Battle of the broadband

www.abc.net.au There’s a battle of broadband polices forming in this election. And if you want faster broadband then you need to know what both parties are offering. If elected, the Coalition will kill Labor’s National Broadband Network (NBN) and spend six billion dollars to encourage the private sector to extend broadband services through a mix of fibre optic and fixed wireless technology.

    The speed and ease with which clips such as this can be upload for all of us, demonstrates the need to support the Labor plan for a national network of fibre to the home.

    At last, some real information. The Background Briefing report was a good start, but have wanted to know more about differentaition of political party policies. The tyranny of distance, a cliche, but also our reality.

    Autralia 50th in the world, even NZ does better at 42nd, ouch. Broadband for education and health/medicine

    For everyone who’s criticizing this, keep in mind how far behind the States are.

    There’s no national worldclass broadband network. There’s no national wi-fi network. On most ISP’s, the best download speed is at most 250 kps. The NBN will be 1 gigabyte per second. You do the math.
