View all Cable broadband plans.Cable internet access
The term cable Internet access refers to the delivery of Internet service over this infrastructure. The proliferation of cable modems, along with DSL technology, has enabled broadband Internet access in many countries.
Bandwidth of business cable modem service typically range from 3 Megabits per second (Mbit/s) up to 30 Mbit/s or more. The upstream bandwidth on residential cable modem service usually ranges from 384 Kilobits per second (kbit/s) to 6 Mbit/s or more. There are few attempts to offer different service tiers beyond the traditional 'home' and 'business' designations.
There are two potential disadvantages to cable internet:
Like all residential broadband network technologies (e.g. DSL, FTTX, Satellite internet, WiMAX), a fixed amount of bandwidth is shared by a population of users (in the case of cable internet, users in a neighborhood share the available bandwidth provided by a single coaxial cable line). Therefore, connection speed can vary depending on how many people are using the service at the same time. This arrangement allows the network operator to take advantage of statistical multiplexing in order to provide an adequate level of service at an acceptable price. However, the operator has to monitor usage patterns, and scale the network appropriately, to ensure that customers receive adequate service even during peak usage times.
Many cable Internet providers are reluctant to offer cable modem access without tying it to a cable television subscription. They do this by charging higher rates, say $40/month for cable modem only access, than if one bundles it with a cable TV plan where it might be $30/month for cable modem service plus $20/month for cable TV service. This has ramifications similar to those of the lack of naked DSL. However, some cable internet access providers who resell access from cable companies, such as Earthlink, are generally not subject to these higher rates.
DSL

View all DSL broadband plans.DSL or xDSL, is a family of technologies that provide digital data transmission over the wires of a local telephone network. DSL originally stood for digital subscriber loop, although in recent years, many have adopted digital subscriber line as a more marketing-friendly term for the most popular version of consumer-ready DSL, ADSL.
Typically, the download speed of consumer DSL services ranges from 256 kilobits per second (kbit/s) to 24,000 kbit/s, depending on DSL technology, line conditions and service level implemented. Typically, upload speed is lower than download speed for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) and equal to download speed for Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL).
Essentially, DSL connections work by splitting up a single phone line into two 'bands'. The ISP data runs without interference from the phone data using only the high frequencies. The user typically installs a DSL filter on each of the phones which filters those out from the phone, so that the phone only uses or hears the lower frequencies. This creates two completely independent 'bands', allowing the high frequencies to be used by the DSL simultaneously with the phone line without interfering.
Wireless

View all Wireless broadband plans.Wireless Broadband is a fairly new technology that provides high-speed wireless internet and data network access over a wide area.
The Term Broadband
According to the 802.16-2004 standard, broadband means 'having instantaneous bandwidth greater than around 1 MHz and supporting data rates greater than about 1.5 Mbit/s'. This means that Wireless Broadband features speeds roughly equivalent to wired broadband access, such as that of ADSL or a cable modem.
At first, Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) were only found in rural areas not covered by cable or DSL. These early WISPs would receive a large connection, such as a T1 or DS3 connection, and then prodcast signal from a high elevation, such as at the top of a water tower. To receive this type of internet, consumers would mount a small dish to the roof of their home or office and point it to the transmitter. Line of sight was usually necessary for this type of technology, but technologies by Motorola have not adhered to this general rule.
Mobile Wireless Broadband
Now, Wireless Broadband technologies include new services from companies such as Verizon, Sprint, and Cingular, which allow a more mobile version of this broadband access. Consumers can purchase a PC-card, laptop-card, or USB equipment to connect their PC or laptop to the internet via cell-phone towers. This type of connection would be stable in any area that could also receive a strong cell-phone connection.
A wireless connection can be either licensed or unlicensed. In the US, licensed connections use a private spectrum the user has secured rights to from the FCC. In other countries, spectrum is licensed from the country's national radio communications authority (such as the ACMA in Australia). Licensing is usually expensive and often reserved for large companies who wish to guarantee private access to spectrum for use in point to point communication. Because of this, most wireless ISP's use unlicensed spectrum which is publicly shared and therefore more prone to interference.
TelstraClear
TelstraClear is New Zealand's second largest full-service telecommunications company.
TelstraClear is a voice and data company, providing innovative market leading products, services and customer focus to the business, government, wholesale and residential sectors with around 400,000 cusotmers in New Zealand. The company provides residential line rental services, internet services, cable TV/cable modem and also mobile telephone services to 70,000 subscribers on its network in three areas (Wellington, Christchurch and Kapiti).
In 2004 TelstraClear began offering residential line HomePlan services including broadband outside those areas where it has its own network, reselling a wholesale product from Telecom New Zealand.
History
Telstra New Zealand was set up in 1996 by Telstra as part of Telstra's international expansion. Competing with both Saturn Communications and Clear Communications Telstra New Zealand initially focused on providing services to top tier international organisations who were already Telstra clients in Australia in the same way that Telecom New Zealand Australia, an Australian subsidiary of Telecom New Zealand currently does for New Zealand based customers in Australia.
Telstra slowly expanded its operations in the business market bundling Telecom New Zealand services distributed as a reseller with its own network services. It installed a switch in Auckland to manage incoming and outgoing international traffic and maintained an interconnect agreement with Telecom New Zealand and is likely to have had others with companies such as Clear Communications.
In 2000 Saturn Communications was sold by its parent company, Austar United Communications, to a new joint venture with Telstra entity that became known as TelstraSaturn.
TelstraClear was then created by the merger of Telstra's operations in New Zealand TelstraSaturn Limited and Clear Communications in 2001. Austar United Communications held an initial investment of 42% in TelstraClear before selling it back to Telstra.
Services
Subscription Television (InHomeTV)
TelstraClear operates the Hybrid Fibre Cable pay television network developed by Saturn Communications in Wellington, Kapiti and Christchurch, prior to the sale to Telstra. The network infrastructure includes twisted pair cabling used for residential and business local telephone service.
Programming is now managed by Sky Communications following an agreement that saw TelstraClear move out of the role of sourcing developing a competitive pay television offering. The agreement allowed TelstraClear to distribute and bill for services provided by Sky on its own Direct to Home satellite service and TelstraSaturn's cable network.
InHomeTV is available on TelstraClear's Cable network in Wellington, Christchurch and Kapiti. The service is not available by itself, it must be bundled with TelstraClear's Telephony service.
In 2005, the network was upgraded to a fully digital transmission network.
Internet
TelstraClear owns two ISP's, Paradise.net and Clear Net. Both offer nationwide dialup and DSL service, and cable modem internet access within TelstraClear's own (built) network. Outside of this network, broadband connections are resold over Telecom's DSL lines.
Technical information
TelstraClear currently does not operate their own mobile network, they instead use Vodafone's network for cellphones which means their customers will actually be using the Vodafone New Zealand network.

