NBN fibre 2000/200 Mbps testing. This 2Gbps speed tier, along with speed upgrades to existing tiers, will be generally available in September. A new NBN NTD needs to be installed which has 2.5Gbps ports in order to get the 2Gbps speed. A lot of users will also likely need to upgrade their routers if they want to get these speeds.

You can order some now with Aussie BB. They rolled out their “Pro” plans. Sadly my FTTN isn’t supported and needs to be FTTP 😞

I believe ABB’s Pro plans are still the old speed tiers that NBN supports with higher upload speeds but most ISPs don’t sell. The 2Gbps is a new residential speed that is only available to ISPs for limited testing so far. And yeah only available on FTTP and HFC. There are options for a free upgrade to FTTP in some areas but I’m not sure what the conditions are for that.

Oh wtf, they must have accidentally let it leak on their site and now removed it. I had seen a 2Gbps plan for home and called them and started discussing both home/business tiers just last week. Excited for when it's fully launched. Enjoy it 🤓

Yeah. Most ISPs would be getting ready to update their plans for the new speeds so could have accidentally put it in their website!
