Take off into cyberspace at rocket speed with a faster connection!

Sponsored by TPG. Until July 24 2024, TPG's high-speed nbn plans are all backed by the TPG Price Beat Guarantee. TPG will beat any high-speed nbn price from any eligible provider over the first 12 months of your plan!* To find out more, make sure you visit the TPG website. T&Cs apply.

Whether you're catching up on the latest streaming shows, working from home, or just want to unwind with some console time, you've got to have a stable – and fast – nbn connection.

👋 Hey there! We've partnered with TPG for this article, so we'll be using TPG's internet plans as examples throughout. However, you should always do your own research and find a plan that suits your particular needs.

1. Lock in better pricing

The cost of living has been on the rise – and nbn prices haven't been immune.

So if you're going to upgrade your connection speed…well, it makes sense to look for a less expensive option while you're making the switch too.

Currently, TPG is offering a Price Beat Guarantee on nbn plans, including the NBN100, NBN Superfast & NBN Ultrafast offers.

Until July 24, TPG will beat any high-speed nbn price from eligible providers for the first 12 months of your plan.

By looking for a deal like this, you can speed up your home connection while also saving some cash.

2. Help your kids to study harder

We're past the halfway mark for the year. That means the end-of-year assessments and exams will be landing ASAP!

Since modern classrooms rely heavily on modern tech, you want to make sure your kids can do their best learning from home, too.

By investing in faster internet from a provider like TPG, you can help them get set up for academic success in the second half of the year.

(And it also means the kids won't have an excuse for not doing their homework!)

3. Level up your WFH setup

If you work from home, you want to make sure that things don't slow to a chug while you're downloading key files or you're in the middle of an important video call.

So if you're rethinking your current internet connection (and your home office costs), it might be time to consider an upgrade.

Offers like TPG's current Price Beat Guarantee can help bring down the expenses while still getting you the connectivity you need to work at your best.

4. Cut out the gaming lag

Missing easy shots? Getting slowdown and sloppy framerates? Slow connections when you're downloading the latest patches?

It may be a poor connection – the scourge of gamers all over the globe!

Now if your KTD ratio doesn't improve post-upgrade…well, you may need to put in a bit more practice time.

But upgrading to a faster connection with a provider like TPG can help improve issues with lag and ping. It can also drastically cut the time required to download updates or DLC.

So by starting with fast internet speed, you're setting yourself up for gaming success.

5. Catch up on the latest TV and movies with streaming

The second half of 2024 is set to be a huuuuuge one for streaming services in Australia. Prestige series like Rings of Power, The Penguin, Dune: Prophecy and Squid Game are all set to debut or drop new seasons.

But you don't want to sit down to enjoy a new episode and have it buffer to a halt in the middle of an episode! Not only will you miss it in the moment, but you could also miss all the water cooler discussions about it the next day.

Fortunately, this is where speedier nbn connectivity can help.

Now, it's important to note this isn't just a pure speed issue. It's also about bandwidth.

These days, most households have multiple devices plugged into the modem or logged into the wi-fi. That puts strain on the home internet connection (the same thing goes for gaming devices!).

Upping your speed when you take advantage of an offer like TPG's Price Beat Guarantee can up your speed significantly. In turn, this can also boost your bandwidth in the process.

So you won't need to worry about missing a key cliffhanger or key bits of character development any more.
