Default internet perth

Hi all

Can anyone offer suggestion for internet providers in perth and cost for wireless unlimited in a home. How long does it take to set up?

Many thanks!

You will notice that Internode is the most popular ,because its the best its not the cheapest .

Do you mean wired to the home then a wireless modem or wireless to the home ?

Unlimited is available but there are plenty of 200GB - 500GB plans available
which are nearly the same thing (IMO)

I am with iinet and have been since we arrived almost 6 years ago. Have had no serious issues with them at all. I have had to call their support a couple of times and they have always been fantastic. Would highly recommend.

Been with westnet for 3 years now and have had no problems with their product and tecnical support. However their customer service stinks when trying to change packages, even when upgrading.

They are owned by iinet now so I think they will be very similar.

I will second what others have said about iinet. They are a Perth based company, so we seem to get the best internet setup. I am semi-rural and I get a 17-20Mbps speed.

Their internet service has a negative reputation of biblical proportions.

My friends, small business owners, have had big problems with Telstra. We're also with iinet, have been for years and their service is very good. The only problem we had with broadband was about 1 year ago, because there was something wrong with the line, but Telstra tried to fob us off that it was iinet's fault.

They have good deals and if you go outside a city the best coverage but the customer service is shocking.

mixing your metaphors... Its incorrect to mention Telstra and Customer Service in the same sentence... Just doesn't exist...
