AGL internet review
AGL is one of Australia's most respected gas and electricity providers, but it also provides NBN plans. All of AGL's NBN plans come with unlimited data, no lock-in contract and no set-up fees.
If you're with AGL for electricity anyway and can take advantage of the available bundling discounts, it's not a bad choice for an NBN provider.
Its typical evening speeds are good on its NBN 25, NBN 50, NBN 100 and NBN 250 plans, attaining the maximum speed available on their respective tiers. This suggests that these plans should offer fast internet speeds.
If you're not already an AGL customer and you're looking to compare NBN plans, then you're likely to find a better deal elsewhere. Its plan prices for the most common speed tiers in Australia - NBN 25, 50 and 100 - are above the average found in Finder's database without any of AGL's bundling discounts applied.
Things to watch out for:
To get the optional home phone line, you'll need to buy AGL's modem, you can't BYO. Luckily its modem is in line with average price of a them on Finder's database.
If you opt for a payment plan when buying a modem from AGL and cancel before your instalment period is up, you'll need to pay out the remaining cost in full on your next bill.
A bit of background on AGL
Known primarily as an energy provider, AGL started life as the Australian Gas Light company.
It formed in 1837 in Sydney, then in 1841 it lit the first street gas lamp in the city. It later diversified into electricity.
After a false start following the acquisition of telco Dingo Blue in 2000 which it then closed in 2003, AGL moved into the data and telecommunications space when it purchased regional provider Southern Phone in 2019.
You can get in touch with AGL regarding its NBN in the following ways:
Send a message in its app or via My Account
Live chat online via its website
Call it
AGL also has options for getting in touch for hearing and impaired customers, as well as an interpreter service so you can speak to someone in your language.
Bonus features
AGL offers a handful of bonus features:
Bundling discount
You can get get a discount on your NBN plan if you bundle it with an AGL energy plan and BYO modem.
Home phone plan
For $10 a month you can get a home phone connection with unlimited calls to Australian mobiles and standard landlines.
AGL rewards

How does AGL internet compare?
Here's how AGL compares to some of the most popular NBN providers in Australia and their NBN 50 plans. Keep in mind that we've used standard ongoing prices for each provider (no promotional discounts applied).
It's easy to sign up to AGL if you think it's right for you. Simply enter your address once you're on its website to make sure you can access the plan you've chosen. Together with regular fixed-line NBN, AGL also offers fixed wireless NBN plans if that's the connection type available at your property.
What if I'm moving house? AGL encourages people to use its services while moving, boasting an efficient sign up and moving process. Keep in mind that it could take up to 5 business days to get connected.
Be sure to give your current provider a heads up in case there's a notice period to account for. You don't want to be stuck paying for 2 internet plans.

Important information about this website
Finder is a comparison service. We do not compare every product or every provider in the market.
We make money through commercial arrangements with some of the providers on this site. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement.
Our editorial content, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements.
The default order of products in our tables can be influenced by commercial arrangements. You can re-sort or filter using the controls above each table.
Some content on this site may be generated or supported by AI tools. You should verify details directly with the provider.
Finder is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stand by our editorial principles.
Our comparison service does not include every product or every provider in the market. Some product issuers offer their products under multiple brands or through associated companies. Where we can, we identify the underlying issuer so you can compare like with like, but you should always check with the provider directly to confirm which brand you are dealing with.
Finder is a comparison website and an intermediary. We are not a product issuer and we do not provide personal financial or credit advice. When you click a link to a product, or apply for a product through our site, you deal directly with the product issuer. We may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the issuer if you click through, apply or take out a product. We describe these arrangements in more detail under 'How we make money' below.
Product features, fees, terms and eligibility criteria are set by the product issuer and may change. We rely on information supplied by issuers when we present product details on our site. Before you apply for or take out any product, you should confirm the details directly with the issuer.
We earn revenue from Finder in four principal ways:
Referral fees and commissions. When you click a product link, complete an enquiry form or apply for a product through our site, we may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the product issuer. We may also receive payment based on the volume of leads or conversions we send to an issuer.
Sponsored placements. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement between Finder and the issuer. These labels always indicate a paid placement. We do not use them for editorial choices.
Display advertising. Banner advertising, newsletter advertising and similar display ads on our site are paid by advertisers.
Content sponsorship. Some articles, videos and social media posts are sponsored by an issuer and are clearly labelled as such.
Our editorial opinions, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements. A 'Top Pick' is an editorial choice made by our writers and editors based on the criteria described on each comparison page. A 'Top Pick' is not a personal recommendation and does not mean the product is appropriate for your circumstances.
If you would like to know whether we have a commercial arrangement with a specific product issuer, please contact us.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the default order can be influenced by commercial arrangements we have with product issuers. In some categories, sponsored or featured products appear in the top positions of the table by default, and are always labelled as such.
Other factors that influence default order include price, fees and features, and (where relevant) our editorial view of the product.
You can re-sort every comparison table using the controls above the table. You can filter by product features that matter to you. The order you see after re-sorting or filtering is not influenced by commercial arrangements.

We update our data regularly, but information can change between updates. Confirm details with the provider you're interested in before making a decision.
Our goal is to create the best possible product, and your thoughts, ideas and suggestions play a major role in helping us identify opportunities to improve.
