Always an issue in a land suffering from the tyranny of distance and a relative small market place, Australia is often neglected when it comes to gaming infrastructure.  This won’t be so says iiNet as it ramps up gaming servers for the blockbusting Call Of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Most of the attention given to NBN plans has revolved around the residential market, but we're now hearing more about what ISPs have planned for the business sector.

ISP iiNet is to use BMC Software's Remedy IT service management software.

Optus has switched on its first 4G towers in Surfers Paradise and in Brisbane's CBD.

iiNet has launched a range of 4G wireless broadband services over the Optus LTE network. The company says it will use these services to “drive up its product-to-customer ratio”.

Australian companies were prominent among those recognised by Parallels Asia Pacific Partner Awards.

NBN Co has announced NBN for Business, a service that will allow providers to offer up to 50 voice 'lines' to a location.

iiNet has delivered what it says is its "best ever financial result" for the year to 30 June, in which it made two very substantial acquisitions: Internode and TransACT.

Internode says it has doubled the reach of its Naked ADSL2+ broadband services, making them available at a further 400 telephone exchanges across Australia.

iiNet has expanded the capacity it takes on the Southern Cross cable linking Australia, New Zealand and the USA from 20Gbps to 200Gbps.

The acquisition of Internode by iiNet has been followed by a gradual integration. The latest step is the merging of iiNet's 3FL into Internode's games.on.net game site.

Eftel (ASX: EFT) is to acquire the assets of Western Australia based ISP West Australian Networks, which operates under the domain www.westnet.net.au: confusingly similar to that of iiNet's Westnet subsidiary.

ICANN has published the list of applications for the first round of generic top level domains, and there are some surprises.

iiNet-owned broadband provider, Internode, has today started offering its 'best-selling' Easy Broadband ADSL2+ services from an extra 240 telephone exchanges throughout Australia that contain iiNet DSLAM equipment.

Peter James has arrived in the cloud - literally. He arrives for lunch sporting a Ninefold T-shirt, which seems to be his ubiquitous choice of garb these days.

COMMENT Australian ISP iiNet has every reason to feel vindicated today after it was cleared by the High Court of being responsible for its customers' violation of copyright.

Australian copyright police need to wake their American masters with bad news, but the war has just begun.
