      Fairly sure it's vodafone

      • MasterScythe on 07/08/2025 - 14:42

        Correct.

        They're so good currently after the tower share agreement with Optus.
        Literally 4x the coverage in QLD alone.

          100% i was blown away how much cover vodafone has now, in some places there is a signal where i use to get none with telstra i think what they did was put coverage in places telstra struggles with lol.

    • hollykryten on 07/08/2025 - 13:31

      It's on the Vodafone network.

      Felix Mobile is a subsidiary of TPG Telecom which also owns Vodafone.

      Vodafone. I have used them (felix) for 1 month now, mainly for data and at first they were ok, but TOO many times now the internet is slow or non-existent - Sydney CBD down to Maroubra, especially between 8am and 930am, plus random other times.

  • asa79 on 07/08/2025 - 13:03

    • T-man on 07/08/2025 - 13:15

      Telstra used to have an unlimited data plan for $400 / month with no speed cap.

      • hollykryten on 07/08/2025 - 13:33
        +8

        Explains why that plan no longer exists. Who can afford that every month. When you can get an unlimited data Gigabit NBN plan for a fraction of that price. Paying $400 per month for that mobile plan is a joke.

        • T-man on 07/08/2025 - 13:48
          +4

          Sorry, it was $199, not 400. The best part is the 10GB of roaming data and unlimited international calls.

          More details: Telstra Ultimate plan. I believe in the early days it used to include a phone bundled in too (eg, could select an iPhone X) which made the value a bit better. But yeah, since discontinued.

        • frugalferret on 07/08/2025 - 17:53

          Yes, at work we often need to upload 200+gb per day while in the field.

          The admin team mixed up our phone plans a few years ago, and we racked up a $75k bill before they realised.

      Hopefully it isn't.

      Why should the people who don't want huge amounts of data have to subsidise the people who should be using the NBN network and paying NBN prices if that's what they want. The phone network has limited bandwidth available. People who want lots of data shouldn't hog it and slow everyone else down.

        If they detect its not being used in a phone they can disable your service. I am guessing your IMEI has not pinged on their system yet. You got lucky.

        Normally you need to put the sim in a phone & tether it to use it as a home internet replacement.

      • M27 on 07/08/2025 - 17:23

    I could never get over 5-7 mbps during peak times and often 18mbps on off-peak. I wonder if it has improved since then.

    • highwind on 07/08/2025 - 14:30

      I am experiencing pretty much about the same, with lower off-peak speeds, closer to 10-12 mbps

      I just ran speed test and getting 11mbps. I also got a notification this morning they upped the max speed for unlimited plans from 20 to 40mbps.

    • ccir on 07/08/2025 - 17:01

      I used it for 2 months in Perth NOR areas. Abysmal experience. Speeds around 0.5-1.5mbps in evenings, 7-12mbps after midnight and then below 3mbps throughout the day.

      Online support basically takes several hours to connect to human after asking 10 self troubleshooting questions. And unavailable after like 5-6pm.

      I think too many people in my area got it at the same time. It was too good to be true and that sort of speeds I can't live with

  • luizmarin on 07/08/2025 - 13:25

    They also have a data bank with the amount of data you haven't used that month

    If you are from Perth, there are a few blind spots where the reception is awful (West Leederville)

    • illumination on 07/08/2025 - 23:10

        They are confusing the unlimited plan with the $25/month 25GB plan (with unlimited data banking)

        • djoz on 08/08/2025 - 09:33

          Correct. Felix has lower priced plans too.
          25GB at $25 per month
          50GB at $30 per month

          Any unused data for these plans gets carried forward to the next month.

        • luizmarin on 08/08/2025 - 10:12

          no no, it is $25 WITH the data bank… I have over 250Gb on my data bank and I've been using it for the past year

          • nwbort on 08/08/2025 - 15:32

            @luizmarin: Yes, the $25/month 25GB plan (with unlimited data banking)

            @luizmarin: The point is that "unlimited data" with a data bank doesn't make sense haha. And you're commenting on a deal for unlimited data.

