What is nbn® 1000?
The nbn® 1000 plan is one of the fastest residential nbn® speeds available in Australia, but it’s only accessible over certain connection types. Not every ISP offers nbn® 1000, the good news is that we do! The maximum download speed on these plans is 1000 megabits per second (Mbps), which is equal to one gigabit (Gbps) – hence the nickname ‘gigabit internet’.
With a maximum download speed of 1000 Mbps, this tier also now offers a maximum upload speed of 100 Mbps, delivering double the previous upload capacity and making it ideal for video calls, cloud backups, and households with multiple high-demand users.
If you regularly have more than five users browsing, using VoIP phones, heavy gaming online, streaming 4K or 8K video, downloading large files, running home offices, or doing whatever they do on the internet, this Gigabit internet plan might be a good option for your household.

To get the most from nbn® Ultrafast (1000/100 Mbps) and higher plans, your router must be able to handle gigabit internet. Look for these features:
- Gigabit Ethernet ports (1000 Mbps or faster)
- Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 7 capability for modern devices
- Support for high throughput across multiple devices
If your router is more than five years old, it may struggle to deliver full gigabit speeds. That’s why we recommend the eero 7 mesh router, now available with eligible Swoop plans.
eero 7 supports internet plans up to 2.5 Gbps with two auto-sensing 2.5 GbE ports, plus Wi-Fi 7 wireless speeds up to 1.8 Gbps. It’s future-proof, eliminates Wi-Fi dead zones, and is perfect for large households, gamers, and remote workers.
For a seamless experience and peace of mind, you can order the eero 7 directly through Swoop. It comes with parental controls, eero Secure, and ongoing updates to keep your network running at full speed.

Gigabit routers also support newer Wi-Fi standards, stronger coverage, and multiple devices using high speeds at the same time.
With Swoop, you can choose the eero 7 mesh router, which supports nbn® speed tiers up to 2.5 Gbps, uses modern Wi-Fi technology, and is designed to deliver fast, reliable whole-home coverage.
