Read more about Telstra's business broadband plans
In the 21st century, making sure your business is connected all the time is essential, so choosing a business broadband plan that offers peace of mind with your connectivity is wise.
Telstra offers a selection of business broadband plans for all different connection types, including ADSL, mobile broadband and the NBN. All are available on no-lock-in, month-to-month contracts.
For fixed-line broadband connections, you'll receive a modem router with your service as well as a static IP address for your business. If you cancel your contract within 24 months of connecting, you'll need to pay out the remaining cost of the included modem at a rate of $9 per month remaining.
Some business broadband bundles also include the peace of mind of switching to the Telstra mobile network during a fixed-line outage, unlimited uploads with any uploads you make not counted as part of your monthly quota, and the ability to include business apps like Office 365 in your monthly broadband bill.
As the country's largest provider of broadband and mobile services, Telstra is available practically everywhere in Australia, making it an easy choice for small business owners.
Because Telstra has traditionally run a lot of the fixed-line infrastructure in Australia, it has always charged a premium price for its plans, which it justified by the premium network it offered to its customers. For business customers, there is still a premium attached to Telstra's costs, though the fact you can combine your business applications, services and work phone line into a single account helps explain some of this extra cost.
Telstra has recently launched the Telstra Plus program, which allows customers (including small businesses) to earn points monthly when they pay their bill. Via the Telstra Plus store, customers can redeem their points on devices, accessories and more. Telstra also offers free, dedicated small business support specialists in-store to give your business the help it needs, so you can get the most from your business broadband connection.

finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stands by our editorial principles
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.

We update our data regularly, but information can change between updates. Confirm details with the provider you're interested in before making a decision.
