We currently don't have that product, but here are others to consider:
How we picked these
Typical download speeds may vary at your premises due to your connection type. The speeds shown on our comparison table are in accordance with product information from each provider. Your maximum and typical download speeds should be confirmed with your selected internet provider upon signup.
Every NBN plan is tied to a specific speed tier, but the speeds you actually experience in the evening (7-11 pm) can vary due to network congestion.
This is called the typical evening speed. For example, an NBN 100 plan has a maximum speed of 100 Mbps, but a provider might list its typical evening speed as 98Mbps.
The faster the typical evening speed, the more reliable it'll be during the busiest hours of the day.
3. Data allowance
Unlimited data NBN plans are now the norm, though a few providers still offer data-capped plans for just a few dollars less.
These are becoming increasingly rare and generally aren't great value for money.
4. Price and sign-up discounts
The general rule is that faster speeds cost more. However, after multiple NBN price hikes, the gap between slower and faster plans has narrowed, so it's worth comparing across the board.
Providers are also using these changes to make higher-speed plans more appealing.
Many plans also come with introductory discounts - most commonly for the first 6 months, so you can save even more when signing up.
Just make sure to compare both discounted prices and ongoing costs, especially if you don't plan on switching around once the offer expires.
5. Modem options
Plenty of providers let you BYO modem with your NBN plan, which can save on upfront costs when switching. A few things to keep in mind:
Make sure your current modem is compatible with the provider you plan to switch to.
If your modem is five years or older, upgrading is worth considering, as older hardware can cause slower speeds, buffering or lag and may not support faster speed tiers.
If you want a new modem, you can buy one from your provider. It's worth comparing these costs just like you would with NBN plans.
Some providers may also offer a modem for $0 if you stay connected for a set period or return it when you leave.
6. Contract length
Most NBN plans now come with no lock-in contract. If you choose one of the rarer plans with a contract, make sure the price is right or you're getting something extra in return.
7. Bundled extras
Most of us just want reliable internet, but some NBN plans also offer bundling discounts or add-ons.
There are 6 main speed tiers available in Australia right now, though you may notice some providers offer plans in between - NBN 15 from Dodo or NBN 75 from Aussie Broadband.
Here's a look at the main categories so you can use the information as a benchmark to compare all NBN plans.
NBN speed tier
Maximum download speed
Maximum upload speed
Great for
NBN 12
12Mbps
1Mbps
Light use: 1-2 people browsing, checking email, or streaming occasionally on a single device
NBN 25
25Mbps
10Mbps
Light use: 1-2 people browsing, emailing, streaming in HD, or making video calls on a couple of devices
NBN 50
50Mbps
20Mbps
Moderate use: Sweet spot for the average household with 2-3 people streaming in HD, gaming, making video calls, or working from home
NBN 100
100Mbps
40Mbps
Moderate to heavy use: Ideal for households with 3-5 people or heavy internet users streaming in 4K on up to 5 devices, gaming online, making multiple video calls, or working from home simultaneously on up to 7 devices
NBN 250
250Mbps
100Mbps
Very heavy use: Better suited to larger households with multiple users streaming 4K on up to 7 devices, gaming online, video conferencing, and working from home
NBN 1000
1000Mbps
400Mbps
Ultra-heavy use: Serious speeds for ultra-heavy internet users or small businesses. Suited for multiple users streaming 4K across 10+ devices, gaming online, video conferencing, and working from home simultaneously
For example, NBN 100 will be boosted to NBN 500 at no extra cost for those on an FTTP or an HFC connection.
It will also be introducing a new NBN 2000 plan. We have a separate guide on all the changes since there's a lot to unpack and explain.
"I'd just moved into a new place and needed to check what internet options were available in my area. Even though we're only a household of three, I work from home so I wanted something fast and reliable for the day, plus strong enough to stream on multiple devices at night. I ended up going with Superloop's nbn250 Superfast plan which was the same price as my old nbn100 plan, and I even scored a discount for the first 3 months."

