Broadband1
Broadband1 simply means high-speed internet. Broadband ADSL is the most popular type of high-speed connection for the following reasons:
- Permanent "always on" internet connection
- Seamless surfing
- High speeds = super fast downloads
- Be online and on the phone at the same time
- Westnet offers the most comprehensive range of plans with speeds of 256kbps, 512kbps, 512kbps/512kbps, 1.5Mbps and 1.5Mbps-8Mbps.
Broadband2+
Broadband2+ is the next generation, super fast Broadband service with speeds between 1.5Mbps and 20Mbps (dependant on a number of factors including distance from your exchange, quality of your phone line and hardware). It does everything Broadband1 does - but faster!
Westnet provides you with
- A free back up Dialup connection – in the unlikely occurrence of an outage you’ll still be able to get online. However, during non-outage periods, dialup access for Broadband ADSL customers is charged at $1.10 per hour.
- Free technical support, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- Multiple award-winning customer service.
Save time and money
- No local call costs.
- Our helpful Technical Support Team will talk you through the set up– so there’s no need to pay for an installer.
- No need for an additional phone line.
- With Broadband you can be online and on the phone at the same time. It also enables you to send and receive faxes whilst surfing the net.
