Stories about: iiNet

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation has launched a new on-demand Internet broadcasting service.

iiNet has declared that the Rudd government's National Broadband Network (NBN) will be a failure with higher fees for customers, fewer ISPs and a decline in innovation and competition if the current access and regulatory regime is not "dramatically reformed".

iiNet customers will now get free access to the most popular football competition in the world, the English Premier League.

The arrival of Optus ADSL2 will kick-off the critical mass needed to get the ADSL2 ball rolling, according to the chairman of the Service Providers Association (SPAN), John Kranenburg.

Thousands more Australians will be set to benefit from broadband internet at up to 8Mbps once the acquisition of OzEmail by iiNet is finalised.

iiNet on Tuesday announced it has bought OzEmail's consumer Internet business from MCI in a deal valued at $110 million. This will see it become the nation's third largest ISP behind Telstra and Optus.

ISPs are advising consumers previously unable to sign up to ADSL service because of their geographic location to re-check their eligibility, following Telstra Wholesale’s decision to push the reach of its ADSL network from 3.5km to 4km from the exchange.

ISPs are calling for the ACCC to investigate Telstra’s latest cut-price ADSL broadband product offering, pointing out the $29.95 retail price tag is in fact higher than the cost of porting a customer on the telco’s wholesale network.

The most popular and accessible broadband service in Australia is ADSL, which uses an ordinary telephone line to deliver high-speed Internet access. In this column, we’ll look at connecting a Linux computer to an ADSL connection using both Bridged Ethernet and PPPoE- based connections.

Broadband service provider iiNet has revamped its bliink ADSL broadband product offerings, introducing bigger peak download limits across all of its home broadband plans.

ISP iiNet has offered its NSW ADSL broadband customers an extra week’s worth of credit on their usage bill as an apology for network outages experienced across the state earlier this month.
