The Australian government has announced it will spend $480 million ($US358 million) to provide more than a million premises in regional and rural Australia with faster NBN (National Broadband Network) internet speeds.

The upgrade project is expected to boost the speed of the NBN’s fixed wireless network and extend the data caps of the satellite internet service Sky Muster.
