There are many technologies used in delivering broadband, including fibre to the node/premises/curb, HFC, satellite and fixed wireless. Usually you don't get a choice for your area. If your premises' technology isn't shown, it's because the ACCC's measuring program doesn't have enough data from volunteers using that technology for us to publish results.

We recommend plans based on performance scores of 93% or more, which means the broadband provider is delivering as close to theoretical speed as possible.

This overall score comprises download score (50%) and upload score (50%). Scores are weighted evenly because uploads have become more important in an increased work-from-home economy.

Based on the wholesale download speed sold by NBN Co to the provider versus the average speed (on-peak and off-peak) experienced by the test device in the program.

This is the maximum wholesale download speed in megabits per second (Mbps) for each tier of plan. While this is the wholesale speed sold by NBN Co to providers, providers are required to advertise the average real-world speed their users might expect to see.
