More Torquay and Leopold households and businesses have access to fixed-line broadband after Telstra completed its roll-out of ?top hats? in the area.
The upgrades, which are installed on top of the existing streetside cabinets, increase the number of people who can connect to ADSL2+ internet. Until now, the existing cabinets had not been able to support ADSL2+ technology due to physical constraints.
Telstra Country Wide?s area general manager for Geelong and the Surf Coast, Duane Dalton, said the top hat was an innovative way of improving internet access for residents and businesses.
?In the past year we?ve installed six of these across Torquay and Leopold, representing a significant investment in the area.?
The upgrade also involved improving the connection between each streetside cabinet and the main network to help remove potential bottlenecks. Telstra says the top hats were part of a nationwide infrastructure investment across the country, and the company will continue to invest in innovative communications solutions to bring faster broadband speeds and improved technology where possible.
Mr Dalton said the upgrade would help Telstra customers connect devices such as TVs, computers, smartphones and tablets.
?It will enable our customers to access Foxtel on T-Box and have better access to a range of BigPond content, movies and channels.
?We can also arrange for one of our T-Plus service technicians to come into customers homes and professionally set all these devices up.?
For more information on getting access to the ADSL2+ service, phone 13 76 63 or visit the Telstra store at Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre.
