This information applies to nbn Satellite services provided by iiNet before 6 December 2023.
nbn® has created a Fair Use Policy to help protect national service quality on the nbn Satellite network.
Please note that this Fair Use Policy enforcement is implemented at a wholesale level, which means it applies to all the nbn Satellite services nationwide including iiNet and any other retail service provider of nbn Satellite services. iiNet does not have the ability to remove or change any speed restrictions that nbn® applies.
Select one of the links below to jump to a query:
- How could the nbn® Satellite Fair Use Policy affect my usage?
- What happens if the temporary speed restriction is applied?
- What measures has iiNet taken to make things easier for customers?
- So what can I do with my monthly data?
- How do I monitor my data usage?
How could the nbn® Satellite Fair Use Policy affect my usage?
nbn®'s Satellite Fair Use Policy applies the following rules for data usage:
- Individual services may not exceed 150GB of peak period (7AM-1AM) usage over any 4 week rolling period.
- Individual services may not exceed 300GB of off-peak period (1AM-7AM) usage over any 4 week rolling period.
It's important to monitor your usage to avoid getting a temporary speed restriction under the nbn Satellite Fair Use Policy.
What happens if the temporary speed restriction is applied?
- nbn® will restrict the speed of your nbn Satellite service to 256/256kbps and will continue to do so until your usage is compliant with the nbn Satellite Fair Use Policy. iiNet has no ability to remove or change this restriction.
- This is not the same as being shaped by us for using all of your monthly data. Your service may be restricted under the nbn Satellite Fair Use Policy even if you have not used all of your monthly data.
- Severe or continual breaches of the Fair Use Policy may result in the suspension or termination of your service by nbn®.
What measures has iiNet taken to make things easier for customers?
To reduce the risk of customers getting restricted under the nbn Satellite Fair Use Policy, iiNet nbn Satellite plans are designed to give customers "safe" amounts of monthly data at a great-value price.
While other providers may offer plans with larger quotas, you should be wary of these because usage is measured over a rolling 4 week period rather than a calendar month. With faster speeds than older satellite technologies, if your usage is particularly high during the beginning or end of any monthly billing cycle, you may get restricted under the nbn Satellite Fair Use Policy if you do not monitor your usage.
So what can I do with my monthly data?
We've broken down the peak period data (7AM-1AM) in our plans to show one example of how much time you could spend on certain online activities each week.
We've calculated this example based on the typical percentage of broadband data the average household uses on a range of common online activities - you may choose to spend more or less time on different activities, and your actual experience may differ depending on the amount of data required by any one activity such as varying download/upload size and image/video quality.
Online activity | Avg. % monthly data used for activity | Estimated data per hour for activity | Example of usage in a typical week | |||
30GB monthly peak data plan | 45GB monthly peak data plan | 60GB monthly peak data plan | ||||
Web browsing and emails | 10% | 0.09GB/hour | 8.3 hours/week | 12.5 hours/week | 16.66 hours/week | |
Standard High Definition (720p) video streaming (e.g. Netflix on 'Medium' quality setting) |
60% | 1GB/hour | 4.5 hours/week | 6.75 hours/week | 9 hours/week | |
Low Definition (480p) video streaming (e.g. YouTube on 480p quality) |
17% | 0.3GB/hour | 4.25 hours/week | 6.37 hours/week | 8.5 hours/week | |
Social media browsing and messaging (excludes video) | 7% | 0.12GB/hour | 4.37 hours/week | 6.56 hours/week | 8.75 hours/week | |
Video calls (e.g. Skype) | 4% | 0.5GB/hour | 36 minutes/week | 54 minutes/week | 72 minutes/week |
Applications that require a low latency (i.e. small delay in the time to transfer data from source to destination) such as online gaming have not been included in this example because they are not recommended over an nbn Satellite connection. It is unlikely that the latency which is possible to achieve over any satellite connection will provide a satisfactory gaming experience.
How do I monitor my data usage?
The best way to monitor your usage is through Toolbox. If you're not sure how to do this, please see Checking your broadband usage in Toolbox.
There are also many software applications available to help you do monitor your usage (both free and paid) however these software applications typically do not measure the usage of every device connected to your NBN Satellite broadband, such as computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets and other Wi-Fi devices. Toolbox is a more reliable option because it shows all of your usage in once place - you can even see your usage broken down to a daily view.

The article will explain the status lights found on the nbn Connection Box (indoor unit) used for Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) services, which may be useful when troubleshooting nbn FTTP issues.
It will also show you where to find the Connection Box's Serial Number, which may be required to complete your NBN order.
Lifting the cover
nbn FTTP Connection Boxes may have a plastic cover. To open it, gently prise the bottom of the cover away from the two clips holding it in place at the bottom of the unit and then lift the cover upwards.
Once lifted, the Connection Box will be partially covered by casing, but you will still be able to see the status lights and access the ports as shown below.
Location of Serial Number
You'll see a barcode sticker on the right-hand side of the box. The number next to S/N is the Connection Box's Serial Number, as shown below.
Status lights

