About PickNBN

What Is PickNBN?

PickNBN is an independent Australian resource that helps households understand the broadband and NBN options available at their address. We cover every suburb in Australia — over 14,000 — with technology breakdowns, speed expectations, and upgrade status.

Whether you’re moving house, comparing ISPs, or just curious about your area’s internet infrastructure, PickNBN gives you the facts in plain language.

Our Data Sources

All information on PickNBN comes from publicly available Australian government and industry data:

• NBN Co — technology footprint, premises counts, and FTTP upgrade rollout data
• Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) — Census data on household internet connectivity and broadband adoption
• Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) — broadband speed benchmarks by technology type

We update our data periodically as new datasets are published by these agencies.

For a detailed look at how we calculate our Internet Score and grade each suburb, see our Methodology page.
