How Australia created the technology election

Tags: ausvotes, colin jacobs, delimiter, election, electronic frontiers australia, family first, filter, julia gillard, national broadband network, syndicate, tony abbott

This post is by Colin Jacobs, the chair of Electronic Frontiers Australia. It first appeared on the EFA’s site and is re-published here with his permission.

opinion This election, online issues finally got the attention they deserve. And the situation is here to stay.

I’m not talking about which party had the most Facebook followers or made the most gaffes on Twitter (Julia Gillard and Family First, respectively). Serious issues around internet governance and our internet future came into play, and by all accounts will continue to be significant as the situation plays out this week.

The first issue that affected the election was Labor’s mandatory internet censorship policy, 3 years old and counting. Throughout that time, I believe the accepted wisdom amongst the scheme’s proponents — the most notable being of course Senator Conroy — was that it would be unpopular with a handful of geeks but would appeal to the wider audience of mums and dads in the electorate.

If this was indeed the strategy, I think it backfired. Although it’s based on mainly anecdotal evidence, I believe many internet users had their political consciousness awoken by this attempt to slap censorship on the country’s net connections. When this issue was important to people, it didn’t just put them slightly off-side, but made them hopping mad, if not lifelong skeptics of the ALP. Over time I have spoken to MPs and parliamentary staffers of all stripes, and I’m pleased to report that many people did indeed contact their elected representatives and let the opinions be known. For some MPs, this amounted to a veritable flood, and the issue was absolutely on their radar.

Unfortunately, we’ll never be able to quantify what this did to Labor’s vote. The fact is that Labor suffered a big swing against them, and it’s worth noting that most of this swing went to the Greens, the most vocal opponents of the filter in Parliament. At the ballot box, we can’t disentangle the filter from other issues such as climate change and refugees that the Greens campaigned on, but I believe the filter played a big role.

The Coalition, of course, decided to oppose the filter themselves, and this didn’t happen until the election campaign was already underway. Once again, from reading the feedback online, there’s some evidence that this gave their campaign a boost amongst Australia’s netizens. The fact that they decided to make an announcement then, rather than wait for the legislation as they had previously indicated, shows that they thought this was the case as well.

So while I wouldn’t want to oversell it, internet users are hardly a minority in Australia, and issues close to their hearts are at getting more attention than ever before.

The other major technological issue of the campaign was of course the National Broadband Network. This was without a doubt the one area where the policies of the two major parties differed the most. At the risk of over-editorialising, it was also one of the few policies with long-term vision and a nation-building agenda. Labor’s policy calls for a huge investment in our broadband infrastructure, and — setting the economic arguments aside — is a clear win for internet users. The Coalition’s policy is much more modest and boils down to wringing the last drops out of the copper network while leaving the market to take care of the rest.

As it happened, both policies got some real scrutiny, culminating in Tony Abbott’s embarrassing 7.30 Report appearance where he begged off discussing the details of broadband by claiming (correctly) that he was no “tech-head”. This is a major development; our leaders are now expected to know the difference between peak and actual speeds, symmetric and asymmetric connections, ADSL2+, DOCSIS 3 and fibre to the home. Telecommunications capability has assumed a place next to, even ahead of, rail and roads as critical infrastructure. This is as it should be.

The NBN is still making itself felt. The regional independents, now ubiquitously dubbed “kingmakers” by the media, have all flagged this as an issue. Nothing reduces the “tyranny of distance” like a fast net connection would, so it’s a crucial issue for regional voters. If the three amigos decide to put Gillard back in the Lodge, our broadband future may have something to do with it.

Incidentally, an example of just how badly the filter has damaged Labor’s credibility with regard to online issues is some of the negative comments we received for praising this broadband policy in contrast to that of the Liberal party. Although this failure to “maintain the rage” against Conroy is temporary and I hope forgivable, the ALP have a long way to go if they ever want to regain the trust of Australian internet users.

