Exetel home wireless

Home wireless broadband is a relatively new option for home internet on the Australian market, but it's popularity is growing fast. Home wireless is internet delivered over the same networks used by your smartphone. And it's a great option if your home doesn't have a fixed line connection or if your fixed line connection doesn't perform as well as you would like it to. It can also be handy if you move around a lot and want an internet connection you can take with you.

Exetel's home wireless plans deliver internet over the Optus 4G network. The plans come with 250GB of data included and download speeds of up to 12Mbps, which is equivalent to the slowest NBN speed tier. 

You can pick from a 12-month contract or a contract-free plan. If you opt for a 12-month contract, you'll get the modem at half-price.

Exetel fibre to the basement

If you live in an apartment building, it's possible that you can sign up for one of Exetel's fibre plans. These plans give you access to fibre networks that have been installed by private companies in certain apartment buildings in some areas of Australia. These private networks are actually separate to the NBN and can be used as an NBN alternative.

Exetel even offers some of the same speed tiers as the NBN on fibre. You can choose from:

• Fibre 12 (equivalent to NBN 12)
• Fibre 25 (equivalent to NBN 25)
• Fibre 100 (similar to NBN 100)

All Exetel fibre plans have unlimited data.
