" and could make the business less attractive to suitors in the event of a sale, according to telecommunications research firm Ovum.
How much should Telstra be charging for unconditioned local loop?
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.
While everyone was distracted by the NBN, a revolution was under way in the supply of fixed line broadband.
The broadband business -- plans, peaks, and penalties -- can be confusing to say the least. We line up some of Australia's best.