I haven’t yet touched on the uses of the net itself, including social media, in the campaign. The major parties focussed as normal on scary TV ads to get their message out, and online spending by the major parties (as best we can ascertain) came in at well under 10 percent. The Greens and minor parties relied much more heavily on drumming up support online, both as a deliberate strategy and due to financial necessity. It doesn’t seem to have done them any harm at all. It’s interesting to ponder what will the next election will look like; will the 30-second TV spot still reign supreme?

With the way things are going, we might not have to wait three years to find out.

FixTel has  a wide range of Australian broadband plans to choose from which can be a little confusing so we’re here to make your broadband choice as easy as possible. There is three main types of broadband which are fixed broadband plans, mobile broadband plans and wireless broadband plans. Fixed broadband deals describe a fixed line, usually an adsl broadband line which provides your connection, adsl broadband plans are the most common type of broadband deals at the moment but that’s changing. Wireless broadband plans are essentially adsl broadband deals which have a wireless router which means once your broadband connection reaches  the router it becomes wireless so you can use it anywhere in the house on multiple computers or laptops. Wireless broadband can be sometimes wrongly confused with mobile broadband plans. Mobile broadband deals involve no fixed line whatsoever but rely on the 3g broadband coverage of the mobile networks. Mobile broadband plans are accessed via a usb stick, sometimes called a mobile internet stick which plugs into your laptop allowing you to get online instantly, so long as you are in an area of coverage. We can help you choose the right package

Wireless Broadband

Wireless broadband plans have been falling in price and it’s now possible to find cheap deals from a range of different wireless broadband providers. Prepaid wireless broadband is becoming increasingly popular and is a good option if you are on a budget and want to manage your costs closely. As with any internet provider before opting for a cheap wireless broadband plan it’s worth checking the coverage as this may vary from one provider to another meaning that the cheapest option may be a false economy.

Broadband Plans

Broadband plans are available from a wide range of Australian broadband providers and by using our comparison tables you can see how the various broadband plans compare and will be able to find the most suitable internet provider for your needs. Take into account download speed, cost and download limited. If you are a heavy internet user you may want to choose an unlimited broadband plan. If you plan to use your internet connection for online gaming then choose an option with fast upload speeds, download speeds and unlimited downloads. Alternatively if you only plan to browse the web and send emails the cheapest broadband plans should be sufficient for your needs.

Wireless broadband plans

Wireless broadband plans have a similarly large choice in Australia, there are also prepaid wireless broadband plans to consider for those who want to only pay for what they use and keep a tight control on their budgets. These options are also great if you intent on moving home and you are not locked into a lengthy contract as you are with other deals. It’s worth taking this into consideration to ensure you get the best wireless broadband plan for your money.

Mobile broadband plans

Mobile broadband plans have seen a huge surge in growth since 2008 and are now becoming more and more popular. Prepaid mobile broadband plans and contract option both allow you to use your connection anywhere you have mobile reception and on any computer or laptop. To choose the best mobile broadband plan for your needs consider the same things you would take into account for a fixed internet deal like speed, download limits, contract length, costs and the reputation of the mobile broadband provider in question.

Compare broadband plans

Compare broadband plans is what we do so you’ve come to the right place. We compare broadband providers and a wide range of plans to ensure you get a great deal. We compare wireless broadband plans too. As a broadband comparison site we aim to provide all of the information in an easy to use format so you can quickly and simply find the most suitable deal for your requirements at the cheapest price.

Compare mobile broadband

We also compare mobile broadband, our mobile broadband comparison service is quick and easy to use so you can simply find the right offer for your needs. We aim to give you the information you need so that you can compare deals on a like for like basis and make an informed choice.

Best broadband deals

The best broadband deals for one person will not always be the best broadband plan for another. For example an online gamer is more likely to need a high end fast broadband service with high speeds and unlimited downloads, an occasional user would be fine with a cheap broadband option and business users or students who want to get online in different places may find mobile broadband the best option for them. Equally the best mobile broadband options will differ from one person to another so make sure you take into account who you will use your connection before committing to a contract.

Cheap broadband

Cheap broadband plans can be great for light or occasional users but make sure you are not sacrificing the features you need by opting for the cheapest broadband plan available as this can be a false economy. Make sure the internet provider you choose has good coverage in you area and has sufficient speeds and download limits for your type of internet use. It’s also worth considering customer service which varies between Australian internet providers from the good to the bad when looking for a cheap broadband plan.

