Powering Australia’s Future with Faster and Smarter Internet
Published August 25, 2026
The internet in Australia is in store for a massive upgrade and at Utility Market, we will be helping you get the best of it.
Massive upgrades coming in September
Starting from September, NBN will roll out some major upgrades to their premium internet packages, introducing us to some blazing fast speeds we have always dreamed about. And they are:
Fast 100/20 Mbps → 500/50 Mbps
Superfast 250/25 Mbps → 750/50 Mbps
Ultrafast 1000 Mbps → 1000/50-100 Mbps
These upgrades will allow us to get more out of our online activities, such as smoother streaming, faster downloads, and smooth performance regardless of whether we use the internet for work, study, gaming or relaxing.
NBN will introduce new multi-gigabit plans which are meant for those whose lives depend on internet speed. This will be an incredible upgrade for content creators, streamers and remote workers with up to 2 Gbps upload speeds.
What are the ways to upgrade?
In case, you are having an extremely fast or ultrafast NBN plan and your home is being connected through the FTTP (fibre to the premises) or HFC (hybrid fibre coaxial). In that case, the great thing is starting from September, your plan is going to be automatically upgraded to even faster speeds. No need to worry about a thing. You just need to relax and watch the upgrade.
So, what if you lack all of the plans or connection types mentioned above? Don’t worry. In case you have got your home in different technology such as fibre to the curb or fibre to the node, you could switch to another one. By doing so, you will get prepared to use even more advanced Internet in September.

How can you improve the connection speed?
If you have got an ultrafast or an extremely fast NBN plan and the house is connected via FTTP (fibre to the premises) or HFC (hybrid fibre coaxial), there is a good thing – starting from September, your plan is going to be automatically upgraded to even faster speed. It means that there is nothing you should care about.
But, if you don’t have any of the plans and connection type mentioned above, you shouldn’t be afraid of anything. If your home is in other technology like fibre to the curb or fibre to the node, you may change it to another one and be ready to enjoy high-speed Internet in September.
As for people who are currently using an eligible FTTN or FTTC connection, now would be the best time for them to consider their upgrades. Have a reliable and faster internet connection by getting your FTTN/FTTC connection upgraded to an FTTP fibre install. Sign up for Speedy, Super Speedy, or Ultra Speedy internet plans to be qualified for this upgrade.
Choosing the right internet plans isn’t simply based on Mbps but rather how you, as a family unit, live, learn, work and play online. Of course, your experience may still be affected by your modem, household setup, and how many devices connect simultaneously. This is where Utility Market comes in.
Whether it be easy streaming and video calls, smarter homes and work days, these are the enhancements that are meant to enhance your internet experience. More than just an improvement in technology, it’s a new, faster foundation for your internet experience.
Your future is closer than you think
NBN speed tier is the maximum speed of the particular plan available to you in the off-peak evening time frame. NBN speed does not necessarily have to match the download/upload speed you will be getting as there are many different elements that affect it. You will require a compatible modem in order to use the faster speed tier.
At Utility Market, we are here for everything. From choosing the right plan to optimizing all of its benefits. From handy tricks to expert advice, we are dedicated to making sure that your internet journey is a smooth one.
