Broadband provider Internode has cut $10 a month from many of its SOHO broadband plans and launching its first sub-$40 ADSL2+ service.The $39.95 Home-Extreme-Explorer service offers the same price and same five-gigabyte monthly download quota as first generation broadband plans running at just half a megabit per second.
Other initiatives announced include $59.95 SOHO plans with the same speed and download quota, plus a static IP address and high-speed Annex M downloads.
Internode has also carved $10 off the price of most of its current SOHO broadband plans – except SOHO-Extreme and SOHO-NakedExtreme – so they cost just $10 more than Internode Home broadband plans.
“The $10 price reduction on most SOHO plans is an automatic bestowal for existing customers from their next billing date, giving small businesses a pre-Christmas gift,” said Internode product manager Jim Kellett. “The introduction of an entry-level ADSL2+ plan for $39.95 is another initiative to make high-speed broadband more affordable for people.”
Internode’s Extreme broadband services are available from the more than 100 telephone exchanges in WA, SA, Victoria, NSW, Queensland and Tasmania where it has installed its own broadband equipment.
Internode has also introduced NakedExtreme ‘New Service Connections’, which provide a new way to obtain a dialtone-free broadband service – Internode NakedExtreme ADSL2+ – without the disruption of converting an existing telephone line.
