How the Finder Score helps you find a better broadband plans
We designed the Finder Score to simplify your search for the best NBN and Home Wireless plans. By analysing hundreds of options from over 40 providers, we evaluate pricing, speeds, data allowances and plan features. Each factor is weighted and combined to generate a score out of 10 — helping you quickly spot the most competitive plans on the market. Read the full breakdown.
What features are included with Exetel's NBN plan?
Exetel not only boasts fast, reliable speeds, but its plan also comes with some extra features:
Hibernate
If you're going away or won't be using your internet for a while, Exetel's Hibernate feature lets you reduce your speed and save $1 a day.
Speeds drop to 12/1Mbps, similar to an NBN 12 plan, which is enough for basic tasks like browsing or keeping a security camera connected.
Warp Speed
For an extra $1 a day, you can activate Warp Speed to boost your connection to 1000Mbps, which is twice as fast as what you'd normally be on.
It's perfect for times when you need to download large files or stream in 4K across multiple devices.
The upgrade activates within 15 minutes and automatically reverts after 24 hours.
Refer a friend
Share your unique code with a friend and you'll both get $1 off your internet bill for every month you stay connected.
The more people you share it with, the more you can save.
Self-service app
You can easily manage your account through the Exetel app.
It allows you to monitor your connection, diagnose network issues, pay bills and activate features like Warp Speed and Hibernate.
How does Exetel rate on performance?
Exetel has a strong track record for delivering the speeds it advertises.
This is when network demand is typically at its peak, with more people online streaming, gaming or working from home.
How does Exetel rate for customer service?
Exetel uses a digital-first approach for customer support, which means you won't be able to call the team.
Instead, support is available through online channels.
You can get in touch with an agent via live chat on its website between 9am and 9pm AEST, any day of the week.
For common queries, a 24/7 virtual assistant named 'Mo' can help with billing or connection issues.
The Exetel app also includes troubleshooting tools to diagnose and resolve problems yourself.
The latest available ACMA report shows Exetel continues to handle broadband complaints efficiently, resolving NBN and internet issues in an average of 5 days.
Exetel's 'One Plan' is only available to addresses with a Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) or Hybrid Fibre Coaxial (HFC) NBN connection.
If you have a Fibre to the Node (FTTN) or Fibre to the Curb (FTTC) connection, you may be eligible for a free upgrade to FTTP to access the plan.
You can check your eligibility using the address checker on the Exetel website.
To get the most out of a 500Mbps plan, a Wi-Fi 6 router is recommended. It's better suited to handling high speeds and multiple devices at once.
Older Wi-Fi 5 routers can still work, but speeds may drop depending on distance, congestion, or interference.
Very old devices with "Fast Ethernet" ports will also be capped at 100Mbps, no matter your plan speed.
Exetel's NBN plan is offered on a month-to-month basis with no lock-in contracts, which means you can leave at any time. There are no cancellation fees, but you will be charged for the remainder of your current billing month if you cancel halfway through.
No, Exetel's 'One Plan' does not include a home phone or VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) service.

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.
Some content on this site is generated or supported by artificial intelligence tools, including our AI-powered assistant FinderBot. AI-generated content may contain errors. Please verify important information directly with the product issuer before making a financial decision. For more information about FinderBot, see the FinderBot Terms of Use and FinderBot Privacy Collection Notice.
Please read our website terms of use and privacy policy for more information about our services and our approach to privacy.
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.
