Optus NBN plans are available across a couple different plan types and several speed tiers. There’s a more basic NBN plan type with speeds starting at NBN 25 and going up to NBN 1000, while the entertainer plan, which includes Netflix and other inclusions, starts at NBN 50 and goes up to NBN 1000 speeds.
All NBN plans from Optus are month-to-month and have the option to either add on a modem (for $0 when you stay connected over 36 months) or BYO modem. You can also add on a call pack, and Optus also offers customers the option to bundle a range of subscription services via Optus SubHub.
If you want a little more from your Optus NBN than just internet, there is a bundle plan with a little bit extra, which is designed with families in mind. The Optus Plus Family Entertainer plan has all the same inclusions as the Internet Everyday plan, but includes an Ultra WiFi Booster and Optus WiFi Secure. A standard Netflix subscription is also included for new and existing Netflix customers, which you can activate through Optus SubHub.
The prices you’ll pay for Optus NBN plans depends on whether you choose the more basic internet-only plan type or the entertainment plan, along with which speed tier you choose and any additional extras you might add on, such as call packs. Optus NBN plans prices start from around $70 per month and go up to around $150. Keep in mind that NBN wholesale prices can change and Optus may adjust its NBN plan prices accordingly.
If you’re looking to save on your NBN plan fees, Optus offers deals or discounts on NBN plans from time to time. You might want to keep an eye out to see what’s on offer to save on your plan fees when signing up.
Optus NBN plans are available with almost all of the NBN speed tiers, with NBN 12 and NBN 100/40 the only speed tiers missing. The Everyday internet plan is available with NBN 25, NBN 50, NBN 100, NBN 250 and NBN 1000 speed tiers, while the Entertainer plan is available across NBN 50, NBN 100, NBN 250 and NBN 1000 speed tiers.
Like other NBN providers, Optus lists a typical evening speed for its NBN plans, which gives customers an idea of what NBN speeds they can expect on their plan during the busy evening peak period between 7pm and 11pm. You can read our guide on typical evening speeds to find out more about Optus NBN speeds.
If you want a home phone with your Optus NBN service, you can add a call pack to your NBN plan for an additional $10 per month or $15 per month for an international call pack.
