      Add your address and add a WiFi router to get the router for $499, personally I just called them up and ordered one since I already have a service

      • No such option exists to add an eero Max 7 with a service plan. Only eero 6+ devices are available to add-on. What other terms & conditions must be met to buy this router?

        • +1

          If I select the nbn 1000/50 option I can choose to add it after choosing the plan online, I have a 1000/50 service and called them to place an order

          Edit: on double checking the option to add the eero max 7 only appears for 250 and 1000 plans

          • @Kazusa: I selected a new nbn 1000/50 plan. The option to add an eero Max 7 is not present.

            • @alvian: Okay I just tried and I do see the option to add, it could be location specific

              • @nobby148:

                location specific

                That is the answer. The eero Max 7 option is only shown to select locations. I tried 7 different locations before the option was presented.

            • @alvian: Theres the option to choose which modem , eero 6+, eero 7, etc

        Online orders are for new customers only. Existing customers need to call them to order.

    • Ewww, I understand its a thing to help diagnose issues most likely, but it should be opt in not opt out.

      Please elaborate "eero/Amazon got a workflow to do that"?

    • How is this done? I have a eero from superloop, wondering how I get them off when I switch.

  • Called. They said deal/modem not available until 26th June.

    I'll stay the F away from Southern Phone. Horrible service despite being on FTTP. I was subscribed for 100/20 and never even reached 60 during off peak hours. Additionally they had some unplanned outages which caused the speed to degrade to less than 10mbps at times over the entire freaking weekend and their Call-Center doesn't work on weekends..

  • is this NBN service any good? are they just a reseller for one of the bigger ones? I'm about to move from Superloop as the speeds I get don't seem to be great

  • The option to the add the Amazon Eero Max 7 Mesh Wi-Fi Router works for me even on the $45 a month plan

    Please don't get an Eero Max 7. It's crap.

      eero Max 7 is suitable for your average user on Gigabit or the soon to be released 2Gbps.

      Look elsewhere if you want more advanced networking settings.

      • -3

        I'm on 1Gbps. Wi-Fi is 25Mbps. I cannot turn off 2.4GHz or separate the Wi-Fi bands. The router can't do it and it's missing very basic features.

        • Something wrong there. eero Max 7 can do about 930Mbps with 6GHz Wi-Fi.

          Are you going to change to something else? Ubiquiti, Asus?

          • -2

            @Twix: My computers and Switch 2 want to focus on 2.4GHz only. Could be a fault of the devices, but I should think the eero would have a setting to disable or separate them so I can test.

            I will change to something one day but I paid a pretty penny for this so I intend to keep it for a while. Ethernet at least seems reliable and would be handy for 2Gbps FTTP but my laptop only has a 1Gbps NIC.

            • +2

              @Guybrush57: There are some reports of Switch 2 Wi-Fi problems so that might be unrelated.

              Go into your computer Wi-Fi settings and turn off 2.4GHz. Turning on client steering may help some devices use 5GHz more often but yeah there's no way to separate them.

      Eero 7 works great I've had one for 6 months or so without issue, yes there are limitations but the smallest amount of research before purchase would inform you of these.

    Southern Phone are an awful provider. Every month something went wrong with my FTTP service. Every. Month. I was disconnected for 10 days a month with them trying to solve it. I have never had an issue with any other provider.

    Seems like a great deal, but when I enter my address the 1000/50 plan disappears — even though I’m already on that exact plan with Superloop. Bit frustrating!

    • I went through chat

  • +1

    Been with southern phone now for just under a year. No complaints at all.

  • Two minds on this, they have such consistently terrible reviews but cheap nbn

  • +2

    I have ordered this but they have cancelled. Saying it’s a glitch on them website. They have quietly removed it from my order I would not have know it if I did not call them.
    Cancelled the application for their service as well. Outright lying to customers to sign you up.

    • Wow, what a bunch of crooks!

  • Anyone get this big boy. How is it? I have netgear rbk852 thinking of upgrading, mainly to boost range.

    Stay away from this clown. Below are reasons.

    • Their website and port always experiencing technical issue resulting user can't login, can see bill, can't manage payment
    • They don't provide assit to customer to setup payment (e.g. direct debit) properly when initially setup account for new connection
    • They send you invoice and leave you with broken website unable for you to setup direct debit before the bill due date
    • They charge you $10 for late payment even they are at fault of not being able to setup payment properly before bill due date
    • Their Internet connection drop out and slow speed is common can't expect they will give you any answer
