    Sounds good, but …."Unfortunately, 5G Home Internet isn’t available in your area. You may be able to get a 4G Home Internet Plan." :(

    • megaalc on 17/12/2021 - 23:11

      bad luck

    • xentar on 18/12/2021 - 00:10

      Does anyone know the reason or qualification for this? Mobile 5G is great here. The coverage map shows complete coverage. I could probably have a conversation with the tower raiding my voice a bit (admittedly it would be pretty one sided).

      Meanwhile fttn has been delivering under 16 mbps not sure if peak or possibly heavy rain messing with copper. Love to know vodas official position on eligible locations.

      • Will630 on 18/12/2021 - 00:50

        Telstra 5G Home Internet may not yet be in your area.
        You may be in a 5G coverage area, but your address may not be getting the minimum download speed of 50Mbps required for 5G Home Internet to work.
        Maybe the same reason like Telstra.

    Last time on the Black Friday sale I got told by a store employee that there is no home wireless broadband 5G in Victoria. Does anyone in Melbourne have this service?
    I should him coverage map and he said it for mobile phone plans only.

    • Will630 on 17/12/2021 - 23:20

      Maybe only available at ACT and NSW.

      I got it as part of trial month. Speeds aren't bad, about 200Mbps. I live in one of the Wyndham suburbs, probably limited areas within Victoria.

  • kevst on 17/12/2021 - 23:26

    Ping is a bit far from desired in my area; download speed varies from 150 to 350.

      Mine's kinda similar in metro ADL, honestly speaking IMO it's just 4G internet that is branded to 5G to increase price tag

      around 100-300 Mbps Down (usually around 200Mbps down) and 30- 50 Mbps Up (usually 36Mbps Up)

  • Doy on 17/12/2021 - 23:55

    Give us a good 4G deal :(

    • Will630 on 18/12/2021 - 00:43

      same discount as well, however if cancel before 24 months, you need to pay off your modem. price should be $25/$30 though, still cheaper than NBN.

      • USER DC on 18/12/2021 - 01:01

        pretty sure the 4G deals are capped @ something like 20 Mbps

    • Mr Mrrtn on 20/12/2021 - 07:41

      I called up vodaphone and they offered the same 1/2 price deal for their 4g plan

      I’m currently signed up for $30 per month for 12 months, $60 after that. No contract. Unlimited data on 4g network capped at 20mbps. Comes with modem that’s free, but need to pay prorata remainder of $7/month if you cancel before 24 months is out.

  • unifex on 18/12/2021 - 00:49

    how much data?

    • Will630 on 18/12/2021 - 00:51

      Unlimited but the speed is capped at 20mbps.

      • USER DC on 18/12/2021 - 01:02

        ???

        speed is capped at 20mbps.

        on 4G plan only, the deal page is on 5G home internet BTW

  • Mr Bob Dobalina on 18/12/2021 - 04:00

    Not even available in Melbourne CBD, what a joke.

  • RG146 on 18/12/2021 - 08:36

    Given Vodafone, not surprised to get this:
    "Unfortunately, 5G Home Internet isn’t available in your area.

    You may be able to get a 4G Home Internet Plan."

    • spiinl on 18/12/2021 - 09:09

      You need to be 250meters from a 5g tower

    Another Vodafail. Nobody seems eligible.

    • Haliax on 18/12/2021 - 10:38

      I'm using Vodafone's 5g (getting 250MBps) on my phone, and it tells me I'm not eligible. So, it could be in your area.

    Last deal I wasn't eligible bit it appears I am eligible now. Suspicious.

    • Cousin IT on 18/12/2021 - 11:30

      Maybe they're upgrading towers and you're now eligible?

      I would say suspicious if the deal was different, like you would pay more, but it's the same price as the Black Friday deal.

  • BaeSuzy on 18/12/2021 - 10:06

    my speeds dropped after the 1st month…. suspicious??

