Editorial

In order to meet the needs our growing membership, a number of new staff have joined the ranks, including Beata, Chris, Lance, Philip and Ross. Our Adelaide office opened in June, with John, Leigh and Rachael eagerly waiting by the phones.

iiNet's explosive growth in 1996 mirrors that of 1995 - and we have no reason to expect any different in the next twelve months. We're planning carefully to meet this challenge, as well as extending existing services to give you more for your money. We hope you'll be with us for the long ride.

New Nodes

        Mandurah        (09) 586 1866
        Adelaide        (08) 8212 3222
        Busselton       (097) 27 2929
        Gawler          (085) 233 509 

Members in Rockingham and Byford can also call our Mandurah node for the cost of a local call.

Adelaide has opened as the centre for our South Australian expansion, so it has its own support services and personnel on the ground. In addition we have a rotary in Gawler which services the Barossa Valley area.

As with all our nodes, iiNet members who are visiting another location, such as Adelaide, can dial into the local number instead of having to dial long distance.

The current recommended dialup numbers are:

Perth      (09) 322 4449   Perth CBD. 15 minute logins.
Perth	   (09) 461 4000   Perth CBD. 64 x 28.8K lines
Perth      (09) 461 4100   Perth CBD. 64 x Netcomm 28.8K lines.
Adelaide   (08) 8212 3222  With local support and service.
Padbury    (09) 307 5801   Wanneroo, Yanchep and Bullsbrook.
Mandurah   (09) 586 1866   Mandurah, Byford, Pinjarra, 
Bunbury    (097) 91 5115   Bunbury, Australind and Capel.
Busselton  (097) 27 2929   Busselton Town Centre

Perth      (09) 322 5432   Perth CBD. 128 x 28.8K lines.
Perth      (09) 322 7123   Perth CBD. 64 x Netcomm 28.8K lines.

Currently, if you are dialing the CBD, the recommended dialing pattern you should be using (assuming you do not have any conflicts with any particular rotary) is 461-4000 and then 322-5432. The 461-4000 number will carry on to the other 461 numbers if the lines are congested.

Dialup Pricing

As of August 1, 1996, we are no longer offering the standard account to our new members. This change does not negatively affect existing clients on the standard account. Quite the contrary! We have actually removed the volume limit on the standard account as a reward for your loyalty.

Those people on the standard account will now receive:

• No time charges
• No volume charges
• 5 megabytes of disk space on our server. (Typically for web pages and files.)
• A minimum online time of 80 minutes.
• Free email and telephone support.
• No daily or monthly online time limits.

However, we will no longer be offering this account as an option to new clients. So as not to disadvantage the people on the premium account or new clients, we have upgraded their accounts as well. Premium clients receive:

• No time charges
• No volume charges
• 10 megabytes of disk space on our server. (Typically for web pages and files.)
• A minimum online time of 2 hours.
• Free email and telephone support.
• No daily or monthly online time limits.

The cheaper plan has probably contributed to making iiNet the largest Internet Access Provider in WA. Nonetheless, we are committed to high quality more than size, and we believe that offering new clients the premium service will result in an increased capacity for growth and the ability to meet your requirements in years to come.
