  9. Choose your desired broadband plan and contract options etc. then hit Sign up now to submit your relocation order. We'll keep you updated on the progress of your order via email and SMS.

Your modem must meet certain technical requirements to deliver optimal performance on our nbn Superfast & Ultrafast plans. If you choose to bring your own modem (BYO modem) instead of getting a modem supplied by us, this information will help you ensure that your third-party modem is suitable for your nbn plan.

Most modems in use today are technically capable of supporting speeds of approximately:

  • Up to 300Mbps over WiFi
  • Up to 600Mbps over Ethernet

Of course, actual speeds achieved will vary due to a number of factors such as technology type, modem capability, plan choice and internet traffic demand.

Faster speeds may be achieved if you choose to purchase a newer, high-end modem. Mesh networking solutions, where several devices broadcast WiFi throughout a premises, are recommended for nbn Ultrafast services in particular.

In short, your modem must support or feature:

  • PPPoE connection types
  • Gigabit Ethernet ports
  • AC WiFi or WiFi 6 (for WiFi connections)

Note: Modems for nbn plans activated before March 2023 must also support VLAN tagging.

Modems that do not support PPPoE cannot connect to our nbn services. If you choose to use an older modem that does not feature Gigabit Ethernet ports or AC WiFi/WiFi 6, your connection may be slower according to the constraints of your older hardware. We recommend using devices connected via Ethernet cable instead of WiFi to get the best possible experience.

Compatible modems

The following modems have been tested by our team. There may be additional models on the market that have not yet been tested by us. If your modem is not listed here, please contact the manufacturer for more information.

Note that all modems listed below (including those marked with a cross) are capable of achieving the Typical Evening Speed of the nbn Superfast and nbn Ultrafast plans.

^While the nbn Ultrafast Plan has a maximum theoretical off-peak download speed of 500Mbps on nbn  HFC and 990Mbps on nbn FTTP, you will typically experience significantly slower speeds than this due to a range of factors, regardless of which modem you use. You should refer to the Typical Evening Speed as a more accurate estimate of likely experience.

To transfer ownership of your account into someone else’s name, please call us on 13 22 58.

Once you agree to the terms and conditions of the transfer, we’ll place a temporary authorisation on the account and the new owner will have 30 days to complete the transfer. If the new owner is with you when you call, you can put them on the phone to complete the transfer.

The new owner will need to provide at least two forms of accepted identification, and their bank account or credit/debit card details. If the new owner already has an existing iiNet account, they’ll need to provide their account number. If the new owner isn’t with iiNet, they’ll need to pass our credit check.

To transfer a number into a company name, the new owner must be an authorised signatory for the company, and they will need to provide the ABN/ACN and their drivers licence number.

 

Invoices when changing account ownership

Our billing system cannot split charges between previous and current account holders. As soon as the new account holder is added to the account, they are responsible for paying the full amount of all subsequent invoices and charges for the account, including charges dated from before the date they took ownership.

Both parties are responsible for settling any amounts they owe each other amongst themselves. iiNet will not mediate in any way; we will only issue the invoice for all charges due to the new account holder.

The potential new account holder will be informed of this risk by our customer service rep while processing the change of ownership. If either party doesn't feel comfortable, the change of ownership will not proceed. You can instead close your account and the other party may apply for a new account of their own.

Please note: If you have customised your BizPhone handset in any way, such as adding contacts to the directory or changing ringtone settings, these will be removed after a factory reset. However, the Global Address Book will not be affected.

What are the available payment methods?

For your convenience, iiNet debits payments automatically from your nominated bank account or credit card. You can update your payment details at any time in Toolbox.


Is iiNet Mobile a prepaid service or a post-paid service?

iiNet Mobile is a prepaid service. Your monthly mobile plan fee is renewed automatically using your nominated payment details.

Excess charges are taken out of your optional prepaid balance, which you can top up at any time in Toolbox. If insufficient funds are in your prepaid balance, excess usage will be unavailable.


What are the initial charges when I sign up with iiNet Mobile?

Your initial charge will be automatically debited using your nominated payment details. This initial charge includes your first monthly plan fee and any prepaid balance you chose to add during signup.


When do I get charged for my monthly mobile plan fee?

iiNet operates on a monthly billing cycle, billed in advance. Your billing cycle will begin when you activate your iiNet SIM, and you will be charged for your next billing cycle 7 days before it begins. For example:

  • 7 January - Mobile plan ordered and first payment made.
  • 9 January - Mobile SIM arrives and is activated. The billing cycle begins.
  • 2 February - Payment for the next billing cycle is taken.
  • 9 February - Next billing cycle begins.

 

What happens if payments fail?

We will contact you if there is any issue with your payment (e.g. insufficient funds, payment details have changed).

If payment is still not resolved when your next billing cycle commences, we will be forced to suspend your mobile service (you will only be able to receive calls). Once your payment has cleared, your mobile service will resume as normal. We recommend credit card payment for the fastest resolution as Direct Debit payments can take up to 3 business days to clear.

Please note: If your service remains unpaid for 30 days, your service will stop working and you will not be able to receive calls.
