An FTTP or Fibre to the Premises connection is where a fibre optic cable runs directly to your premises.
FTTP is considered the fastest and most reliable NBN connection around, and you can access download speeds up to 1,000Mbps.
"I've used the NBN for my home broadband for years and moved from FTTN to FTTP. Wow, what a difference! Previously, living in the inner city I had issues with slow speeds due to FTTN running via very old copper wires. I moved over to FTTP as soon as it became available in my area and the reliability and speed increase was instant. Now I can work from home without drop outs, which is a big win. To sign up to FTTP, I just requested it via my internet service provider and they organised the rest. I did need to be home so they could attach an NBN box to the front of my house, but that was the hardest part. Now that's done I can swap providers easily moving forward."
Finder found the average broadband user spends $75 per month on their internet plan, but your budget might very well be different. The price of your plan will largely depend on what NBN speed you're after.
This depends on the size of your household and what you're planning to use the internet for. The general rule is: The more people in your home and the more time you're spending on the internet, the faster the speed you'll need.
Unlimited is usually recommended if you use the internet regularly. Lighter users can potentially get away with plans that come with a specific data allowance, for example 10-500GB a month. Keep in mind this will save you around $5 a month, but may not be worth it if you think you'll exceed your data limit.
To help you find the right NBN plan for your needs, you can use our handy filters on the comparison table above to narrow down your choices to your preference.
