The included router on the 24 month contract is the Netcomm NF17ACV (http://www.netcommwireless.com/product/enhanced-vdsladsl-wir…)
The included router on the 12 month contract is the Netcomm NF10WV (http://www.netcommwireless.com/product/vdsl-adsl-n300-wifi-g…)
There is no included router on the month to month option.

Compared to many other NBN deals out there these guys are very well priced :D

Also - you can use your own equipment but it needs to support IPoE (static IP) on VLAN ID 100.

        The CIS of my plan doesn't state that I need to provide notice of Early Termination. I'm not on a contract right now, it's month-to-month. But I want to use most of the cycle since I already paid for it.

        • Tuba on 05/07/2017 - 16:08

          Ive been month to month with the same ISP for nearly 10 years but they required 30 days, not all do Im told.

        • Dunky on 05/07/2017 - 16:13

          @Tuba: Yeah, I just contacted my current provider, and they told me I could cancel anytime.

  • Tuba on 05/07/2017 - 15:49

    Long shot, if NBN goes live in your area in September, is there a way people can take advantage of this offer. Not for me, for my inlaws who go live in September.

    Hi Jeremy,

    Can I port my number from a virtual host? we have a local number ie. 03 9399 0000 diverted to a mobile (costly)
    Can I port this to your service? and forward calls to a mobile if we don't answer?

  • XVX on 05/07/2017 - 15:57

    I am almost tempted to change from TPG to one of these plans just for the router. The router TPG gave me with my current NBN plan only has a 2.4GHz connection for wifi, so the 100/40 benefits aren't even there with wifi devices. What is the process like for swapping NBN providers? I am currently not on a contract either.

    • Xetrok on 05/07/2017 - 16:04

      If you're FTTP you can activate a new service on another port, then cancel the previous service (seamless cutover).
      It just depends on how much time your previous provider requires.

      For FTTN you may have a short downtime (1-4 hours as quoted by Jeremy earlier in the thread).
      Also taking into account termination lead time notices from your previous provider.

  • fishbomb on 05/07/2017 - 16:12

    I am currently using the FTTB service from TPG, is the modem Huawei HG630 they provide work with the FTTN service when I change to BuzzTelco or do I need a different modem?
    and if I join the 24 month plan, will it cost any admin fee if I move home?

    You know what, i used to like these deals. But the last 3 i had from lesser known telco's with plans that were too good to be true, were just that.

    Exetel, Myrepublic and more, i lasted 1 month before i had to get onto the TIO and force them to terminate my contract without any payout fees. they were absolutely shocking, yes they worked well right at the start, then went to shit real quick.

    beware guys

  • f1j1 on 05/07/2017 - 16:33

    Hi Jeremy,
    I signed up (moving from IINET's month to month - FTTP). Is there any way I can specify which UNID port to use? Didn't have an option when signing up.
    Cheers.

    • ShortyX on 05/07/2017 - 16:37

      It normally automatically goes to the next available port.

    • dryandra on 05/07/2017 - 16:49

      I asked the same question, live chat and was told to let them know in the additional notes section when signing up, which I did.

      It will default to the next available port as Stix mentioned :)

  • seungigi on 05/07/2017 - 16:35

    Decided to join on an old OzBargain deal and didn't hear anything from them after signing up and found out that it would take around 3 weeks to transfer over my number. Read that they were having speed issues at the time also, so decided to cancel my order and stick with my current provider. Have spoken to Jeremy, Mostyn and Andrew and emailed their billing department and all have promised me a refund but haven't delivered and it's been a month now. Just today I've also been invoiced $49 for a service that I never got. Looks like off to the ombudsman I go, so be careful.

  • TheMuppet on 05/07/2017 - 16:59

    How does this free Netcomm modem compare to my Billion Bipac 7800N? Worth going to a lock-in contract or just get month-to-month and use my existing router?

    • Xetrok on 05/07/2017 - 17:35

      The Billion doesn't seem to have inbuilt VOIP or 5Ghz wifi?
      An upgrade might be nice ;)

      • TheMuppet on 06/07/2017 - 09:03

        Would I get the Netcomm NF17ACV on a 12 month contract as well? I only see the little brother version for 12 month…

        • Xetrok on 06/07/2017 - 09:07

          Updated OP to clarify, it's the little brother version on the 12 month contract.

  • lang_tu_syd on 05/07/2017 - 17:00

    @BuzzTelco:

    NBN will be available in my area in mid August with HFC. I'm currently with TPG ADLS2+ and out of contract. Can I back date the deal till mid August? Happy to go on a 2 years contract.

