Telstra delivers consistent ACCC-verified peak speeds but with a price premium that is largest at NBN 25. NBN 250 was uplifted to a free NBN 750 upgrade for eligible FTTP/HFC connections from September 2025, so NBN 250 now mainly applies to FTTN/FTTC addresses not eligible for that upgrade. Also offers 5G Home Internet from $70/month in covered areas. Plans as at October 2026.
Our take on Telstra
Telstra delivers consistent speeds (99.5% of advertised in the ACCC's final Measuring Broadband Australia report, Report 33, June 2026) and has the broadest ecosystem: mobile bundling, Telstra Air wifi hotspots, and the strongest 5G home internet alternative where available. The trade-off is price. Telstra is about $9 to $16 per month more than budget providers at NBN 25 ($89 against TPG's $79.99 or Tangerine's $72.90) and about $10 more at NBN 50 ($99 against $89 to $89.99), roughly $110 to $190 a year. The gap narrows at NBN 100, where Telstra's $99 is only $4 above TPG and level with Aussie Broadband. If you value rock-solid speeds, the Telstra ecosystem, and the comfort of the biggest name in Australian telco, the premium is justifiable. If you just want reliable internet at the lowest price, Aussie Broadband or Superloop deliver near-identical speeds for $4 to $11 less at NBN 25 and 50.
