Internode trying hard to make broadband easy

Your IT - Home IT

According to Internode, the new plan will provide fast ADSL2+ to all users who have access to exchanges in which the ISP has its DSLAMs. The rest, however, will have to put up with 1.5 Mbps.

Internode promises that as it builds more DSLAMs, customers will automatically migrate to ADSL2+ speeds.

According to Internode, Easy Broadband offers better value than comparable retail broadband plans offered by Telstra and Optus. It also provides better value than the same price point in Internode’s existing plan table.

Hackett said Internode Easy Broadband was an additional plan to Internode’s traditional broadband range.

"Our existing plan table will continue to give a wide range of choices and download-only data quotas to our customers who want them," he said.

"Internode Easy Broadband provides an extra option and a simple life for many new customers. Existing customers are also welcome to move to the Internode Easy Broadband plan if they wish to do so."
