FAQ

What is Broaband ADSL?

ADSL is simply a way of using frequencies that don't get used for telephone calls to push really fast internet access down the line from our equipment to your computer.  Because ADSL doesn't use the same part of the phone line as your telephone does, you can be online and talk on the phone, send faxes - all at the same time! 

Smelly Black Dog have a range of plans created especially for the home user and a full set of plans for the small business and corporate users.

What is an ADSL LINE FILTER
A line filter effectively filters the frequencies on the line and prevents the the voice frequencies from interfering with the frequencies used by data and vice versa.

Each and every device must have a filter installed between it and the phone line, however the recommended maximum number of such filters is three. Any more than that and they can do more hindering than helping by degrading the quality of your line. If you require more than three line filters, the alternative is not install any filters at all but instead to have an ADSL central splitter installed. An ADSL central splitter must be installed by a qualified technician (your local electrician should be able to help you) and generally sits at the point where your phone line enters your house or office before it splits off to the various phone plugs in different rooms.


What is Shaping

The residential series of plans are "shaped" to 64k once you reach the download limit noted in the table - this way you don't need to worry about fees in excess of your monthly charge, for a simpler life.

Notes:

1. This is the plan's theoretical maximum download (the number before the '/') and upload (the number after the '/') speed, measured in kilobits per second. While you should receive this speed most (if not all) of the time, SBDC makes no assertions that you will achieve this speed at all times.
   
2. This is the plan's monthly quota measured in Megabytes. For charging purposes, SBDC considers 1 Megabyte to be made from 1000 Kilobytes.
   
3. Stated is the plan's monthly price, and is only an indication of the charge for ongoing provision of the ADSL service. It does not include installation/termination/modification and/or hardware fees, any fees charged through late payment of account, any add-on options provided nor excess usage fees should the plan include them.
4. Min term is 12 months. Early termination within month 1 to 6 is $199 from month 7 to 12 is $99
   
5. All plans have a data limit at which your connection will be shaped, that is, your download speed lowered to 64Kbps for the remainder of your billing month. Once your quota rolls over you will be unshaped back to full speed.
   
6. For your broadband ADSL service with us to function, it is a business requirement of our carrier that you maintain a telephone service in good accounting and working order. If your telephone service is disconnected for any reason, we may get charged with a fee to reconnect you, and we'll pass that charge along to you. Two of the most well-known ways of making this happen are:
   (a) Changing the "leasee" (person named on the bill) of your telephone service, and
   (b) Not paying your phone bill.
   
7. As noted in the section for startup costs, SBDC broadband services carry a commitment term of 6 months and services are delivered on a month-by-month contract.  Each time you're billed for a month, you are contracted to serve (and pay) for that month, which isn't refundable. That's all there is to it. We don't have any clever minimum cost calculators, but the general formula of "hardware costs + installation fee + (monthly fee x commitment period)" is a good indication.
   
8. Just quickly, a word of advice from SBDC for accessing certain interactive services such as online games and streaming media. Choose a 512/128 (preferable a 1500/256 or faster) package, as 256/64 is just a little too sluggish for these sorts of things to run as they were intended. It wouldn't be pretty. For voip we recomend ADSL2+ or a 1500 to accomodate voice qaulity.
