Works better in more places
The launch of 4G means you can get typical download speeds of 2Mbps up to an incredible 40Mbps and typical upload speeds of 1Mbps upto 10Mbps in selected areas. The data speeds are significantly above that of any 3G network.
Outside 4G coverage areas, you can enjoy super fast 3G speeds ranging from 1.1Mbps-20Mbps which are available in all capital CBDs and much of the associated metropolitan areas and many regional and other locations. Outside of these areas BigPond® 4G devices transition to Telstra’s fast 3G network that reaches 99 per cent of the population.
Better plans to meet your needs
All plans are designed to be simple and flexible. Our plans come with no additional usage charges, just in case you go over your monthly usage allowance – your speed is simply slowed for the remainder of the month. Plus you can move to a higher or lower plan once each month or billing period, free of charge.
Things you need to know
4G speeds are available in all capital CBDs (meaning within 5km from the GPO), associated airports and selected regional areas (within 3km of the regional town centre). Speeds vary due to factors such as location, distance from the base station, local conditions, user numbers, hardware and software configuration and download source/upload destination. Outside these areas 4G capable devices will automatically switch over to Telstra’s High Speed Packet Access or HSPA 3G enabled network and speeds will be less. Check coveage areas
