The Best Broadband Internet Providers & Plans in Sydney

The Cheapest Internet in Sydney

One of the minor down sides to the NBN is that the national network, which has cost billions to build out, has to recoup its costs, meaning the prices the NBN charges providers for access tend to keep monthly prices high. But if you’re on a tight budget, don’t worry – there’s an affordable option.

Southern Phone has been delivering phone and internet services across Australia for many years, and has built up a great reputation with the community for its quality and customer service. Their Unlimited Broadband Standard plan gives you a NBN 25 connection – still fast enough for 4K video streaming if you want – with unlimited data and no lock-in contract for only $65/month.

Another great option is Telstra with revamped broadband plans, catering to your need of flexibility and affordability. Plans now only start at $75/month with no lock-in contract. iPrimus is also a contender with an NBN50 unlimited plan for only $75/month with the option to add Fetch TV.

Unlimited Broadband in Sydney

Not all that long ago, trying to get a quality unlimited broadband plan was no easy task – some of the fastest and best-run networks preferred to put monthly data limits on most users and used it as a means of setting the price. These days, though, unlimited data is more or less the norm. If you want to save a few dollars, you can go for a data-limited plan with most providers, but we don’t think it’s worth the tiny saving unless you’re 100% sure you simply won’t be using much data.

One provider that makes the question much more simple is MyRepublic, a relatively new company in Australia but well known overseas. Every single one of their plans comes with unlimited data, with prices starting at $59/month for NBN 25 speed and the sweet spot being $69 for NBN 50. MyRepublic also is the only broadband provider in Sydney to offer plans targeted specifically at gamers, with a network that’s custom-tweaked to make sure no matter what game you’re playing, you get the best possible experience.
