Critical Information Summary ADSL
This summary gives you the important information you need to know about your plan. It covers things like the length of your contract, how much you need to pay each month, what’s included and what’s not.
Information about the Service
Your plan gives you access to a Broadband Solutions business broadband service. This service will be provided via either Adsl 2 + or Adsl 1 technology.
Availability
Broadband Solutions Business Broadband is not available everywhere. Availability depends on a number of factors, including whether the necessary equipment is available at the relevant exchange, the length of cable to the nearest telephone exchange and the quality of the existing telephone service. It also depends on which upstream provider is supplying the service at that exchange.
You can take this plan up as a standalone or as a bundled plan if you also have an eligible Broadband Solutions Business fixed line service on your account.
You need a fixed telephone service in order to get Broadband Solutions business broadband. You also need a gateway. You can use your own gateway provided it is compatible with our Business broadband Adsl 1 or Adsl 2 + service.
We recommend that your device meet’s the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) standards for Adsl.
You can check for this on the packaging of the device.
Alternatively, you can purchase a Cisco gateway from us for an upfront charge of $350.00.
Hardware can either be picked up from our Melbourne office or be delivered. Our standard delivery charge, which covers most products, is $35.00
Minimum Term
24 months.
The minimum term applicable to this service is 24 months from the date of activation. There is $0.00 setup fee on the 24-month term.
If you change to a different type of Internet access or technology for example Midband Ethernet or Fibre, you must pay us the monthly fee * by the remaining Monthly Charges for your plan. For example if you are on a 24 Month term and you cancel the plan with 20 Months remaining in the term then you must pay 20 * monthly charge.