Broadband speed test

Unsure of your broadband speed? Our internet speed test and run a broadband speed check to see how fast your connection is. You can visit our free broadband speed test to see how your provider stacks up against the competition.  Our broadband speed checker  measure upload and download speed for your internet connection. If you are unhappy with you current provider you can run might want to run broadband speed test and consider switching to an alternative internet provider if you are unhappy with your internet speed. You can visit our internet speed test here.

These days, demand requires a higher standard of phone system. The problem is that a wired phone system can get to be way too complicated. Have you ever tried to identify which phone is running from which line or where the signal is coming from in the first place? That takes a lot of work, and no doubt the technicians of old remember crawling through ducts trying figure out where a line was broken.

Voice over IP is a great new way of communicating, and as such many businesses and individuals have taken to using it. The biggest difference is that VoIP works through an internet connection or even a cable connection. Essentially it rids you of the need to pay for both a phone line and your phone package.

FIXTEL offers one of the widest ranges of IP based phones for businesses, and they have packages for everyone. From the small business to the worldwide enterprise, there is a package and a plan that will fit your needs. No matter which package you need though, there are a number of features that you will be able to get.

For instance, you will always have the ability to hold a business meeting whether you are on or off the premises. Mobility is in high demand, and as such it is the number one service that most suppliers, including Nortel are going to provide.

FIXTEL even offers video conferencing, which is something that was not quite as efficient when using POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service). Luckily when you are using VoIP, there are more possibilities than ever before. One of the best parts is the ability to reach your people whenever you need to.

The ability to route your office phone to your mobile phone will ensure that you are never out of touch with the home office. Once again, it\’s all about mobility. You can plainly see that there are many new possibilities with phones these days. At one time they were only used for calls in and out of the office, but these days they are relied on far more. They have become complex, and quite indispensable. The only thing that can stop you is the price.

The expense is probably worth it to most businesses, even if it could be in the fifty thousand pound range. You will find that nearly any investment you make for this system will be almost entirely returned before you know it. FIXTEL website will have more information regarding their various packages, so make sure you check it out today. Get rid of that old telephone system you\’ve been relying on and enjoy a greater level of communication.

Satellite dishes are a type of parabolic and microwave antenna. The one pictured above is a high-gain reflector antenna. This means it picks up or sends out electromagnetic signals from a satellite. It can be used for data, radio or television. The size and design of a satellite dish vary depending on the use of it. The most common satellite dish used by individuals is the one for television programming. DirecTV and Dish Network are the major satellite broadcasting companies

How a Satellite Dish is Put Together

The parabolic shape of a dish reflects the satellite signal from the focal point to the LNB. An LNB is a low-noise block converter. It converts the high frequencies (electromagnetic waves) received from the satellite to lower ones (electrical signals) that can be sent through coaxial cable. This signal is sent from the satellite dish to a special receiver and then to a television set. This allows the picture and sound quality to be reproduced at a higher level than if it was not converted. The satellite dish consists of a metal reflector (antenna) and an LNB held in front of it by a support arm. These are placed on a pole (mast) and mount. The satellite dish can be set to pick up specific satellite signals. Changing the elevation of it does this. This is an adjustment of precise degrees needed for DirecTV or Dish Network satellites.

Requirements for a Satellite Dish to Work

There has to be a direct line of signal from the dish to the satellite in the sky to work. The DirecTV and Dish Network satellites are located in the southern hemisphere. This means there can be no obstructions of any kind between the satellite and dish. The dish must be located in an area clear of trees, bushes, buildings or any other objects. It has to be mounted securely and completely level to function correctly. It must be set to the precise elevation degree needed. A coaxial cable is connected to the LNB, grounded through a grounding block and then run into the house. This cable is attached to a satellite reciever and then to a television. You must have an account with a satellite provider to be able to pick up their satellite programming. The signal comes from the satellite in the sky to the dish and then is converted through the LNB. The cable carries it into the reciever, which will then broadcast it on the television
