Internet service provider (ISP) iiNet will invest a further AU$15 million into expanding its ADSL2+ network which should increase its coverage to 90 percent of metropolitan Australia, the ISP announced today.
Perth-based Internet service provider (ISP) Amcom Telecommunications has announced a range of 'up to 8Mbps' ADSL plans designed to exploit the DSLAM rollout it outlined last year.
