VoIP tests by Australian DSL ISP
« on: March 05, 2004, 01:17:59 PM »
From PCWorld News, Swiftel is testing a VoIP service over their ADSL-based system. Swiftel director Colin Marland says the "hybrid VoIP" service 'operates through an interface (black box) that converts the Voice over IP (VoIP) transmission from the customer's DSL Internet connection to analogue at the gateway between the PSTN and IP networks.'

Original Story : Swiftel to offer DSL users an extra phone line.

I guess I'd be bragging, but our organization already has VoIP over DSL deployed. Many employees have VPN and VoIP access from thier homes and remote offices as if they were sitting at a desk with a computer and phone in their office. Very cool cisco equipment. Some day many of us will probally work from home on similar equipment. Cost a bunch though, but in time it will get cheap enough for the masses.

So, the Austrailians finally get some DSL services going.  What was it--5 years ago that us consumers started to get DSL services in the USA?

I don't know just how long DSL has been available in Australia. Its only since I've owned my A1 that I've had a system able to take advantage of the fact that there is NOW enough choise to pick a BUDGET Service.

There is even a FORUM devoted to Australian Broadband discussion

Tell me more about Simon Wright…    Simon Wright joined Big Pond Cable in February 1998. He is an independent web designer during the day, and runs Whirlpool in the evening as his personal hobby.   1.6  Who hosts this site?    The original Whirlpool was hosted off Simon Wright's cable internet connection, before user-to-user traffic was metered.
