What is Christmas Island Internet Administration?

Christmas Island's Internet services were previously supplied by Christmas Island Internet Administration Limited (CiiA), but were cut on 1 March 2017, affecting about 1000 customers' 4G and fixed wireless services. Landline and 2G services were not affected. The company stated it was forced to close because it could not compete with the National Broadband Network (NBN). CiiA lodged a complaint with the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission to stop the NBN rollout, but failed.[3] The Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development stated the company had refused financial support.[4]

On 14 March 2017, Speedcast announced it had reached an agreement with the Australian Government to deliver wireless and 4G services until 30 June of the same year, to allow a transition period until more NBN services were installed.[5] Minister for Local Government and Territories Fiona Nash thanked SpeedCast for "stepping in to provide an internet service that will get Christmas Island back online.