How will my NBN connection affect the speeds I can get?
The NBN connection type at your address will determine what plans and speeds you can access.
Most Australians are on fixed-line connections such as Fibre to the Premises (FTTP), Fibre to the Node (FTTN), Hybrid Fibre Coaxial (HFC), Fibre to the Curb (FTTC) or Fibre to the Building (FTTB).
FTTP is generally considered the fastest and most reliable option, supporting all NBN speed tiers, followed by HFC.
By contrast, copper-based technologies like FTTN and FTTC often struggle to deliver speeds above NBN 100.
If you're on FTTN or FTTC, you may be eligible for a free fibre upgrade to FTTP by signing up for an NBN 100 plan or faster. Pop your address into the NBN website to check eligibility.
There can be a big difference between the cheapest and most expensive NBN plans offering similar speeds.
In the following table, you can see the cheapest and most expensive NBN plans in our database (as of 19 August 2025) across various speed tiers.
We've also given an average monthly price as another benchmark to help you compare plans, as the cheapest may not always offer the best value, features or reliability.
TPG has claimed Finder's Provider of the Year Award for broadband with a cracking score of 9.9. It's mostly to do with competitive pricing across the majority of its NBN and home wireless internet plans that come with no lock-in contracts, speed reliability and multiple customer support options. TPG also scored highly for customer experience, value, reliability, and trustworthiness.
2025 Finder Award for Best Everyday Use NBN Provider - Dodo
Dodo knocked it out of the park with its competitive pricing for everday speeds (NBN 50). You can BYO or buy one with multiple payment options to suit your needs. There's also the option to bundle internet and energy with Dodo to save up to $10 a month.
2025 Finder Award for Best Fast Speeds NBN Provider - Dodo
Dodo takes home another win for delivering fast speeds at a great price point. Its recent 12-month discounts have given it the edge this year. It's also been in the top five in the last few ACCC reports, which measure speed reliability on a quarterly basis.
2025 Finder Award for Best Budget NBN Provider - SpinTel
SpinTel earns its first win for Best Budget NBN Provider by delivering the maximum typical evening speeds available on an NBN 25 plan, coupled with one of the lowest prices in this category.
2025 Finder Award for Best Superfast Speeds NBN Provider - TPG
In addition to scoring well for speed reliability in the ACCC's recent broadband performance report, TPG's NBN 250 plan offers solid value at just under $100 a month. New customers can often take advantage of six-month sign-up discounts, bringing the price down to under $85 a month for the first half of the year.
2025 Finder Award for Most Loved NBN Provider - Aussie Broadband
Aussie Broadband knocked it out of the park for the third year in a row as the most loved broadband provider by Australians. It got the highest overall score of 4.1 out of 5.
Who is the fastest and most reliable NBN provider?
The ACCC's Broadband Performance report, released every quarter, gives you a glimpse into how reliable the top NBN providers are in Australia.
Reliability is based on how frequently providers achieve the typical evening speeds they advertise.
Ideally, you want your NBN provider to be as close to hitting 100% of its advertised typical evening speed as possible, because this means you're actually getting the correct speeds you've signed up for.
Have a look at the top 5 providers that have topped the chart in the most recent report.
Rank
Provider
Percentage of max download speeds achieved
1
Telstra
104.60%
2
Exetel
103.70%
3
Optus
103%
4
Superloop
102.80%
5
TPG

The National Broadband Network (NBN) is Australia's government-owned broadband infrastructure, designed to provide high-speed internet access across the country.
Its rollout in Australia was officially declared complete in December 2021 as it replaced older technologies such as ADSL and cable internet.
However, the network is undergoing significant upgrades to further enhance internet speeds and reliability.
Yes. Switching NBN providers is usually straightforward since the NBN connection itself stays the same.
All you need to do is compare NBN plans, sign up with your new provider, and they'll handle most of the switch for you.
Check if your current plan has any exit fees or requires a 30-day notice, and confirm that your modem is compatible with the new provider.
Once you've established the availability of NBN at your address and your connection type, the next step is to compare NBN plans and find one best suited to your needs.
In some instances, a technician may need to come out for a first time connection. This will depend on your NBN technology type.
Normally set up and installation is free of charge unless you're in a new development, which will require you to pay a one-off $300 fee.
In some other instances you could be charged if a technician needs to come to sort out your cable or wiring, or if you need extra equipment.
Ask your provider of choice for more information regarding additional fees before signing up.
If the NBN isn't available or giving you trouble, you have a few alternatives including:
Home wireless broadband: This allows you to connect to the internet using either the 4G or 5G mobile network. There's no installation required but you will need to purchase your provider's modem to access their home wireless service. Keep in mind that availability of a 5G home internet plan at your property will depend on the provider.
Mobile broadband: This is another wireless internet solution that uses the 4G or 5G mobile network. Options for mobile broadband include data-only SIMs, USB modems and pocket Wi-Fi. Unlike home wireless broadband, it's a portable internet connection so you can take it with you wherever you go.
We're internet addicts. We review every offer, every GB, every plan, every month. Yep, our data usage is bonkers, but it's worth it.
Obsessed with offers. Whether you're looking for basic or ultra fast NBN, we'll bring you hundreds of plan options. Sure, you could go website to website and find them yourself. Or, you could let us nerd out for you - so you can see them live, 24/7.
No mark ups. You get the same rates as going direct, heck sometimes you even score better as we put in the yards to bring you exclusive offers.

Hi Peter,
You can keep your bigpond address after closing your Telstra account, but you have to let them know when you do so. It’s free to keep for the first 12 months after you cease to be a Telstra customer. After that, it’s $79 a year.
