Data Allowance

Internode has the very popular NakedExtreme ADSL2+ which is available at over 100 exchanges which have an Internode DSLAM.

The Internode plans have recently undergone a significant boost! The entry level price is $49.95 and that will give you 10GB of download allowance. The next step up is $69.95 per month for 60GB of downloads (double the previous allowance at this price!).

There are two big advantages for the Internode  data allowance: 1) you can use it whenever you like – there is no peak or off-peak. 2) Uploads are not counted – it is a download allowance only.

Bundle Deals

Internode is currently offering a great bundle deal with Naked DSL. It is a $5 per month VoIP service which includes $10 of call credit each month! This is the NodePhone2-Starter plan, which will be selected as the default VoIP plan if you click through from our website to sign up with Internode.

Contract Options

Internode offers the choice of a 1 month contract with a $129 set up fee or a 24 month contract with a $79 set up fee.

Service and Support

Internode are definitely one of the best when it comes to service and support. Their tech support is based in Australia and is knowledgeable and helpful. It is available from 7.30am until midnight (Adelaide time) 7 days a week.

It is definitely worth looking at getting your hardware from Internode if you need a new modem. On all modems you buy during the sign up process, you get a 24 month fast replacement warranty. If Internode can’t fix your problem remotely, then they’ll send you a pre-configured replacement unit with a return courier bag, so you can return the faulty one to them at their cost!
