Western Australian internet service provider iiNet took an extra 47,500 broadband customers over the past year, and also added over 67,000 naked DSL subscribers.
WA based ISP iiNet has launched its naked DSL service today -- where customers can take broadband without an accompanying phone line -- the first of its kind to be made available on a large scale basis in Australia.
ASX-listed ISP iiNet is to buy fellow West Australian service provider Westnet for AU$81 million in cash.
Broadband ISP iiNet is considering reselling mobile phone and mobile data services. The company also hopes to replace Optus as the second largest broadband player in Australia, according to Greg Bader, the company's chief technology officer.
Internode has announced a roadmap for the rollout of naked DSL services -- broadband access without a phone line subscription -- but claims it's being careful to avoid some of the challenges faced by fellow naked provider iiNet.
Telcos would love to shift the cost of expanding mobile network coverage to customers with femtocells, but are they a good idea for customers?
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.
Voice over IP has reached some major milestones in 2008 in both the enterprise and consumer ends of the market but how long can traditional telcos continue to fight against this disruptive technology?
