Clear Networks is a provider that focuses on delivering connections to customers who live in challenging rural and regional parts of Australia. It has a full range of different connection technologies available, suiting most customers.
So long as you have an FTTP connection, Clear Networks has NBN plans representing every speed tier available from the NBN.
Clear Networks plans share the following features:
$39.95 and up monthly
NBN, fixed wireless, satellite, Sky Muster Plus
Basic I, Basic II, Standard, Fast
Phone plans
Phone, live chat
Clear Networks works to provide IP networking to some of the more challenging regions of Australia. They have satellite, fixed wireless, fixed-line NBN, and Sky Muster Plus plans on offer.
Clear Network's fixed-line connections have much lower than average typical speeds, especially on the higher speed tiers (e.g. its NBN100 plan has a typical speed of just 70.00Mbps compared to the ACCC average of 84.5Mbps). On top of that, you can't get unlimited data on the faster connections, meaning that your high speed may not be worth much since you'll run out of data.
The flipside benefit of this is that if you're looking for the most basic connection available, you could get 60GB of data on an NBN12 connection for $39.95 per month - which is one of the cheapest NBN plans in our database. This is of questionable value, however, and having low data limits on its faster plans really harm them.
Beyond this, signing onto a contract with Clear Networks is a huge commitment. If you want to cancel out of any of their long-term contracts, you'll have to pay a cancellation fee equal to the full remaining value of the contract, with no upper limit, so make sure you know what you're signing up for.
Summary: Clear Networks stands out as a regionally focused provider, but lags behind on its typical evening connection speeds.
Can't get a fixed-line connection but still in range of a signal tower? Clear Networks has a set of fixed wireless plans with different data limits.
Clear Networks has a bunch of different satellite plans available, including Nite for people who mostly use data overnight, and Education plans for students.
On a Sky Muster Plus plan, most common online activities won't chew into your data allowance, except for video streaming and VPN activity.
