Australians on NBN Co’s Fixed Wireless Plus plan have experienced further improvements to their broadband speeds following the completion of the company’s fixed wireless upgrade program, the competition watchdog, the ACCC's latest Measuring Broadband Australia report has found.

NBN Co has announced that one million additional homes and businesses will be able to upgrade from fibre to the node or fibre to the curb to a faster fibre to the premises connection, thanks to an extra $2.4 billion from the Australian Government.

A test of 43 modems used on fibre-to-the-node and fibre-to-the-building NBN connections indicates that use of the 5GHz band is much better than 2.4GHz when it comes to Wi-Fi throughput.

Hobart-based digital services provider TasmaNet has partnered with Catholic Education Tasmania to provide Internet connectivity across 27 Catholic schools and all Catholic education offices in the state.

NBN Co wants to vary its special access undertakings (SAU) to include fibre-to-the-node, fibre-to-the-basement and hybrid fibre coaxial technologies to which the SAU will apply.

The first National Broadband Network fibre to the node (FTTN) services have been switched-on in South Australia, with residents of the Adelaide southern suburb of St Marys the first in the state to benefit from the faster broadband.

The National Broadband Network has marked a new milestone with the first FTTN area in Western Australia set to go live from Friday this week in the Perth suburbs of Cannington, Wilson, Langford and Beckenham.
