Before applying, it’s important to determine if a change in nbn™ technology is right for you. 

The nbn™ Technology Choice Program is an additional activity to nbn's rollout activity, so costs can vary substantially depending on the unique circumstances of each premises.

You may want to first consider making the most of your current internet experience.
nbn™ FTTP is potentially an option for most premises.
You can request a quote for nbn™ FTTP, regardless of the type of application or original nbn™ technology. The types of applications available are:
Each application is assessed individually, with a specific quote provided to build and connect the new nbn™ technology.

You can request a free quote to check the build cost for a single premises before proceeding to an application.

The build cost will depend on your location. In each case, nbn takes steps to ensure the design provides the lowest cost option aligned with nbn™ standards.
It may take up to six months or more to connect to the new nbn™ technology.
Timeframes may vary depending on the application type and complexity of the construction. We will keep you informed of key milestones as your application progresses.
