Peering Resources

The following links are to data which is counted towards the Double Data Bonus (DDB) provided with your Adam Internet service. This means, that any data downloaded directly through the following resources is not counted towards your external Adam Internet quota, but to a seperate "bin" of data, which is the same size as the quota for the service which you are on.

What Is Peering?

Peering, in general, is a connection between 2 or more hosts which allows the sharing of data. In reference to Adam Internet, "Peering" allows us to provide you with more data for the same price. This way, you can download data from sites who connect through PIPE Networks, only to have it count against your "local" download allowance. For more information on peering, [Click Here].

What Is PIPE Networks?

PIPE Networks is Australia's largest peering provider. It spans across 6 cities throughout Australia which allows ISPs and other online delivery companies to provide cheap and reliable data transfer. For more information about PIPE Networks, [Click Here]

What Is Local Data?

With your Adam Internet account, you are allowed on a monthly basis the equivalent value of your monthly data through our Peering Resources. Peering Resources include traffic between other Adam Internet customers, PIPE Networks, AdNAP, GamingSA and File Arena. For example: If you are on the AdamDirect Light account you can download 5000 MB of internet traffic as well as 5000 MB of data through our Peering Resources. This is refered to as the Double Data Bonus (DDB) and is offered at no additional cost.
