Business NBN includes a static IP, choice of bandwidth profiles, faster upload options and different levels of support.
A residential connection is designed for residential customers and comes with a "best effort" commitment for up time and faults repair. If it takes NBN 24 hours to repair a fault, that's how long it takes and there's nothing you can do about it. If the connection has faults every other day, it has faults every other day and whilst they'll do their best to repair those faults you aren't guaranteed uptime. Residential customers are also only guaranteed the minimum speeds required by law regardless of the plan selected, where the current minimum deliverable speed by NBN to a residential customer is 1.5mbps. As long as you're receiving that, they've fulfilled their obligation. Likewise, your support is the general residential support where they will walk you through isolation testing first when trying to diagnose faults. Residential customers are fixed at TC-4, giving your data equal priority with the general pool.
Residential plans with aussie can optionally purchase a static IP for an additional $5/m or dynamically resolve an IP from the general DHCP pool. Honestly, unless you have a specific use case for a static IP such as setting up a web server on your network that can be accessed from the internet, dynamic is all a home account ever needs.
A business plan by contrast is designed for business customers where down time and faults can mean a halt to operation and require an ABN to even apply for. For that reason business plans can purchase a Service Agreement Guarantee (SAG) which guarantees a minimum level of up time for the connection and a minimum throughput. A SAG plan is coupled with an Enhanced Service Level Agreement (eSLA) which guarantees a maximum time period for faults resolution. For example, all AussieBB SAGs are 99% uptime, with eSLA ranging from 12 hours to 4 hours at increased cost for each level. For example at the time of writing a 100/40 connection with a 4 hour eSLA from AussieBB is $329/m, where if it took them say 5 hours to fix the fault they would owe you money.
Along with that you get business level support, where unless otherwise told they'll assume an onsite IT person already conducted isolation testing so you move through the faults process faster. As a B2B account, there is a tax obligation on your end because AussieBB are passing their GST obligation along to you. Your account automatically comes with a static IP included. Business customers can tailor their up/down throughput to their specific needs instead of being limited to preset standardised plans. If as a business customer you need 1Gbps/1Gbps and are willing to pay for it, including the potential need to install new FTTP infrastructure then you can have it. Likewise business customers can choose their TC level, from TC-4 to TC-2, where the lower the TC number the higher priority your data obtains and thus a higher ability to maintain consistent throughput regardless of network traffic. So for example, if you're paying for a TC-2 connection and a bunch of TC-4 customers jumped on using a lot of data, your data would be prioritised over theirs and potentially slowing their connections in order to maintain yours. It's not cheap though.
Basically, if you're running a business at the site you order a business plan. If you're a general residential user, you order a residential plan. If you're self employed, work from home then you need to weigh up the pros and cons of a residential plan verse a business plan with your accountant and IT contractor.
How long out of ABB do you need to be to be considered NEW customer
I don't know if business is different. Normally 6 months.
Need abn dang
Easy to sign up for one ;)
does it have any affect during tax day?
Only if you submit a BAS
@wakie: Plus BAS is only mandatory if you're registered for GST and you only have to be registered for GST if your business turnover is greater than $75,000 per year…. I think, unless things have changed.
Absolutely. Having an ABN for tax purposes means you are operating a business. You must be actively operating such a business to qualify for an ABN, and it changes your tax obligation.
For starters, as this is a business to business product you are stuck resolving the GST owed at tax time. You further have to submit P&L statements, depreciation statements, etc when lodging your tax. You can see your full tax obligations as a business on the ATO website.
You absolutely should NOT request an ABN just to try and get 1 month free internet.

This code doesn't work for any other plans.
Thanks Twix, worked perfectly. SAG and eSLA are reasonably priced with aussie as well, very nice.
Can any confirm if the code is still working?
thanks.
What’s different with business NBN compared to residential?
