Midcoast Broadband

At Midcoast Internet we currently offer three broadband options.

  • ADSL ( Australia Wide )
  • WIRELESS ( Port Macquarie )
  • Wireless G3 Broadband ( Australia Wide )

ADSL offers fast download speeds with a slower( still fast ) upload. Five variants are available – 256k/64K; 512k/128k; 1500k/256k; 8Mbps and ADSL+2.

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.

Our G3 Wireless Broadband offers the freedom and convenience to access the internet wherever there is an available Optus 3G/Dual Band mobile network. Simply plug the wireless modem into your laptop or PC and connect using the software supplied no phone line needed. This is an excellent choice for customers away from the main centres that do not have access to ADSL or wireless.

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.