    Also, how long usually will the downtime be? I want to time it correctly so there will be no internet disruption at home.

    Thanks.

    • mademan43567 on 06/07/2017 - 12:30

      I did the same and joined Buzz from the previous offer a few weeks before NBN went live in my area, going from TPG ADSL2+ out of contract to HFC NBN. It's a separate connection so cancelling the TPG connection was separate to Buzz. Basically just needed to swap modems over to the HFC one and was ready to go with no real downtime at all.

      • lang_tu_syd on 06/07/2017 - 14:16

        Did Buzz contract start from the date you applied or the date that connection went live?

        Also, there is 30 days written notice required to cancel TPG. Did you time it efficiently so you don't have to pay for both?

        • mademan43567 on 11/07/2017 - 18:34
          +1

          They said it would be from when it goes live. Its been more than a month since I signed up and I haven't been billed for a 2nd month yet. No, I didn't time TPG for 30 days notice. Was keen to get the connection all working first, and that took longer than expected because my router didn't support VLAN tagging…

  • beerbudget on 05/07/2017 - 17:01

    Anyone give me an idea if this router is the best option for $150 up front? Will need to use for my phone line too.

    Is there a way to get out of my Belong yearly contract?

    • Xetrok on 05/07/2017 - 17:29

      Well from the CIS of the current Belong 12 month plan;

      If you’re on a 12 month fixed term plan and you cancel after
      activation but before the term has ended, you’ll be charged an Early
      Termination Charge (ETC). The maximum ETC for your service is
      $240 and decreases by $20 each billing month for a 12 month fixed
      term plan. If you incur an nbn Connection Charge, any outstanding
      monthly repayments for that charge will be added to your service
      ETCs.
      Any ETC will be deducted from you credit card or PayPal account on
      the date you cancel your service or shortly thereafter

  • frewer on 05/07/2017 - 17:56

    What would be the speed for a 100/40 plan, FTTN? I'm 1.2k away from the node ( NBN 'specialist' told me ). Im currently with Dodo, recently upgrade to 100/40 and very disappointing about the 'new' speed which is slower than 50/20 ! If this is good I will jump ship !

    • Xetrok on 05/07/2017 - 18:13

      FTTN speed drops the further you are away from the node. Changing providers wont change your distance or max line speed.
      1.2k is quite some distance from the node.

      https://nbnmyths.files.wordpress.com/2011/06/fttn-speed-grap…

      FTTN = VDSL2

      • frewer on 05/07/2017 - 18:42

        You guys working late :D but that doesnt explain the slower speed though … Anyway the router will be return at the end of the contract or I keep it ? It's still cheaper than Dodo though.

    Another +1 for Buzz.
    Initially was very disappointed with the customer service (lack there of) as it was taking longer to be connected than promised and tickets weren't being replied to. Mostyn who is the operations manager personally contacted me and turned things around. I'm very impressed that a company cares enough that the main man takes on feedback seriously and ensures the situation is satisfactorily resolved. After a call from Mostyn an email from Jeremy arrived within minutes with my log in details.
    Overall very impressed and believe that this is a company that does in fact care about it's customers and is in it for the long haul.
    My speed tests may not be of huge use to potential customers as I'm running two 100/40 NBN connections (the other ISP is Infinity which has also been flawless) through a load balancing router for redundancy but here goes:

    Their peak traffic on 100/40 still not what I paid for, but at least I still get 20-30 down, compared to 3-5 down with Optus. Considering their pricing, guess I could live with that..

    • cd ski au on 05/07/2017 - 19:47

      Call Buzz and speak to one of the guys there. Also do speed tests and screen shot the results. They'll move your to a static IP and that should improve your connection. Unless you are far from the node etc

      • Lancerx on 05/07/2017 - 21:27

    Definitely recommend this company. By the far the best customer service I have ever received from a Telco. Australian support, always happy to help and very prompt in answering questions(I only use online chat really). I signed up on Monday at 2.43pm, service was active at 8.56pm on Tuesday. Super impressed by the speed also, constantly hitting 85Mbps+/30Mbps. Over 90Mbps most of the time.

    I changed from Telstra $90 per month for 25/5 and 500GB downloads, to Buzz Telco 100/40 Unlimited for $49 for the 6 months, couldn't be happier. As I have FTTP, they were able to activate it on UNI D2 so there was also no down time.

    Might watch it for a couple more days before I disconnect Telstra, but love what I am seeing so far.

