SkyMesh offers satellite and fixed wireless NBN plans with a focus on rural and regional areas.
Its plans are priced competitively and there's an opportunity to lower your costs by signing up to a 12-month contract.
SkyMesh NBN is right for you if:
You're looking for a competitively priced satellite NBN plan with loads of plans to choose from.
Your household has students enrolled in an NBN-recognised distance learning school in Queensland, South Australia or Tasmania, who can benefit from SkyMuster's Educational Plans with cheap anytime data.
However, you should also consider that:
While 12-month Sky Muster plans offer more data for a cheaper price, they have an early termination cost of $200. Make sure you're ready to commit for a year before signing up.
SkyMesh's satellite plans cover both regular Sky Muster and Sky Muster Plus, with the latter offering unmetered data except for video streaming and VPN use during peak hours (4pm–midnight).
The satellite NBN plans are priced well but there are some providers like Activ8me offering cheaper plans with similar features. There are no activation or set-up fees.
The Sky Muster Educational Plans offer a good deal for students with anytime data that can be pooled if more than 1 student is using the plan.
The modems start from $199.99 if you don't plan on using your own.
Things to watch out for:
If you sign up to a no lock-in plan, you will only need to give a 30-day notice before cancellation.
A 12-month Sky Muster plan will also require you to pay an early termination fee of $200 if you choose to end your contract earlier.
SkyMesh offers 3 fixed wireless plans with different data amounts to choose from: 100GB, 600GB or unlimited.
With more providers offering fixed wireless plans, SkyMesh's stack up average against the market. With no typical evening speeds advertised, you could find a better price for a specified speed elsewhere.
Performance
Since the ACCC broadband performance report focuses on fixed-line NBN, SkyMesh's plans are not covered. This makes it difficult to verify its speeds' reliability.
Why this matters: The ACCC report allows customers to see which NBN providers deliver the speeds they've advertised, as a measure of reliability.
Additionally, SkyMesh doesn't advertise any typical evening speeds on its fixed wireless plans, which means you could receive speeds well below the maximum threshold.
Customer service
Local customer support
You can get in touch with Skymesh in the following ways:
Give them a call between 8am and 8pm AEDT on weekdays and from 9am to 5pm on weekends and public holidays.
Request a callback while in queue or by sending an SMS.
Fill out your enquiry in the online form.
Good to know: SkyMesh's customer support team is based locally in Brisbane, Queensland.
Bonus features
Besides SkyMesh's special plan offerings for distance learning students in Australia, it only really has 1 more additional feature:
💰 Referral reward
Successfully referring a friend to SkyMesh's satellite or fixed wireless NBN can earn both of you $100 in cash. This is a great offer as far as referral deals are concerned.
Which rivals are giving SkyMesh a run for its money?
For competitive satellite NBN:
Activ8me is another provider with a wide range of satellite broadband plans, along with Sky Muster Pro which gives you a daily data allowance instead of monthly.
For budget-friendly fixed wireless:
Tangerine has a range of fixed wireless plans and some of the cheapest plans on Finder. It offers 6-month sign-up discounts to sweeten the deal.

We live in the Kimberley’s at a remote resort and can only get a set amount of internet a month. So I’m just wondering why can’t we get unlimited internet access through satellite?
Please note that we are not affiliated with SkyMesh or any company we feature on our site and so we can only offer you general advice.
If you are with SkyMesh, please read more about their NBN satellite plans. You may contact them directly to inquire if it’s possible for you to get unlimited internet at your address.
I’ve checked a number of addresses on Margaret River and I can’t find SkyMesh among the available providers. You can verify this by entering your complete address on our NBN tracker. Once you are able to get a result, just click the ‘Compare NBN plans’ button to check the broadband providers.
Alternatively, you may also directly get in touch with Skymesh Customer Service and have them check your address.

We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
