Users pay the standard rate for an iiNet ADSL2+ business service, depending upon the download quota they need (prices start at $59.95 per month) and then an additional $99 per month for the bonding upgrade. The modem costs $419 and there is $150 or $79.95 set up charge for naked DSL or line shared DSL services respectively.
The modem has been sourced from ZyXEL and supports Annex M, which provides twice the upstream bandwidth (per pair) as the standard ADSL Annex L. It also has stateful packet inspection, anti-denial-of-service attack and port scanning, IGMP proxy/snooping for IP multicast and port-based VLAN to support triple-play services.
Internet says it has tested the modem over real customer lines and has achieved 30.266/2.656Mbps down/up over 1336 metres; 17.533/2.297Mbps over 2585 metres, 31.800/2.102Mbps over 1933 metres; 40.288/3.304Mbps over 145 metres; 15.438/1.862Mbps over 2453 metres and 10.546/2.271Mbps over 3954 metres.
