Plan Notes:

*Open plans are not limited in speed. Speeds for most customers will be between 2 and 4mbps download. Speed for customers will be dependent on their location, signal strength of their vsat and internet destination. For ABG Data Speed testing purposes, Open Plans are considered to have a peak speed of 1m/256kbps.
Peak speeds refer to the speed delivered to the Satellite technology installed at the customer’s premises. They are not necessarily equivalent to the speeds you will achieve in practice. Actual speeds will be affected by many external factors which include the number of end-users using the service at the same time, the hardware, software, the connection within the premises (e.g. a wireless router may not operate at the speed of your satellite connection) and the type/source of content being downloaded
Peak time is from 11am to 11pm, off-peak is from 11pm to 11am (except for Nite plans). Nite Plan peak time is from 7am to 11pm and off-peak is from 11pm to 7am

Bonus Data:
Please note that all plans come with bonus off-peak* data, doubling your total data each month or more. E.g. If you're on a 500MB plan you get an extra 500MB (off-peak*) FREE! If you're on a 2GB plan you get 2GB (off-peak*) FREE!  Many plans offer more than double bonus data. 

Data Blocks:
Should you need more data download during any month, you are able to purchase additional data-blocks at any time to increase your download usage. Anyone on a shaped plan can have their speed un-restricted by purchasing the additional data-block, and those on excess usage plans are able to avoid the much more expensive excess usage fees. You are able to apply the data-block as a once off, or for a series of months or apply it permanently.
You are able to add data-blocks using MyAccount or by sending an email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or calling our customer care team.

Great value extras!
You also get...

• 5 FREE email addresses (additional email addresses available for small cost)
• FREE spam and virus filtering (note, no quarantine management on our free service, upgrade to suremessage filtering for a small cost)
• 10MB of free web space

Your choice!
You can choose either a volume or capped option for any of the plans below. Capped means your speed will 'shaped' to 64k/64k after your total data allowance has been used. Volume plans are not shaped but there is $0.05 fee per MB after your allowance has been used. we recommend volume plans for business or SOHO users to ensure your service is not impacted.