Orcon
Who are Orcon?
Orcon has sustained a high level of growth over the past 4 years to become NZ's 4th biggest ISP, and the largest ISP that is 100% New Zealand owned and operated.
Previously best known as a provider of wholesale Internet and business connections, Orcon has become a household name in New Zealand.
Orcon has been North Shore based since its inception in 1995 and now operates from two buildings based on the North Shore, one a carrier-class Internet data centre while the other houses the Orcon Internet Head Office, as well as regional offices in New Zealand and Australia.
The History of Orcon
In 1994, while participating in the Fletcher Challenge Young Enterprise Programme at school, Seeby Woodhouse began to harbour ambitious dreams of building a large New Zealand technology company. As part of the vision he conceived, he drew a visual icon called 'The Orconagon', which was to eventually become the company logo. From this, the name Orcon originated.
While at university Seeby started a small business - Orcon Group Limited - that provided computer advice and support, as well as selling early model cell phones and accessories. Before long, demand caused the business to expand services to include PC upgrade and repair services. The business remained focused on the local market on Auckland's North Shore. By 1996 the business had expanded both its range of products and its sphere of operations. It began distributing computer accessories and supplies to small business owners and home users throughout the Auckland region and to various other parts of New Zealand as required.
In 1997 Orcon Group commenced as an ISP with three dial-in 33.6k modems. This was a very small step in what was to prove an exciting path for the business. Through the start-up phase, the market focus was on the no frills end of the market, with pricing at around half the price of the cheapest competition, Orcon was aimed at more skilled and technically minded customers.
Driven by a need to differentiate, the idea of wholesaling ISP services was born. Orcon started providing Internet capacity to other ISP's, which resulted in a larger volume of aggregated services purchased from the Telco's. At this point the hardware services component of the business was dropped, so that we could focus on the provision of Internet services.
As Orcon grew, logistics demanded a billing system that would handle all the requirements of Orcon's own customer database, as well as the customers of all the wholesale ISP customers. This lead to the commission of a software system for billing branded as 'iBill'. Together with Seeby, Mark Mackay, director of Digital Edge Ltd, began designing the iBill system on contract to Orcon Group. As the design evolved, two things became apparent; the synergies between the two companies and the market potential for the billing system. As a result Mark and Seeby combined their respective businesses to form the current company 'Orcon Internet Limited'.
In 2002, Orcon became a major ISP in the residential market, a new web portal was launched and marketing initiatives were put in place to continue to grow the customer base that positive word of mouth had established. Our customer loyalty, cautious financial planning, and a constant revision of business decisions and practices has seen Orcon grow from the small '3 dial-in modem company' in 1997 to New Zealand's 4th largest internet provider in 2003 (As ranked by PC World and NZ Telecommunications review).
Over the last four years we have seen our staff grow from four to eighty, revenue has grown fifteen-fold, and things don't look like slowing down anytime soon.
