rewrite this title Superloop’s just-launched NBN 2000 plan already has a $20p/m discount – get 2Gbps for just AU$145p/m

It’s been just over a week since the much-anticipated September 2025 NBN speed upgrades arrived in Australia, and now that the confetti of the launch party has settled, we can get into the nitty-gritty of searching for the best prices. And what better place to start than with the speedy new NBN 2000 tier?

If you want to experience the fastest download speeds now available in Australia, an NBN 2000 plan is the way to go. To get the elephant out of the room, however, they’re not exactly what most people would call ‘affordable’. That’s what makes Superloop’s NBN 2000 for just AU$145 for the first 6 months a deal worth shouting about for anyone keen to try the new tier.

As with all the new high-speed tiers, NBN 2000 requires your premises to have either a fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP) and hybrid fibre-coax (HFC) connection type.

Before you do sign up, we do need to note that there’s a small upload-speed difference between the type of NBN 2000 plan that’s offered to FTTP and HFC addresses. FTTP addresses will have access to up to 200Mbps uploads, while HFC addresses are limited to up to 100Mbps. We say ‘up to’ because that’s what NBN Co says should be achievable – although because the NBN 2000 speed tier is still in its infancy, Superloop isn’t yet able to provide a typical evening speed figure.

The same goes for download speed. While 2,000Mbps is the theoretical maximum, the telco doesn’t yet have enough data to advertise the real-world speeds you can expect at home.

Note, too, that if you sign up for this new Hyperfast plan, you’ll likely also need to have a new NBN network termination device (NTD) installed, which involves a technician attending your premises. Older NTDs only support a maximum speed of 1,000Mbps, so unless you’ve only had NBN installed in the last few months, you’ll likely need the new upgraded version. This is all free of charge, but it will obviously add a bit of time to the setup process – unlike with NBN 1000 and below speeds, Superloop can’t just flick a switch to move you over.

Superloop will let you know if you need the new NTD, and in the meantime, the telco will ask you to select either its NBN 500 or NBN 1000 plan options to connect temporarily while you wait for the installation.

The other equipment-related factor to consider is whether you need to upgrade your Wi-Fi router. In all likelihood the answer will be yes – and to take full advantage of NBN 2000 speeds, you’ll need to ensure you upgrade to a Wi-Fi 7 router.

Fortunately, Superloop offers an eero 7 router free of charge on the proviso that you remain connected for 36 months. You can elect to purchase additional eero units to create a mesh network around your home and extend coverage, but these will need to be purchased for either AU$199 for a single additional device, or $359 for two. You do, however, have the option of paying these additional devices off either outright or over a 12- or 24-month period.

If the prospect of multi-gigabit speeds sounds ideal to you, then Superloop currently has the best offering in our opinion. Having said that, although we love the fact that Superloop’s 2Gbps plan is affordable in comparison to competitors, for our money, the best NBN 500 plans are worth checking out for their unrivalled combination of speed and value.
