Subject: New! BigPond Broadband Cable Login available now

Dear BigPond Member

BigPond Broadband is happy to announce that new connection software for BigPond Broadband Cable is available now.

The new software is called BigPond Broadband Cable Login and has been developed by Telstra Research Laboratories Broadband E-Lab. It has been designed to replace Amicus Launchpad, the connection software previously supplied with your BigPond Broadband Cable service.

BigPond Broadband encourages you to upgrade to BigPond Broadband Cable Login now. To download the new software, please visit http://www.bigpond.com/broadband/support/downloads/cableclientupdate/

Please note: Downloading the new Cable Login from the BigPond Broadband website is unmetered and will not count against your monthly usage allowance.

BigPond Broadband Cable Login has new features including:

- Auto-reconnection if the connection to BigPond Broadband is lost
- Optional integration with the BigPond Toolbar (for more information on the BigPond Toolbar please visit http://www.bigpond.com/helpcentre/toolbar/) - A connection log-file and improved error messages to make it easier to solve connection problems - Improved useability and integration with Windows and Macintosh operating systems
- Advanced options to help customers that use firewalls.

We expect the transition to the new software to be quite straightforward. If you need our assistance, technical support for BigPond Broadband Cable Login will be available from BigPond Technical Support from October 1.

For online support and additional information about the launch of BigPond Broadband Cable Login, please visit http://bigpond.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/bigpond.cfg/php/enduser/ std_alp.php?p_prod_lvl1=3&p_search_text=BBCableLogin

BigPond Broadband will be withdrawing customer end-user licences for Amicus Launchpad on November 9. We request that you delete or destroy any copies of the Amicus Launchpad software after the 9th of November.

As a result of this change, Technical Support for Amicus Launchpad will no longer be provided from that time and support will only be available to customers using BigPond Broadband Cable Login.

If you need further information on the withdrawal of end-user licences for Amicus Launchpad, please review the Frequently Asked Questions here: http://bigpond.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/bigpond.cfg/php/enduser/> std_alp.php


Yours Faithfully,

The BigPond Team
