Deep South takes matters into own hands
The six regional broadband pilots and the government's budget announcement are vitally important initiatives, but in some parts of rural
New Zealand, the private sector is providing services. Invercargill-based ISP SouthNet established Wi-Fi (802.11b) services in Invercargill last year, allowing businesses with line-of-sight connections to its wireless
broadcast point atop a city hotel to use a service it says is competitive with Telecom's
broadband.
