PineappleNet has a Black Friday special for home internet - $49 for 150Mbps symmetrical speeds. Certainly a lot better prices, speed and service than NBN.

PineappleNet is a reseller of the DGTek fibre network, who operate only in buildings in very limited areas near Melbourne CBD and some South Eastern suburbs. And not in every building, so check your address to see if they're available.

I've been a customer for over 2 years and very happy to recommend.

Referral solicitation removed — Mod.

    very good price and nice to see symmetrical speeds. unlike NBN with 1000/50

      Wish we had more competition to the NBN.

        Bring back Telstra Bigpond cable! Best internet.

        Honestly, I DO like the concept of one network… if it wasn't done as badly as it was.
        Seriously, I'll never forgive the Liberal government (and more specifically Murdoch) for setting back Australia's technological infrastructure 100 years.
        Although ordinary Australian people are less likely to care since they actually have a life going out into the green and kicking the oval ball.

      Pretty easy to do when you just need a fat pipe into a building and not need to somehow provide fibre to Bundanoon, Jimboomba and Lake Wendouree (I just picked three funny sounding names off the fibre upgrade list).

      I'm a fan of 500/200 coming down in cost too. Nowhere near as good as this, but it'll be nice once my 30 day wait with superloop is up to move over. Should see a price drop next year too. That 500/500 is something like $350 wholesale on NBN though is just a joke.

        Don't forget about FTTP in Cockburn Central and Ocean Beach, WA 🤣

    Would love to try these guys but still not available in my area

    • Opaquer on 13/11/2024 - 17:06

      Same, eagerly awaiting the day when something similar is available in Brisbane!

      • leeeeeeeeeevye on 13/11/2024 - 22:13

        Tried Capti? I get about 900mbps down and 110 up through them in Melbourne. They're based in Brisbane and probably have more reach up there too.

    • tp0 on 13/11/2024 - 17:19

      I wouldn't hold your breath. They only serve large apartment buildings. Even if they "serve" your area they won't connect you.

  • TTerBNZ on 13/11/2024 - 16:52

    With this available in my building why am i on 100\40 nbn for more?

  • mavis30551 on 13/11/2024 - 17:13

    I am confused. It’s FTTP but not NBn FTTP?

      DGTek setup their own private FTTP network in limited areas.

      Fttp is one of different kinds of cable run design, nothing to do with NBN

  • Save 50 Cent on 13/11/2024 - 17:24

    Any deals on apartments in Melbourne CBD?

      Bad investment. Terrible resale value on over-supplied CBD apartment market.

    Nice, symmetrical speeds. Did WFH during COVID not teach us anything? Why is this not more readily available?

      Because liberals mixed technology 💩. I’m not salty at all.

    I'm with pineapple. They're amazing.
    They are the cheapest reseller of DGtek.

  • retainer on 13/11/2024 - 17:50

    Damn, coverage ends two streets away :/

    Basically what entry level NBN should have been

  • check on 13/11/2024 - 18:15

    Good and bad news:

    "Your address is within the DGtek Footprint.
    However it is not currently connected, and will require additional work to be completed."

    • the fig man on 13/11/2024 - 19:12

      me too.. "Thanks for getting in touch! We'll add your building to our Roll-Out map, and keep you updated if we plan on connecting your building."

    • Ryxxi on 13/11/2024 - 21:13

      Yeah Same, they will ask for $5k to set it up. DGTek is very hit and miss. I have been in their service area for 1.5years.

      • Koffee on 13/11/2024 - 21:37

        Are you an apartment/unit?

    Here is the DGTek Map

    • Pratty on 13/11/2024 - 19:02

      Wow it’s expanded since I checked last. That’s exciting

    You can tell it's not NBN because there's no 150 NBN speed.

    • wetsandwich on 13/11/2024 - 18:57
      +3

      And because it's 1/3 of the price it would be if the NBN did have that speed

      • Mondorock on 13/11/2024 - 19:52

        Meh, for $30 more you can get 250 NBN.

  • Ryxxi on 13/11/2024 - 21:12

    Am in their service area but they dont wana connect me because I live in an apartment.

  • Poor Ass on 13/11/2024 - 22:18
