Exetel offers for sale two Mobile Broadband services - a Premium Service (based on Optus’s Layer 2 service), and a Standard Service (based on Optus’s Layer 3 service). The Standard Service product is not managed or integrated into the Exetel network and is best suited to customers who prefer a lower cost service, as opposed to the higher performance of our Premium MBB service.

Service Coverage

The current maps of all parts of Australia can be found by clicking on the 'Coverage Maps' on the Optus website. These maps are being constantly updated and provide a reasonable guide to any user being able to obtain realistic service. However, these maps are simply a guide and many factors can influence whether a particular user can obtain a suitable service or any service at all.

There are too many variables including number of concurrent users at any time on any tower in any location, the distance from any tower, the quality of the equipment being used, obstructions between the user and the tower being accessed for any estimate of speed likely to be obtained from this service at any given time or in any given location.

Advantages of Exetel's Mobile Broadband

You can buy a mobile broadband service direct from Telstra, Optus or Vodafone or one of those companies re-sellers or wholesale customers. The range of plans and conditions is very 'wide' and very 'deep' with a blaze of disclaimers and 'fine print' applying to virtually every description of what you might get and how much it might cost.

We believe Exetel offers you the following sensible advantages over most competitive offerings.

1. The plans are simple to understand and have virtually no 'fine print' or 'conditions'.
2. All plans are offered with three components:
   1. A once only set up fee
   2. A monthly service charge
   3. A clearly stated cost per gigabyte used (both uploads and downloads are counted)
3. Zero and 12 month contracts.
4. You are free to use any 'equipment' to connect to the Exetel service and you are free to obtain that equipment from whatever source you choose.
5. Support for any issue you encounter is a phone call away with the phone being answered on average in less than a minute.

For Use With Desktop/Laptop Computer, Apple iPad

If you are using these plans in a Laptop or desktop computer you will require an Mobile Broadband modem for them to operate.

If you require Exetel to provide a modem then you can (on the order form) order a Huawei E1762E at a cost of $5.00 per month over 12 months (total $60.00).

** Data (both up and down) is charged per kilobyte and the monthly bill is rounded to the nearest megabyte.

All prices include GST.
