nbn® 50 plans FAQs
nbn® 50 is an internet connection plan on the nbn that gives download speeds of up to 50 Mbps and a maximum upload speed of 20 Mbps. This plan is a great choice for households of up to four average internet users.
nbn® 50/20 refers to the maximum download speed (50 Mbps) and upload speed (20 Mbps) offered on this plan.
According to the ACCC, the average NBN download speeds during busy hours for 50 Mbps plans is 48.5 Mbps – extremely close to the advertised speed.
The 50 Mbps speed is good enough for most households of up to four users. It can handle multiple devices streaming, browsing and gaming simultaneously. In fact, many people consider nbn® 50 to be the best bang for buck for an average-sized household.
Online gaming actually requires a lot less internet speed than you might think. Different games obviously have different speed requirements, but an nbn® 50 plan will be fast enough to reliably play even the biggest games.
Yes, 50 Mbps is more than fast enough for Netflix. The streaming service recommends a minimum speed of 3 Mbps for SD quality (standard definition), 5 Mbps for HD quality (high definition), and 25 Mbps for streaming in Ultra HD (or 4K).
Yes, you should be able to stream 4K content on at least two devices simultaneously.
Absolutely. In fact, Zoom requires just 0.6 to 1.5 Mbps of upload and download speed to make a group call. Different types of calls, how many people are on it, different levels of video quality and whether you’re screen sharing or not will determine what speed you need, but at a maximum you can expect to need about 4 Mbps.
Yes, you could easily have two people working from home on a 50 Mbps plan. You’ll be able to Zoom, upload and download, send files, research and multitask with ease on a 50 Mbps plan.
The main difference is speed.
- nbn® 50 provides up to 50 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload.
- nbn® 100 used to provide 100 Mbps download and 20–40 Mbps upload, but as part of the September 2025 nbn® speed upgrade, eligible FTTP and HFC customers on nbn® 100 have now been uplifted to nbn® Home Fast (500/50 Mbps).
This means that moving up from nbn® 50 doesn’t just double your download speed — if you’re on FTTP or HFC, you may be upgraded straight to 500 Mbps downloads and 50 Mbps uploads. That’s a big jump in performance, especially for households with more users, gamers, or people who regularly upload and download large files.
If you have a household of more than five simultaneous users, or have heavy internet demands, you may want to upgrade to a 100 Mbps plan. Our no-lock-in contracts mean you can upgrade to a faster speed tier at any time.
No. The September 2025 nbn® speed upgrade only applied to plans 100 Mbps and above. nbn® 50 remains unchanged, continuing to deliver up to 50/20 Mbps.
If you want more speed, eligible FTTP and HFC customers can step up to nbn® Home Fast (500/50 Mbps), Home Superfast (750/50 Mbps), or Home Ultrafast (1000/100 Mbps).
