For regional & outer-metro addresses

nbn® Fixed Wireless

Outside the fibre footprint? nbn® Fixed Wireless beams a broadband signal from a tower to an outdoor antenna at your premises — a solid option for regional and outer-metro homes.

nbn® Fixed Wireless uses a small outdoor antenna fixed to your roof or eave, pointed at a nearby nbn® tower, to deliver broadband without a cable running all the way to your home. It's built specifically for the roughly 6% of Australian premises — mostly regional towns and outer-metro fringe areas — that sit outside the fibre and Fixed Line footprint.

Top Answers

How is Fixed Wireless different from Fibre or Fixed Line nbn®?
Fixed Wireless delivers your connection over the air from a tower rather than through an underground or overhead cable, so it's used in areas where running a cable isn't practical — mostly regional and outer-metro locations.
What affects my Fixed Wireless speed?
Distance from the tower, the number of other premises sharing that tower's capacity, and obstructions like trees or hills between your antenna and the tower. We'll check what's realistically achievable at your specific address.
Is Fixed Wireless available at my address?
Only in areas nbn® co has designated as Fixed Wireless — mostly outside metro fibre footprints. Use our address checker to confirm what's available at your specific address.
What's the minimum term?
Fixed Wireless plans run on a 24-month minimum term, reflecting the cost of the outdoor antenna installation — see the Critical Information Summary for full early termination details.
