As some of yas would know I've got wireless nbn connected at home. It goes 25 down and 5 up. I noticed that optus charges the same amount but offers 50/20 on wireless nbn. Apart from paying out my current carrier (iinet) can anyone see why or why not to just swap tf over tomorrow? It seems like a no brainer from here.

But yeah, seems pretty straight-forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there more to consider like how much bandwidth the carrier buys from nbn and then supplies per customer? I haven't looked into that yet and I don't know if it'd be public information if it even is a thing. Edited 01/05/18 02:26 PM by Puffwagon Haha effn 'f' in off.
