  • HSDPA: BigPond vs Vodafone

    High-speed mobile broadband has arrived! We compare Telstra's BigPond Wireless Next G service with Vodafone's HSDPA-enhanced 3G network.

  • BigPond Next G Wireless Broadband Mobile Card

    Fancy a 1.3Mbps broadband pipeline direct to your notebook, without a cable in sight? The new BigPond wireless data card makes good on Telstra's lofty promises for its Next G network.

  • Telstra offers Next G via USB

    Telstra has quietly started offering two new ways of accessing its new nation-wide third-generation Next G mobile network, with two new USB modems now on sale.

  • 3 NetConnect HSDPA ExpressCard

    3's new mobile broadband card is almost a no-brainer: It sprints along on 3's current 3G network and will kick into overdrive following the 3.6Mbps HSDPA network overhaul, slips into notebook ExpessCard and PC Card slots and to top it off, has exceptional pricing plans.

  • Vodafone Mobile Connect 3G HSDPA Card

    Vodafone's enhanced notebook PC Card delivers what the mobile telco calls 'business class 3G broadband' -- but until more of the 3G network is upgraded with HSDPA, most users will remain stuck in economy seats.

  • Telstra BigPond Wireless Broadband

    As long as you're a metropolitan broadband user, Telstra BigPond Wireless Broadband delivers well, but it can't be said to be an inexpensive broadband option.

  • iBurst Wireless Card

    iBurst is a superb wireless broadband solution that's highly useful for the mobile business user, but users who don't require portability will likely find its price to be a deal breaker.

  • Broadband to go: 3G data card round-up

    Road warriors rejoice -- 3G data cards are bringing some long awaited speed to mobile Internet access. We take a look at offerings from the major Australian carriers.

  • Broadband: Which plan is for you?

    The broadband business -- plans, peaks, and penalties -- can be confusing to say the least. We line up some of Australia's best.

  • PSP, high-speed networks to push media forward

    High-powered panelists discuss the evolution of content delivery in the age of convergence and the empowered consumer at the National Cable & Telecommunications Association's annual conference in San Francisco. Panelists include Cisco Systems CEO John Chambers, DreamWorks co-founder Jeffrey Katzenberg, America Online CEO Jonathan Miller, Google co-founder Larry Page and Comcast CEO Brian Roberts.

  • Testing times with broadband

    Complacency by one Internet provider left them with a poor result in our tests but what if this wasn't a test?

  • Unwired Wireless Card

    While the speed and pricing plans make it appealing for those who aren't deskbound, Unwired's Wireless Card is cruelled by the lack of true mobility and the Sydney-only coverage, which itself is undeniably patchy.

  • Linksys WRT54G3G

    The Linksys WRT54G3G does an admirable job of simply and seamlessly sharing a Vodafone 3G data connection.

  • Vodafone Mobile Connect

    Aggressive pricing, a slice of speed-boosting tech and a tempting 'unlimited' downloads plan puts Vodafone in pole position in the race for 3G datacard customers.

  • Optus Wireless Connect

    Optus' combo PC Card ticks every box on the wireless menu, including 3G, GPRS and Wi-Fi, to serve road warriors with a smorgasbord of connectivity.

  • Array D'Ascenzo: Read p23 of security review
    Following yesterday's admission by the Australian Taxation Office that its courier had lost a CD containing the details of 3,000 self-managed super funds, it wants to review how it handles information. My suggestion: go back to the review completed in April.
