Had an issue with home WiFi periodically dropping out of certain rooms. AussieBroadband (ABB) support staff member 'Tara' did a fantastic job examining my problems, then sorting it out with adjustments to my ABB supplied equipment. Much improved since, thanks Tara. Great service, great staff. Show details

The NBNCo installer, Muhammad Ali spent 5 hours reinstalling our outdoor fibre cables, internal cables and both internal and external boxes. He was always friendly, professional and hard working even though he had to replace all cabling twice. He had to connect our home from the footpath. He made sure I was happy with the installation before I… Read more

signed off. He deserves praise from AussieBroadband and NBNCo. AussieBroadband had our home connected within 5 minutes of the installation.

1.Why does my NBN useage summary not coincide with my Invoice dates ? Or even calendar month summaries? 2.This Review page is far too complex. Why am I being asked all these additional questions below ? 3.Why when I request info on Pensioner discounts, I get a response "No Results found for Residential" 4. Where is information for Persioners. Show details

The technician was on time, Polite, quick, yet methodical. He cleaned up after himself, He listned well and understood tall he customers needs - I encountered No problems. I did read all the required information beforehand, so i kind of knew what was going to happen on the install date. Show details ·  1

After being with starlink for years due to crappy NBN connections, I was advised to go fibre.

away did a speed test and and I'm pulling 1000 no problem even in peak times. AB is so easy to deal with and upfront, the account online is super easy to use. all this and it's still cheaper than my starlink!!!

Free Fibre upgrade was a breeze with AB. NBN techs arrived as scheduled. Did a very good and clean install inside my Rack! The new NTD is nice and small now. Would note I did hire a private cabler to create the internal fibre pathway in my ceiling to have the NTD where I wanted. AB are offering a free upgrade which does not include complex installs as NBN techs won't go inside your ceiling for safety reasons. Show details ·  1

Very fast and efficient process. No hitches. Excellent communication. Not the cheapest in the market but has a good reputation & Australian Call Centres with fast & friendly service. Only connected yesterday. Download speed between 50 and 51 but upload speed well off the mark at between 4 and 5 when it should be 20 but my uploads were negligible in the 24hrs so we need more time to assess. Overall could not ask for more. Well done Aussie Show details ·  1

I recently upgraded to Aussie Broadband’s 500/50 Fast Fibre NBN plan and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. From my initial phone enquiry, the customer service team were knowledgeable, patient and clear in explaining my options, with no pressure or upselling. The upgrade process itself was seamless, with clear… Read more ·  1

communication at every step and realistic timeframes that were actually met. Installation and activation were completely pain free, with everything working exactly as promised from the moment the service went live. It was refreshing to deal with a company that values professionalism, transparency and customer experience. The speed and reliability of the connection have been excellent, and the process to get there could not have been easier. I would confidently recommend Aussie Broadband to anyone considering an NBN upgrade.

Aussie Broadband service was excellent. Had communicated with them twice before taking the plunge to join them. The consultants were not hard selling and it was just comfortable dealing with Aussie Broadband. Was informed about the Black Friday sales and to wait for them. Decided to join the 100/20 speed as it was cheaper than the 50/20 speed, at… Read more ·  1

least for 6 months anyway. The 50/20 speed is more expensive than with other ISPs but you pay for the excellent service and it’s well worth it. We received the modem yesterday. It took all of 5 minutes to set it up. We are getting a faster speed than with our previous ISP, possibly due to the TP-Link modem that was supplied 2 years ago. The Aussie Broadband modem is a Netcomm one. It was just plug and play and scan the QR code to get the wifi going. We have hard wired the main computers to the modem router and we are getting a speed of 47mbps. Our maximum line speed is 50. Upload speed is still limited to under 8mbps. We might have to change to a Cat 6a cable rather than the Cat 5 cables that we had. Two Cat 5e cables were supplied in the box as well as the cable for the DSL line. The wifi speed is a little less at about 36-42mbps but much better than the 25-35mbps speed that we were getting with the previous ISP. The Aussie Broadband app is simple to use and a mine full of information. I would recommend Aussie Broadband to anyone who would like a first class service.

Getting my actual line speed which my prior telco (who had kindly leaked my personal details previously) couldn't get right.

I've been with Aussie for a little over 3 years now. When I had a 1000Mbps connection with them it was always around 950Mbps even during peak times. Currently I have a 500Mbps connection (downgraded to save a bit of money) and it is regularly around… Read more ·  1

540Mbps. Independent DNS tests I have done have shown that Aussie's DNS servers are the fastest for me to worldwide locations. Never had dropouts (other than rare scheduled maintenance of course, which I get plenty of warning for and are done during off peak times). Always had good customer support experiences with them too, I like the fact that all of their staff are located in Australia. They are very transparent and open about everything. Only con is that they are slightly more expensive, but all of the above makes that worth it for me.

 Follow-up  · To answer some follow-up questions, I don't normally upload much but it's always measured at around 46-48Mbps whenever I do a speed test. I do auto backups to Koofr but the speed depends on the size and number of the files and on the Koofr servers themselves, but it's never seemed too slow. I don't stream or do online gaming (Steam game downloads… Read more

their Traralgon office today 20/2/2026 and was very politely told they are not providing support for non-corporate and non-business clients any more. Called in to the local Optus store to discuss change over. We have 2 mobiles, VOIP and fast NBN. Salesman was beside himself and could not believe that residential services are no longer serviced. WHAT!! Did this really happen today? Is it true? Looks like ABB has dropped the ball big time. We residential clients helped build ABB, now we are ditched? In the past ABB has been brilliant and exceptionally helpful. I have even left rave reviews online. So sad. Sorry ABB management, but you have made a real mistake especially after the recent take overs. Were the shareholders asked for their opinion? By the way, I found the problem with my mobile and changed one small configuration - not bad for an old geyser eh. Looking for another provider..... :-(

 Follow-up  · I have received an apology from ABB suggesting that they did indeed drop the ball on this one and it may have been just the one representative who made a mistake. Meanwhile, I have not changed to OPTUS, they are well out of my league in costs and services provided. I choose to stay with ABB for the simple reason that they are not too big to offer… Read more

I get one week out of the month decent connection, the rest of the time is a modge podge of high latency, packet loss and service outages in the NT. I call almost every few weeks and every few weeks I go through the same hoops 75% of the time its related to an outage in Darwin; the support team tries to gas light me into believing the connection… Read more

was always this way, except it happens so often I have multiple tracert's and ping tests to a bunch of servers they have requested as proof its not. On the last time I called the snake oil salesman tried to claim that without an nbn upgrade this was how it was going to be for now (1/3 the speed I normally get with recorded drops), I asked how I could do that in an MBU full of rentals, I received an unenthusiastic "Contact your body corp". Cool thanks mate, I am sure a bunch of land lords cheaping out are going to help me.

A week and a bit after this call the connection improved again for another week, before it once again has died. Its been a year of this nonsense and it doesn't matter who I talk to (support, accounts or complaints; which I have the sneaking suspicion its all the same team) I do the same tests and same canned responses.

I am tired, paying $105 a month for this is a draining.
