Hello all,

Unfortunately I have had to increase the labor rate in line with the times. We have not raised price for over 10 years. Formerly $80 for first hour and $50 there after but now a flat $80 per hour.

I am glad to announce in addition to cash/bank transfer we now accept card payments (1.9% surcharge applies)

Possibly the biggest zero-day vulnerability in computing history has occurred. 'Log4J'

Its unlikely to effect us end users as hackers will target servers etc but still a good idea to update your Java client and keep running Windows update over coming days to ensure Windows defender gets the update and all should be good.

Hundreds of millions of devices are likely affected.

Make sure you iiNet formerly transact VDSL customers stick with what you got and get compensation if need be.

Canberra is in a very unique situation in that transact implemented FTTN technology years ago well before NBN Co even existed.

NBN Co will reimburse households and businesses in Canberra after it admitted to misleading consumers into thinking they would lose their internet services if they failed to switch to the NBN.

Hi all, with Nbn slowly but surely rolling out throughout Canberra you might be wondering which ISP to go with. A lot of people will stick with their current ISP, but you might not be getting the best value for money or speeds, the big companies often over charge and over conjest their networks and you will see slow downs, especially in peak times. Launtel have arrived in Canberra, originally located exclusively Tasmania. They offer FTTN and FTTP connections. And shortly will be providing up to 1gigabit speeds for those lucky people with FTTP. You pay a daily rate for service with no contract and can adjust the speeds for a super quick gigabit weekend and back down to a very quick 100mbit for normal use. Check them out and see why they have so many satisfied customers.

Canberra, we've just activated Fibre to the Node!

We launched pure fibre (FTTP) nbn connections last week in Canberra, but people with Fibre to the Node nbn were missing out. And there were LOTS of requests...

Of course an uncongested network from $2.10 per day that you can pause when you go on holiday (among all the other great features) has been pretty popular!

So what should we do?

We thought we should turn on the FTTN network across many areas of Canberra. And we have!

Get a free 7 day trial and lock in your discount for a year for the first 250 people connected.

Thanks for your support so far Canberra, it's been unreal! 💚

An awesome build completed for a customer. Amazing rgb control from the cpu cooler, memory, motherboard and the very impressive nzxt fans. He even has hue lighting in room to compliment it. A very epic setup for a young gamer.
