2025-07-02 02:02 pm
We've got some juicy news to share! Big changes are coming to the internet in Australia — from this September, eligible FTTP and HFC customers can enjoy higher speeds for a better-connected life.
Your speed tiers are getting even speedier
At Tangerine, we’re serving up the future of connectivity with refreshingly simple internet. Starting this September, nbn® is cranking up the speed dial on their high-tier plans. It is going to be fast — and we mean seriously fast.
For customers with a HFC or FTTP high speed plan, here’s what to expect:
- Speedy 100/20 Mbps → 500/50 Mbps^
- Super Speedy 250/25 Mbps → 750/50 Mbps^
- Ultra Speedy 1000/50 Mbps → 1000/100 Mbps^
And that’s just the beginning. NBN Co is also launching brand-new multi-Gigabit plans — designed for homes where speed isn’t a luxury, but a necessity. These upgrades mean smoother streaming, faster downloads, and better performance across your devices. That’s a whole lot of internet goodness.
How to upgrade
If you’re already on a Tangerine Speedy Plus, Super Speedy, or Ultra Speedy nbn® plan, and your home is connected via FTTP (Fibre to the Premises) or HFC (Hybrid Fibre Coaxial), then good news: you don’t need to lift a finger. From September, we’ll automatically upgrade your plan to faster speeds. Yep, it’s that simple.
Not on one of those plans or tech types? No worries. If your home uses a different connection (like Fibre to the Curb or Fibre to the Node), or if you are on a different plan, you may be able to make the switch. Upgrading your plan and technology now means you’ll be ready to enjoy high-speed internet in September.

If you're currently on an eligible FTTN or FTTC connection, now is the perfect time to consider an upgrade. nbn® will upgrade your technology from FTTC/N to FTTP for free (standard installation only). To be eligible for this upgrade, you must sign up to a Speedy, Super Speedy, or Ultra Speedy plan and be within an area selected by NBN Co for a FTTP upgrade.

How to get the most out of your upgraded data plan
Let’s be real — even with lightning-fast speeds, your internet experience can still be influenced by things like your modem, your home layout, and how many devices are online at once. But don’t worry — that’s where we come in.
From now through to September, we’ll be sharing helpful tips, updates, and how-tos to make sure you’re getting the absolute most out of your upgraded setup. Keep an eye on your inbox, our socials, and the blog — and if you ever need a hand, our friendly Customer Service Team is just a click away.
