Midcoast Broadband

At Midcoast Internet we currently offer three broadband options.

  • ADSL ( Australia Wide )
  • WIRELESS ( Port Macquarie.)

ADSL offers fast download speeds with a slower( still fast ) upload. Three variants are available – 256k/64K; 512k/128k; 1500k/256k. The Business Class product provides direct access to the Telstra Internet backbone and uses fixed IP addresses, ideal for servers and VPN use.
The Economy Class is only available in NSW and has been designed for Small Business/Home Office and Home use. It has an Unlimited Download option for those who require it.
Client sites have to be within 3.5kms of an ADSL enabled exchange. It is also essential that ADSL connections be protected by a firewall.

Our Wireless wide area system utilises 900Mhz Radio Technology from Waverider Inc. It provides speeds of up to 1,000kbps in both directions. We have had a site operating in Port Macquarie since February 2002 and it has proved 99.9% reliable. It has a range of up to four kilometres depending on terrain between client site and our antennae in the the Port CBD and Industrial areas. In addition we have positioned a firewall between our radio site and the Internet. Whilst we still recommend that clients install a firewall, the extra firewall stops unwanted traffic using your radio bandwidth.

At Midcoast Internet we can advise you which solution is best for your requirements. We can provide, install and support all of your network and hardware needs. Indeed many businesses in our area already enjoy our total support for their computer network.
