they charge the owner of the establishment a fee based on traffic requirements (thus hardware requirements).
Generally they are a lot smaller scale than what GCN/netbay are hoping to achieve, places that would only ever see 20-50 people online at any one time and the radius of wifi done through a home-wireless router type setup.
Dont get me wrong, they are both aiming at the same audiences, just internode is low capital, low fees, many locations where as GCN/netbay are trying to do a high capital, high fees, many locations (if the first works)
Netbay (hopefully) will set up a massive wireless system which will extend at high speeds quite a good range (similar to what universities has), generally using a T1 or T3 connection rather than ADSL (internode) which means much higher traffic without cutting speed.
