nbn™ stands for National Broadband Network. It is the service in which the majority of Australians use to access the internet from their homes and businesses.
You can visit www.nbnco.com.au to learn more about nbn™ and visit our plans page to get connected today.
...read moreThe National Broadband Network (nbn™) is made up of a series of fibre optic cables. The cables run out from a Point of Exchange (or POI) in your local area. The cables will either run all the way to your home (FFTP), to the pit outside your home (FTTB) or to a ‘NODE’ somewhere near your home (FTTN).
In some cases an nbn™ connection can also be sent via Satellite or Fixed Wireless.
Find out more about the network on the NBN Co website.

Fixed wireless plus 75/10 is a new nbn™ speed tier designed exclusively to provide best-effort internet service for fixed wireless customers. This Fixed Wireless 25/5 plan will offer maximum speed potential of 75Mbps down/ 10Mbps up.
Please note: Speeds can be affected by a range of factors including the line of sight to the tower, nbn™ cell congestion, and/or nbn™ backhaul congestion.
What speeds will I get on the Fixed Wireless Plus 75/10 plan?
The nbn™ Fixed Wireless Plus 75/10 plan does not have a fixed speed specified. Instead of providing a capped speed tier like other nbn™ plans, the nbn™ Fixed Wireless Plus 75/10 plan aims to deliver the maximum potential speed the network is capable of delivering at the time of use. Available speeds on a Fixed Wireless Plus 75/10 plan will fluctuate during the day, and you may receive speeds that are s ...read more

When you enter your address in our service qualification tool on our nbn™ sign up page, you will see if an existing connection is available at your address.

FTTP activations
FTTP (Fibre to the Premises) involves fibre being connected right into your property or business. If this is the first time you are having nbnTM connected to the property, an NBN Co technician will attend site to complete the activation. They will install a box on the outside of the property, then usually drill through the wall and install equipment inside the property.

When you sign up for a More nbn™ plan, you will enter your address to see what sort of connection is available for your home. This will depend on the nbnTM delivery in your neighbourhood, and may impact what More plans are available to you. Typical nbnTM delivery types include Fibre to the Premises (FTTP), Fibre to the Node/Basement (FTTN/B), Fixed Wireless, Hybrid Fibre Coaxial (HFC) and Fibre to the Curb (FTTC).
The NBN250 plan is only available for FTTp and some HFC connections. When you enter your address during sign up, you will only be able to select nbnTM plans that are available at your home.
We will keep you up to date regularly on the progress of your order via email or sms.
It is important that you look out for these notifications as they will include important information on your activation appointment, if you require NBN Co to visit your property to get connected. Depending on the connection process for your property, you may be required to be in attendance, and missing an appointment will cause delays with your order.

The node is a box that is constructed in the street that transfer the internet from fibre optics to copper. If you have an existing copper telephone line connected to your property, nbn™ will use this for nbn™. Note that there is no need to continue paying line rental, you can opt to cancel the phone service after your nbn™ service has been connected.

We offer sticky IP addresses.
All More NBN plans include a free sticky IP address. Similar to a static IP, a sticky IP address will not change every time you restart your modem/router & reconnect to our network. This is useful if you wish to remotely access your network from outside your property. This may include remote access to your router, CCTV cameras, or a home media server or NAS device. The important point to note with sticky IPs is that in extremely rare occasions and as deemed necessary by our network team there may be rare instances where your sticky IP address could change.
Your sticky IP address is available after your service becomes active. You can quickly check what this is by going to http://whatismyipaddress.com or typing 'What's my IP' into Google.

Your nbnTM can run slowly for a number of reasons. When initially moving to an nbnTM connection, users often experience dramatically increased bandwidth compared to older ADSL services.
It is important to understand how your devices use the internet to ensure a good experience with the additional bandwidth. Things like the hardware and software that you use may affect the speed that you experience.
The technology used by NBN Co to deliver the service to your home or business may also affect your speeds.
It’s important to understand how many devices are using your nbn™ service.
It is always important to know how many users are on your network. Remember this can be via cabled ethernet connections to your modem, as well as via wifi. The more devices you have connected, the more your bandwidth is shared.
When you sign up to a More nbnTM plan, you will create an account with a username and password. You can use these credentials to login to our customer portal to access information regarding your account.

In 2014 the Australian Government made the decision to use a mixed technology approach to the nbn™ rollout. This means that certain properties will use parts of the old legacy copper telephone network to complete the NBN connection to your property. This legacy copper network is unfortunately prone to issues and we encounter some users using FTTN/FTTB and FTTC technologies experiencing connection dropouts due to this.
It is important to troubleshoot your FTTN/FTTB/FTTC connection prior to us logging a fault to NBN Co as in certain cases it is local internal copper wiring that can be causing the dropout issues.
In order to properly troubleshoot you should consider the following scenarios:
1. Only a single device is dropping out and other devices are not affected.
In this case it is likely an issue with a particular device. We recommend checking and replaci ...read more

If you are going overseas or do not require your nbn™ service for a long period of time, it may be beneficial to put your nbn™ Plan on hold.
We can assist with this. However, to prevent charges coming through from nbn™ we would need to cancel your service, and then re-activate it when you are ready to start using your service again. This works in the same way as putting the service on hold and nbn™ charges would cease to come through. We would not recommend doing this if the period of time is less than a month as your service will still be charged up to the end of the month that you wish to cancel it.
When we re-activate your service we would need to assist in re configuring your modem as you will receive a new username when the service is re-activated. This is a quick task and our dedicated technical support team can easily assist you with this.

Google Nest Wifi, a mesh wifi system, provides wifi to your whole house. In terms of functionality, once the Google Nest Wifi system is set up it will result in a stronger and more stable Wifi connection throughout your home.

A normal nbn™ modem is a single device. For medium to larger homes, a normal modem can restrict Wifi access and the number of devices that need to connect to the modem can impede its functionality. A Mesh system, like Google Nest Wifi, with one Wifi router and one Wifi point will be strong enough to handle up to 200 connected devices and stream multiple 4k videos at a time.
