The NBN® broadband access network is designed to provide Australians with high-speed internet through the NBN® Multi Technology Mix (MTM). This mix includes NBN® Fixed Line, Fixed Wireless, and Sky Muster® satellite technologies, ensuring reliable and fast broadband access. Perfect for Australian customers seeking top-quality NBN services.

Types of NBN Connections:

• Fibre to the Premises (FTTP): This connection type, known for its high performance, uses an optical fibre that runs directly to the premises.

• Fibre to the Node (FTTN)

• Fibre to the Building (FTTB)

• Fibre to the Curb (FTTC)

• Hybrid Fibre Coaxial (HFC)

• Fixed Wireless

The NBN optical fibre network in Australia connects to a node installed outside the premises, with multiple nearby premises sharing a single node. The link between the node and each premise utilizes existing copper cables, with efforts made to minimize the distance between the premises and the node. This setup ensures efficient and reliable high-speed broadband access for Australian customers seeking NBN services.

NBNCo implemented this $300 fee to help recover the costs of deploying network infrastructure to new premises or dwellings. If this fee applies to you, we will inform you before submitting the order to NBN Co. The order will only be submitted to NBN Co once we receive your written acceptance of the charge. This ensures transparency for Australian customers seeking NBN services.

The best NBN connection type is Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP). This connection involves running a fibre optic cable directly from the NBN point of interconnect (POI) to your property. FTTP supports the fastest download speeds, currently maxing out at 1Gbps. This makes it ideal for Australian customers seeking the highest performance and reliability in their NBN services.

Standard NBN installation is free of charge during the 18-month period after NBN is declared 'ready for service' in your area. However, additional charges may apply if your home or business needs wiring or cabling upgrades, or if you request a non-standard installation. This is important for Australian customers seeking NBN services to ensure they understand potential costs.

Telstra doesn't own the NBN, but as an internet service provider, we can help you get connected.

If you are connecting to Optus NBN for the first time, you'll receive a SIM card to insert into your modem. If you already have an existing modem with 4G backup, such as the 5366LTE modem, you will need to remove the SIM card from the old modem and insert it into the new one. This ensures a smooth transition for Australian customers seeking Optus NBN services.

If your property has not previously been connected to NBN, an NBN technician will likely need to visit to activate your service. Typically, the time frame for an NBN activation appointment ranges from 1 to 3 weeks. This information is crucial for Australian customers seeking to connect to NBN services.
