Rural and regional Australians are still out in the cold despite the fact Australia's DSL market shake-up last year prompted independent carriers to install more than 70,000 ports of ADSL infrastructure.
Internet service provider iiNet has announced plans to roll out DSLAMs into an additional 111 exchanges, of which 86 will be in Sydney. And competitor Netspace has just released a whole new range of unlimited plans.
Primus Telecom has today launched a new DSL broadband Internet service claimed to deliver high speed services at up to 6Mbps.
Is it the technology you can't do without or an expense you don't need? We examine the alternatives, pitfalls, myths, and benefits.
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.
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.
While everyone was distracted by the NBN, a revolution was under way in the supply of fixed line broadband.
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.
NetComm have offered a small scale DSLAM designed for hotels, serviced apartments or serviced offices. We found it to be a very robust device which is easy to deploy and manage.
The broadband business -- plans, peaks, and penalties -- can be confusing to say the least. We line up some of Australia's best.
