    Terms and conditions

    GENERAL: Fair Go Policy Applies. Offer available to credit approved customers. The Optus Fair Go Policy applies.

    COVERAGE AND SERVICEABILITY: The Optus 4G Home Internet service uses our 4G network and it is designed to be used in the home. The 4G Internet Service is only available in selected areas on the Optus 4G Plus network with the modem supplied by Optus. There may also be technical or commercial reasons that affect your ability to access the service at your address. The service cannot be used overseas. Coverage availability will vary depending on your device and location. A service qualification (SQ) and coverage check based on your address will be conducted before your order is accepted. The SQ check is an indication that your chosen location is within a 4G Home Internet serviceable area, it does not guarantee that your address is 4G serviceable. We recommend that you position your modem close to a window to maximise signal strength.

    EQUIPMENT NEEDS AND COST: These plans can only be used with the Optus-supplied modems. If you're on a 24-month Optus 4G Internet Unlimited plan, you will be provided with the Optus modem and your device repayments will be reduced by a monthly credit. If you're on a month-to-month plan, you will need to purchase the Optus modem at an upfront cost, which will be advised at the time of purchase, in order to use this plan. The SIM supplied with the modem will not work in any other device and must not be removed from the modem.

    MINIMUM TERM: New and existing customers can connect to a 4G Internet Unlimited plan on a month-to-month or 24-month contract. The minimum term and charging commence when your service is activated. Service activation occurs when you receive the modem.

    Frequently asked questions

    What is Optus 4G Internet?

    Optus 4G Internet is an alternative way to get internet compared to what you might think of as a ‘traditional’ internet connection like ADSL or nbn™. Instead of relying on networks of underground cable, Optus 4G Internet uses mobile towers to deliver an internet connection.

    Is Optus 4G Internet different to WiFi? 

    While Optus 4G Internet and WiFi are related, they are different technology with different functions. Optus 4G Internet delivers internet to your home by sending a signal from nearby mobile towers to your modem. From there, your modem creates a WiFi network so you can use internet on devices such as your phone or laptop wirelessly.

    What is the Optus Coverage Commitment?

    The Optus Coverage Commitment allows customers to cancel their Optus 4G Internet service if they are having mobile coverage related issues and Optus agrees that it is a mobile coverage related issue. To learn more visit https://www.optus.com.au/about/network.
