NBN 250 plans are only available at select addresses due to your property's NBN connection type so not everyone can access it. Currently, only those with FTTP (Fibre To The Premises) or HFC (Hybrid Fibre Coaxial) connection types are eligible to sign up to NBN 250 plans.
To make sure you're able to get these plans at your location, check your address on the provider's website for confirmation. You can also input your address below and we'll show you what NBN connection type you have and which plans you have access to.
When our house became eligible for the fibre upgrade, I immediately took it up. We consistently get download speeds of over 250Mbps.— Matt Corke, Head of Publishing Ventures
An NBN 250 plan is designed for large households with 5 or more people online at the same time.
In fact the April 2023 ACCC broadband performance report says NBN 250 should easily be able to handle 7 devices streaming Ultra HD content simultaneously.
Expert tip: You can always try a slower speed tier before committing money towards faster internet speeds that you may not even need. Most NBN providers are more than happy to upgrade you to a faster plan if you decide the one you're on just isn't cutting it.

NBN 250 is the second fastest NBN speed category and offers a maximum download speed of 250Mbps.

If you find an NBN 250 plan still doesn't meet your need for speed, there is another option that is faster still. The NBN 1000 is the fastest NBN plan available on the market, with maximum download speed of 1000Mbps.
