  Belong, 12 month contract, $55 per month for unlimited data & 50/20 speeds (if you change your router settings to not use their DNS). I switched to them from TPG for FTTN NBN and haven't looked back!

    That plan is $65 on their website at the moment, which is more expensive than Exetel's nbn50 plan. Where did you see that plan for $55?

      The $55 plan will get you 30mbps speeds however like I mentioned, I get 45/18 speeds even during peak times due to not using their DNS.

    Are you on FTTN ?

  Thanks mate, fact sheet says 30Mbps download speed on Starter Plan. Are the DNS slowing it down? Did you change to Google DNS?

    Yes, I have NBN FTTN with Belong and for me they slow it down by DNS. Hence I changed to other DNS and get around 45/18 speeds (I'm about 600m away from the node).

      Not sure if its worth taking the risk, as they could get onto the DNS issue at any time…

  I would love to know where the cheap unlimited NBN100 plans are. Anything out there cheaper than tangerine?

    Any issues with Tangerine?

      I was with them for 3 months (wireless NBN 50/20), speed was ok but AussieBB are faster. My main gripe with them was they charge an extra fee for paying by any means except direct debit from a bank account, an extra fee for credit card is annoying but not that unusual but they charge a fee for EFT payments too. So I left.

  My first YEAR w/ MyRepublic:

  Unlimited
  100 Mb/Sec (NBN100?)

  was priced at AU$ 60 / mon.

  $1 for modem
  $0 to install / setup

  & that was in Outback SA!

  ---

  Now, NBN50 costs $10 more
  (but you MUST pay for
  unlimited Calls our to
  Au Landlines; which we
  do Not make)

  Of course, you pay extra,
  for NBN100, but only as
  you need it

  At least you can get NBN100
  as/when needed, mon. by mon.
  (ie, when you no longer need
  that speed, you can drop it
  to NBN50 & its lower price.