    Hi Jeremy/Xetrok,

    I was recently moved onto TPG FTTN as they promised there would be no interruptions and waived any connection fees switching from ADSL 2+ to FTTN. Naturally, there was a couple of days downtime leading up to the cutover. Anyways, I'm looking to change providers and BT looks like it fits the bill.

    My question is, I have an Asus AC-RT68U which im looking to bridge with the Huawei HG659 that TPG provided. Will this work on your network?

    If i was to apply today, realistically how long will take it to switch over? And do I need to notify TPG whatsoever?

    Cheers

    • Xetrok on 06/07/2017 - 09:11

      I had the HG659 with dodo and it works fine with BuzzTelco.
      Jeremy said there's a short downtime with FTTN churns (1-4 hours) but jsut remember TPG needs 30 days notice on termination.

      • No Child Support on 06/07/2017 - 09:22

        So do I make contact with TPG to cancel first then apply for buzztelco? Back in adsl days, when you churn to other providers, they take care of cancellation with other providers

          1. CANCELLING AN NBN ACCESS SERVICE
            12.1. You may terminate the NBN service by giving us at least 30 days written notice. You must pay for charges for the service up to the end of the notice period.
            12.2. If you cancel your NBN service before the end of your Minimum Contract Period, you will be required to pay the early termination charges.

          Place your BuzzTelco order and future date the connection ;)

      Do not cancel your old phone service until you are fully running or you risk losing the phone number.

    Service went live yesterday with Buzz Telco, $49 for 6 months. Very surprised with speeds during peak and off peak and latency is great.

    Feel for Mostyn as he had to deal with me for the day :) as there we a couple of issues I couldn't work out, but overall the service is fantastic.

    Real positives here are it is a local business with local support and so far things are great with connectivity. Hope this continues :-)

      How long between sign up and activation? What NBN tech are you on? FTTP?

      • Dogma on 06/07/2017 - 13:16

        Approx 2 weeks after sign up. On FTTN sadly however, getting around 70Mbps down and 30Mbps down which is satisfactory.

        I hit them up on chat for the date which they provided straight away.

        • edshays on 06/07/2017 - 13:38

          Thanks. I am on FTTP so hopefully should be soon. they said up to 48hrs. I have just cancelled Skymesh which ends on the 12th, so just making sure there is no down time for me.

    Interested in applying but 24month contract is too long but i want the NF17ACV.
    @Jeremy, Can I get the NF17ACV modem on the 12month contract and just pay the difference in price?

    • Buff on 06/07/2017 - 12:57

      I agree ACV on a 12 month plan count me in.

        Same

        • Buff on 06/07/2017 - 20:40

          They won't do it, let's move on.

      • Buff on 06/07/2017 - 20:41

        I tried no luck.

  • Bargaphile on 06/07/2017 - 12:30

    Im on skymesh with no contract atm, do I have to tell them to cancel me or is automatic if I sign up? Is there a setup fee on the 12m contract? Also what is the fee for leaving early? Thanks

    • Xetrok on 06/07/2017 - 12:31

      Edit: Chat to BuzzTelco via email or live chat. There's no setup fee but ETC would probably apply if you leave the contract early.
      Best if you cancel your service manually after being connected.

    Got connected with Buzz on 25/5 plan and have had no issues so far. Speeds fairly consistently hover around 24/4.5.

    Only negatives are that proactive communication is fairly lacking, albeit made up for by fantastic live support over the phone and livechat. Other thing to note is your hardware needs to be able to VLAN tag 100. That wasn't mentioned in my initial set up instructions but doesn't work without it.

    • Bargaphile on 06/07/2017 - 12:39

      Damn I have a DIR-850L I dont think it supports VLAN tag :( Thanks for the info mate

      edit:

      Nice timing , thanks dlink :)

    I joined Buzz Telco on their last deal, I opted to provide my own modem which is a Netcomm N600 dual band, Got it of Gumtree for $50 and does the job.
    First time ever I've set up a modem, They sent me details on connecting with them on a Static IP….Perfect!
    Im reaching speeds averaging 90+ download and 30+ upload.
    Been chatting/logged ticket about phone connection, my fault as I didn't tell them to port it over so they are working on it now and provided ETA.
    They have been great throughout the whole process, even keeping us updated with the hiccup that happened previously.

    As it stands moving from Telstra to Buzz Telco was the way to go and 1/3rd the price.

    Jeremy and Mostyn, A+ for customer service

    Cheers Guys.

    would a Netgear d7000 work for FTTN with BuzzTelco?
