Hi,
I pay $110 a month for a superloop 1gbit FTTH connection. I would like to suspend this as it will be a waste as I'm going away for a month.
What is the best option to use for a month so my wifi security cameras are still active?
Thanks

Your current plan
Superloop has a 30 day cancellation policy, just fyi. So make sure you do it plenty of time in advance
Yes, 100% - OP be careful with this, they are brutal.
Go for the lower speed plan with the same isp
What is the best option
Lower your speed.

LOL All that hassle to save what? $50!
$50 goes a looong way in SEA
OP's internet however is in Albo's Australia
Just lower your plan speed as others have suggested, no point going through the hassle of canceling your internet just for one month, if it was 6 months or 12 months or something that would be another story.
A 25Mbps plan would be fine just for the security cameras to work.
thanks guys
launtel has 1/1 ($1.65/day) and 4/4 ($2.30/day) options, you could always switch to them for the seven day trial a week before you're go away to ensure that the bandwidth is sufficient (you can change up and down speeds at will. if 1/1 or 4/4 don't suit you can go to 100/20 ($3.10/day)). As long as you order 250mbit or slower it can coexist with a superloop 1gbit connection. If you don't have a dual WAN router, you just physically plug/move your WAN port on the router to the second (launtel) connection when you want to use it.

They also have a standby option for 50c/day but that's <100kb/s speed so only good for alerts from your camera, won't be able to view any video.
