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.
Telstra will be forced to keep meticulous records on activities in its telephone exchanges, according to new regulations designed to alleviate complaints by other telcos.
The nation's number two telco Optus today outlined a number of new and renewed enterprise customer wins as part of its quarterly financial results statement.
From 25 June, the nation's number two telco Optus will no longer sell fixed-line telephony and broadband services to consumer customers outside the planned range of its own network.
Two of Telstra's biggest competitors have backed up their public complaints about the cost of accessing the heavyweight's copper network with formal requests for the nation's competition regulator to step in.
How much should Telstra be charging for unconditioned local loop?
