Choose a 5G Internet plan that works for you

What you get with a 5G Home or Business Internet plan

Every 5G plan should be enough for most everyday activities like connecting on social media and web browsing, though businesses or households with heavier usage like constant video streaming or transferring large files may need more.  While all three plans include 1000GB of data per month, the speeds and what happens once you exceed that data allowance vary between plans - so it's worth thinking about how many people are on your connection and how much speed your team or household relies on day to day.

All 5G Home and Business plans include:  

• 1000GB of data per month
• Easy self-setup with no tech visit needed
• The latest Telstra Smart Modem included for use with Wi-Fi 7 and WPA3 security. If you cancel or change to a different tech type, within 24 months, simply return your modem or pay a $200 non-return fee.
• The My Telstra app, including a modem location tool to help you find the best spot for the signal

5G Home and Business Internet plans do not include a phone line and do not support devices that rely on this like lifts, medical alerts or security alarms. 

How fast is 5G Internet?

We monitor and update our speeds regularly. For the latest info, visit 5G Internet plans.

Your internet speed is affected by things like the distance between your modem and the nearest 5G mobile tower, how many users are online, weather and your setup. To help optimise your setup, try placing your modem up high on a shelf, table or other surface off the floor and keep it away from large appliances or enclosed spaces.

Follow our guide for more easy tips, use the modem placement guide in the My Telstra app to help find the strongest signal in your building or read our online guide.
