NZ considers opening economy after 90 percent of COVID-19 cases recover

The New Zealand Cabinet will meet on Monday to decide whether restrictions can be eased allowing domestic travel to restart and most businesses to open. There have been four new recorded infections in the past five days, and 90 percent of approximately 1500 confirmed or probable cases, have recovered from the virus.

KPN gaat VDSL in glasvezelgebieden uitschakelen

KPN streeft ernaar om begin 2023 zo'n 2,4 miljoen Nederlandse adressen te kunnen voorzien van een glasvezelverbinding. De provider is voornemens in de periode daarna op alle adressen waar glasvezel beschikbaar is het kopernetwerk uit te schakelen. In sommige proefgebieden gebeurt dat overigens al voor 2023.

DELTA glasvezel nu ook beschikbaar in Caiway gebied

Caiway en DELTA, twee regionale internet, telefonie en tv-providers, werken sinds 2018 al intensief samen. Vanaf nu kunt u via Breedbandwinkel ook buiten Zeeland voor een DELTA glasvezel abonnement kiezen. Voorwaarde is wel dat het adres van het abonnement binnen het verzorgingsgebied van Caiway ligt.

KPN introduceert 1 Gigabit glasvezel

Het werd enige tijd geleden al aangekondigd. Vanaf vandaag, 2 maart, kunt u bij KPN glasvezelverbindingen met 1 Gigabit (1.000 Mb) internetsnelheid aanschaffen. Via Breedbandwinkel ontvangt u dit abonnement tijdelijk met maar liefst 6 maanden 50% korting. U betaalt gedurende die periode dan geen 65,00 euro, maar slechts 32,50 euro per maand.

Het College van Beroep voor het bedrijfsleven (CBb) heeft het besluit van de Autoriteit Consument en Markt (ACM), inzake het verplicht openstellen van het kabelnetwerk door VodafoneZiggo vernietigd. Dit betekent dat VodafoneZiggo geen andere aanbieders toegang tot haar kabelnetwerk hoeft te geven.

Providers bieden gratis tv-zenders tijdens coronacrisis

z

Nu ook vrije modemkeuze voor klanten van KPN

Klanten die een internetabonnement van KPN hebben waren altijd verplicht om gebruik te maken van het modem dat de provider in bruikleen meeleverde; de zogenoemde Experia Box. KPN heeft deze verplichte voorwaarde nu gewijzigd. Daardoor is het nu ook mogelijk om een eigen modem te kiezen en aan te sluiten.

Glasvezel en VDSL worden vaker aanbevolen dan kabel

Internet en tv providers met abonnementen via glasvezel of VDSL worden door consumenten vaker aangeprezen bij familie, vrienden en collega's dan kabelproviders. Dat blijkt uit een recent Net Promoter Score (NPS) onderzoek van Telecompaper. Glasvezel- en VDSL providers scoren bijna vier keer hoger dan kabelproviders.