            You're not wrong in talking about "unlimited data banking" - it's just that you're referring to a different Felix Mobile product

          I have a cheap wifi router with a USB input that I USB tether the phone to. The router keeps the phone charged, so I just leave the whole set-up alone and reset occasionally.

          • wisdomtooth on 08/08/2025 - 20:08

            @highwind: Same here, on an old cracked screen Xiaomi phone, USB tethered to $40 Mango modem/router daisy chained to a couple of other wifi routers left over from previous internet plans.

        • GordonD on 07/08/2025 - 17:59

          5G phone with SIM in it, USB tethered to a GL.iNet travel router. The USB tether keeps the phone battery topped up.

          That lets me unplug the phone and take it away and the home LAN keeps working, just without an internet connection, meaning I only need to pay for one 5G plan for both home internet access and a phone to take with me.

          I could do it without the GL.iNet travel router and plug an ethernet adapter into the phone, and use an ethernet switch. But then my home LAN would stop working when I unplug the phone, and there's stuff I need to keep working.

          • Baby Noodles on 07/08/2025 - 22:36

            @GordonD: Which GL.iNet do you recommend/use?

              @Baby Noodles: I bought this one for ~$35 a few months ago. Pretty much cheapest one available, but works reasonably well (it doesn't negotiate properly with newer USB chargers, so connect with an old USB-A charger then tether to phone via USB)

    My biggest issue with Felix/Vodafone was that when outages occurred, there was no communication whatsoever. Have been with them twice due to good deals/liking their plans in theory, though left when unexplained outages occurred.

    I get the appeal for someone who uses this as their only internet connection (unlimited data), otherwise I would rather pay $39 per month with Boost for far less data/reliability (not factoring in cheaper annual plans).

      If the IMEI flags as a modem they may disable your service. The best option is to get a phone, put it in that & tether it to a router. I recommend any cheap phone & a Gl-inet router tethered through USB. I have done this with a Flint2 & it is flawless.

      • mikuno on 07/08/2025 - 16:08

          Yeah, that's correct. Those speeds were on Vodafone Prepaid.

      It was upgraded to 40Mbps.

      I'm not on Felix Mobile but on Kogan Mobile on the Vodafone network and i can easily reach over 40Mbps in my area but this is on their 4G network. Perhaps the 5G network is over saturated in your area.

    My Personal Review

    • It works great when it works, and beats every competitor on the pricing
    • If you are a heavy phone/laptop internet user and keep on travelling then it is really really a must because it's a hassle to keep finding free WiFi networks
    • Simply great and the app is also far better than Vodafone or Telstra
    • Never had any call issues as such

    I had used them for a month (in CBD area) and the speeds were ridiculously slow. I'm not sure whether if it was poor reception but it was to the point where it wasn't functional. They do seem to have great customer service though but proceed with caution. I wouldn't consider this as an alternative for NBN.

  • trueblue on 07/08/2025 - 14:54

    • mitt on 07/08/2025 - 16:15
      +1

      Every phone out there I know of will freak out with 10+ devices tethered. Tethering modules are not designed to be a network router.

      Get a Gl.inet router & use that for your network. USB tether it to a phone. I use a Flint 2 like this & it works great. Best part is if I want to sign up to an NBN supplier for a couple months because of a promo I dont need to change anything. Just plug in the NBN to the wan port & switch the WAN source. It can even auto failover if required.

      Any Open WRT router can do it, but the Gl.inet ones are cheap for the quality & run out of the box.

      For your sort of use why not get a cheap NBN plan and a wireless router? Even cheap NBN 25Mbps or 50Mbps plans will be miles more reliable and deliver the speed consistently over congested and potentially unreliable speeds with Felix wireless.

        because idiotic contractors and previous home owner allowed the HFC to be located in the room upstairs far away from everything else downstairs. Don't want to buy a mesh system

      Android restricts the number of tethered devices to 10, Apple iOS to 5. The best way is to USB tether to a router like others here said. It's been working just fine for me for 2 years. Make sure the phone has IPV.6 though, Felix switched from IPV.4 a few months ago. I use an old Moto G9 plus.
