iiNet has reduced the minimum contract for its fetchtv IPTV service and added a new range of free content.

Australia's largest NBN service provider, iiNet, says it will be the first company to offer NBN services across all three access methods - fibre, satellite and wireless.

The integration of Internode with its new owner iiNet continues with the pooling of unmetered content.

iiNet - a reseller of the Fetch TV IPTV service - has come out swinging against Foxtel's latest attempt to get the ACCC to OK its plans to acquire Austar.

Parallels offers automation software to make hosting and as-a-service providers more efficient, and there's more to come.

Eftel (ASX: EFT) has released details of the NBN based services to be offered under its consumer brand, ClubTelco.

DSL broadband provider, iiNet, has released details of its switch to 'anytime quota' on selected plans, which it says will give its customers the flexibility to travel the Internet without the worry of managing their peak and off-peak quotas.

ISP iiNet will seek to register the .iinet top level domain. It appears to be the first Australian company in the telecommunications industry to reveal such plans.

IPTV provider FetchTV has added a Cantonese pack to its range of options.

iiNet and its group of subsidiary companies, including Westnet, Netspace, AAPT, Internode and TransACT, have announced a relief package for customers affected by the recent flooding in areas of New South Wales.

iiNet bragged this week about "record half year earnings with growth across key financial and operating metrics." However one market analyst sees the results in a very different light.

iiNet has lifted revenue for the six months to 31 December by 11 percent over the same period last year, to $365m and EBITDA by 36 percent to $56.4m ï‚· NPAT was up 17 percent to $14.4m.

Earlier this week, I wrote a story about my personal experience with what I considered to be sub-standard service from Australia's second largest ADSL provider iiNet. For my trouble, the boss of that company has chosen to shoot the messenger and broadcast what I believe to be factual inaccuracies about this episode.

Internode today started offering ,what it says is its best-selling Easy Broadband plans, throughout Darwin after turning on high-speed broadband equipment installed at four metropolitan telephone exchanges in the city.

iiNet is now Australia's second largest internet service provider as far as ADSL connections go and a technically sound ISP, going by by my own experience. But when it comes to the other sides of its business, like support and sales, iiNet is no better than any other ISP - in fact, in my view it is much worse than many.

iiNet has announced plans to expand its DSLAM network to enable it connect some 38,500 households and businesses in Darwin and Regional Queensland.
