Telstra has decided not to participate in the government's controversial ISP filtering trial, for which expressions of interest were due today.
Primus Telecom has launched a mobile broadband service which will be speed-shaped once the data quota has been reached, instead of charging excess.
The G9 consortium announced the appointment of former NSW state Treasurer Michael Egan as its national broadband network (NBN) bid chairman, amid mounting concern over the July deadline for proposals.
Telstra has hit back at accusations from rivals that its decision to turn on ADSL2+ in 900 exchanges across Australia was the latest example of the telco "losing a game of chicken with the government".
update: A group of Telstra's rivals known as the G9 has formally lodged their proposal for a nationwide fibre broadband network with the competition regulator.
In a massive "special edition" of our telco podcast Twisted Wire, we talk to virtually everyone in the telecommunications industry about the break-up of Telstra, including man of the moment, Communications Minister Stephen Conroy.
Hot on the heals of the release of a new Communications Alliance discussion paper, Phil Dobbie spoke to four industry players to tackle some of the fundamental questions that the industry, and hopefully the government, are asking.
Is the NBN announcement a good thing? The industry at large seems to say yes. The Opposition is less sold on the idea, as you'll hear from Nick Minchin.
The inference that Soul, AAPT and TransACT were Dead Telcos Walking long before their withdrawals were announced makes me wonder whether Terria has always been, God help us all, just as flimsy a proposition as Telstra has made it out to be.
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.
