The Australian Competition Tribunal's (ACT) decision to wind back regulated access to Telstra's wholesale network has outraged the telecommunications sector.
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.
Internet service provider Netspace today announced the activation of 10 DSLAMs (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) in Tasmania.
Optus this morning announced it would offer naked DSL broadband plans, as well as broadband offerings provided on a "month-to-month" basis.
Perth-based internet service provider Westnet has started trialling ADSL2+ services using its new parent iiNet's broadband network, with a formal launch date likely to come before the end of the year.
Telcos would love to shift the cost of expanding mobile network coverage to customers with femtocells, but are they a good idea for customers?
Streaker Robert Ogilvie may have learned the hard way that getting naked can be painful, but many other Australians are apparently learning the same lesson as they try to break ties with Telstra once and for all.
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.
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?
iiNet CEO Michael Malone talks about how successful the ISP's naked DSL service has been since it was launched in December.
iiNet's CTO Greg Bader admits that Naked DSL is 'one of the hardest products to get connected to' because it is beyond the ISPs control. He also admits to 'not having much joy' working with Telstra in making the switching process simpler.
