BROADBAND & ISDN HOME
a history and benefits

Frequently asked questions

Benefits of broadband
A much faster and reliable internet connection through your
telephone line.  It has many forms, ADSL, CABLE, ISDN, SATELLITE, & WIRELESS.  For 99% of Eyre Peninsula ISDN and Satellite are our only choices. ADSL only travels 3.5km from an exchange, 20km odd is common for ISDN. Satellite is prohibitively expensive for casual users, but the HiBIS scheme could change that.  
ISDN is affordably available to 99% of Eyre Peninsula. 

A conversion to ISDN (digital) affords at least 4 & up to 10 times the speed of a 56k analogue line, at no more cost for access with EYREONLINE  

ISDN  connections achieve 64k or 128k both ways, with no fallback, dials on demand. (takes around 5sec to connect), & is not continuously connected like ADSL or Satellite, (much more secure).  It allows both internet connection & phone  calls on the same line, simultaneously. Eyreonline is the ONLY local ISP to offer ISDN connection AT LOCAL VOICE CALL RATES

 With our 0198333295 dial facility, your ISDN call is, by ACA regulation, pegged to 30c/hr per channel, WITH NO FLAG-FALL COST.  That means with an ISDN call, you can have a call to our 0198333295 facility, at 64k, for approximately 34 minutes, before the call equals the standard local modem call flag-fall cost of 22c. 

Longer duration calls incur an ongoing cost at the 30c/hr rate, charged per second.  Your telstra, or any carriers account, itemises these calls for you to keep track of usage.

For longer term connections, eyreonline still offer 64k, 128k, and 256k DoV connections, where the call is charged at a local voice call flag-fall charge (22c), BUT NO FURTHER COST, as does your standard local voice calls do with ISDN home.

For any of the above options, there is a fair chance you may be eligible for inclusion in the HiBIS subsidy.