** If no infrastructure has been previously established at the new address, timeframes are subject to technician availability and installation requirements from our wholesaler. Non-standard installations may attract additional costs from our wholesaler - the technician will be able to quote these costs if applicable.
IMPORTANT: If a previous tenant/owner has left an active phone service at your new address, we may not legally proceed with your relocation until that active service has been cancelled or relocated, or you have supplied us with Proof of Occupancy documents. Learn more.
What should I do with my existing nbn® equipment?
- When you move, you should leave any nbn-branded equipment behind, including any power supply cords or other cabling.
- Once it’s been installed, nbn equipment must remain at that address - it won’t work at your new address.
- We’ll make sure you have everything you need at your new place. If any equipment is missing, we’ll help organise a replacement.
Keeping your phone number
You can keep your phone number in the vast majority of cases, except where:
- It's a landline number attached to a specific telephone exchange and you move to an address that’s serviced by a different telephone exchange
- You move to a different geographical call zone/area code, e.g. interstate.
We'll check if keeping your number is possible when you lodge your relocation.
Moving overseas permanently?
Sadly, we can't provide telecommunications services outside of Australia. Please see this advice on closing your account.
For temporary overseas trips, we can help determine if keeping your account active for the duration of your trip would be more convenient and cost-effective than closing your account and re-opening it upon your return.
A traceroute checks how data packets are sent to a specific address using your internet connection, taking note of each stop along the way. It's a good way to see the latency (delay) between different servers that make up the internet.
If you use PingPlotter, it will run a traceroute and a ping test at the same time.

Traceroute in Windows
- Open the Command Prompt program. You’ll find this by typing “cmd” into your computer’s search bar. It can also be found in Start menu > All Programs > Accessories folder.
- A black box with a flashing cursor will open; this is the Command Prompt. Type “tracert” and then hit the space bar, followed by the address to trace (e.g. "tracert google.com") and then hit the Enter key on your keyboard.
- Wait for the test to run. The trace results will be listed in the Command Prompt.
- During a traceroute, each new server the data goes to is called a hop. By default, a maximum of 30 hops will be traced.
- In a list of traceroute results, these hopes will be numbered, with the last hop always being your destination address (unless the data is unable to reach the destination).
- Three latency times (in milliseconds) will be shown next to each hop. The mean average of these times is considered to be the latency for that server.
- Following the latency times, the server's domain and/or IP address will be shown. Typically you'll be able to search online for a specific IP address to get a better idea of where it is.
- It's not uncommon for certain hops to be traced as "* * * Request timed out", such as hop 3 in the example below. This is because the server is deliberately ignoring the ICMP packets sent by a traceroute program, so there's nothing to worry about.
- To copy-paste results, right-click in the black window and select Mark. A highlighter cursor will show up on the text.
- Use the up/down arrow keys on your keyboard, move the cursor to the beginning of the text you wish to select.
- Hold down the Shift key and use the down/right arrow keys on your keyboard to highlight the entire block of text you wish to copy, then simply press the Enter key. Please note that the usual CTRL+C shortcut will not successfully copy the text; you must use the Enter key while the text is highlighted.
- The text is now copied. Open Word, Notepad or any other text editor or email program and use CTRL+V to paste the copied text.
Traceroute in macOS
- Open Finder and select Applications > Utilities, then open the Terminal app.
- Type “traceroute” and then hit Space on your keyboard.
- Type the address you want to traceroute, then hit Enter on your keyboard.
e.g. "tracert iinet.net.au" - Wait for the test to finish.
- A traceroute will test a maximum of 30 "hops". Each hop is a new server that the data passes through on its way to its destination. The first hop is your modem, and the last hop is the server for the address you've tracerouted.
Don't worry if some hops come up as "* * * Request timed out". Some servers deliberately ignore the data packets used for traceroute tests. - Three latency times (in milliseconds) will be shown before the domain or IP address for each hop. The mean average of these times is considered to be the latency for that server.
For example, 32ms + 50ms + 33ms / 3 = a latency of 38.3 milliseconds.
You can search online for a specific IP address to get a better idea of where it is. - To copy-paste your traceroute results: Click and drag the cursor to select the text you want to copy, then right-click and select Copy, or hit Command ⌘+C on your keyboard.
Open TextEdit or any other text editor or email app and use Command ⌘+V to paste the copied text.
Data moves around the internet through ports. When a port is blocked, data can't move through it. There are certain ports that aren't necessary for everyday internet use, but they are commonly used for network attacks. Blocking these ports helps to protect our users from security threats.
Ports blocked by default
The following ports are blocked by default:
- Port 25 (SMTP) incoming/outgoing - except to iiNet email servers i.e. mail.iinet.net.au
- Port 80 (http) incoming
- Port 135 (netBIOS) incoming
- Port 139 (netBIOS) incoming
- Port 443 (https) incoming
- Port 445 (TCP/UDP) incoming
ULTRA Broadband Cable port blocking
Please note that port blocking for ULTRA Broadband Cable services CANNOT be disabled due to security reasons.
- Port 25 (SMTP) incoming/outgoing - except to iiNet email servers e.g. mail.iinet.net.au
- Port 53 (TCP/UDP) incoming
- Port 135 (netBIOS) incoming
- Port 137 (TCP/UDP) incoming
- Port 139 (netBIOS) incoming
- Port 389 (TCP/UDP) incoming
- Port 445 (TCP/UDP) incoming
- Port 593 (TCP/UDP) incoming
How to disable default port blocking
Some advanced users such as business customers or people running their own servers may need to disable the default port blocking so they can continue their day to day operations.
- Log in to Toolbox.
- Select your broadband service.
- Select Settings, or Manage port blocking.
- Set the Port blocking switch to OFF and then click Change settings to finish. If this button is not present in your Toolbox, changes will be saved automatically.