  • Jimbuscus on 18/12/2021 - 15:05

    Already using Felix 20mbps, via Vodafone Network for $35. Vodafone 5G would have been better at that price but not available here in Malvern.

    The Vodafone 4G option is no faster than Felix for a lot higher price.

    My Felix is in a $100 AC1200 with LTE Sim support from eBay, Looks like $164 atm, should go on sale.

    • Mr Mrrtn on 20/12/2021 - 07:43
      +1

      Felix has just started cracking down on “unauthorised “ devices, eg 4g modems. I was on this plan and my felix service was suspended suddenly on Friday. This vodaphone deal is pretty good alternative

      • Jimbuscus on 20/12/2021 - 07:44

        What hardware did you have it set up on?

        • Mr Mrrtn on 25/12/2021 - 07:32

          A b818 4g modem
          Average of 500gb monthly usage

          • Jimbuscus on 25/12/2021 - 08:00

            @Mr Mrrtn: I used 700gb in the first month, since then it is closer to 350gb.

      • GordonD on 20/12/2021 - 13:33

        So if they don't "approve" of 4G modems, get a 4G phone and USB tether it to the router. What they'd detect on their network is a phone not a modem.

        • Mr Mrrtn on 25/12/2021 - 07:34

          USB tether doesn’t work well for iPhone, and android devices only have quite a select list of approved devices. My LG Android phone wasn’t supported and felix stated they couldn’t activate my service if I used it with that phone

      • Oofy Doofy on 20/12/2021 - 15:54

        More likely because of massive usage. This isn't unusual and part of their fair use policy.

  • Kunalb84 on 18/12/2021 - 19:27

    I got this today…$42.50 for 12 months + 1 month trial.
    They do credit check. Took 20 mins to complete the things at store. They give Nokia 5g pre activated modem plug n connect.
    Speed test showing D 140mbps U 45mbps.
    But connection dropped once but it might not be any serious issue.
    Will use for few days and then can give actual feedback.
    Hope this helps.

    • USER DC on 20/12/2021 - 20:08

      It is $37.5 or $42.50 for 11 months not 12 months

      12 month max cost (assuming your return the modem in good working condition) is $412.5 or $467.5 (which includes paying for 11 months).

      I've found the 5G light to go to orange quite often like once every 1-3 days, during evening times, and its back to green in mornings

      • step2au on 20/12/2021 - 21:47

        The light went to orange means it switching to 4G when no reception for 5G?

        • USER DC on 20/12/2021 - 21:51

          Yeah possibly or means poor 5G signal

          • step2au on 20/12/2021 - 22:51

            @USER DC: Any idea what spead it is roughly when switching to 4G signal? On their website its 4G plan speed limited to 20M, my concern is once swtiching to 4G signal the speed might be limited automatically?

            • USER DC on 20/12/2021 - 23:39
              +2

              @step2au: Oh man, i had speeds of as low as 1 Mbps (When they were doing maintenance work, which they didn't inform me about at all lasted about like 10 hrs) but after multiple hrs of time wasting with their CS/TS team, they gave me $20 Credit.
              But generally speaking speed stays around about 130-200 Mbps Down, 30-50 Mbps Up. Max is about 330 Mbps down(I've gotten it), 55 Mbps Up. When light is all green, it usually stays around 185 Mbps.
              Even when the light goes orange speed generally doesn't go below 70 Mbps download, it will still usually stay around 130 Mbps.

    • drfuzzy on 29/12/2021 - 12:41

      @kunalb84 can we have an update?

      • Kunalb84 on 14/01/2022 - 10:40

        I have been using now for close to a month now….Not having any issues with speed or dropouts.

        Avg Peek hour Speed D - 70Mbps and U - 40Mbps and Off Peek D - 120Mbps and U - 45Mbps (Connected via Mesh)

        Compare to Superloop with ADSL2 I had a limit of 100Mbps so overall happy with this.

        And for info I am in 5G region within 100m from Vodafone store so network is pretty fine.
