Prices, promotions, contract terms and plan availability can change. Address eligibility and final provider terms apply when ordering.
Choosing Fibre
Fibre plans can differ in speed, price, contract terms, equipment and promotions. Start with what your household needs, then compare the Fibre options available at your address.
Choose enough speed for the people and devices using your connection at the same time rather than automatically buying the fastest option.
Match speed to usage
More people online at once can increase demand, particularly when streaming, gaming, video calling or working from home overlap.
Think simultaneous use
Compare the standard price as well as promotional pricing, equipment costs and any eligible bundle savings.
Compare the whole cost
Upload performance can matter for cloud backups, large file transfers, content creation and frequent video calls.
Don't ignore upload
Check whether a plan is open term or fixed term and understand any early termination conditions before committing.
Know the commitment
Fibre availability and the options offered to you depend on your property, so checking the address should come before choosing a plan.
Check your address first
Fibre availability
Broadband availability is property-specific. Use the CompareWise address checker to see whether Fibre, 4G Wireless or 5G Wireless is returned for your location.
Fibre speed guide
More speed gives you more capacity, but it also needs to make sense for how your household uses the internet. These ranges are useful starting points rather than one-size-fits-all rules.
What broadband speed do I need? →Around 100 Mbps
Can suit smaller or lighter-use households where browsing, streaming, study and ordinary work-from-home activity make up most internet use.
Around 300–500 Mbps
Worth considering when several people regularly stream, work, study, game or use multiple connected devices at the same time.
Around 900 Mbps–1 Gbps
Can suit heavier-use homes that value faster large downloads, stronger multi-user headroom and higher performance.
2 Gbps+
Designed for very high bandwidth needs. For many households it may be more capacity than they need, so suitability matters before speed alone.
Learn about Hyperfibre →Fibre is a strong starting point for households that value reliable fixed-line performance, multiple users online at once and a choice of speed tiers.
It can be particularly useful for busy homes where streaming, working, gaming and cloud activity regularly happen together.
A high-speed Fibre or Hyperfibre plan can be impressive, but paying for capacity you rarely use may not be the best match for your household.
CompareWise asks about your household and usage so the recommendation can focus on suitability rather than simply pushing the biggest speed number.
Find your Fibre fit
CompareWise combines address availability with your household, usage and priorities to help narrow your broadband choices.
Compare broadband →Frequently asked questions
Fibre broadband uses fibre-optic infrastructure to provide an internet connection to a property. Fibre plans are available across a range of speed tiers, from everyday Fibre through to higher-speed options.
Use the CompareWise Fibre availability checker and select your exact New Zealand address. Availability is property-specific, so checking the address is more useful than relying only on suburb or city-level coverage.
It depends on household size and how the connection is used. Lighter-use households may be well served by an entry Fibre tier, while larger or heavier-use households may benefit from more speed and capacity.
Faster plans provide more capacity, but the fastest tier is not automatically the best value. If your household will not use the additional performance, a lower Fibre tier may be a better fit.
They suit different needs. Fibre is a strong option when consistent fixed-line performance is important, while Wireless can appeal for simplicity and flexibility. Availability and household requirements should guide the choice.
Standard Fibre plans commonly cover everyday through to high-performance household speeds, while Hyperfibre extends into multi-gigabit speeds. Hyperfibre availability, equipment requirements and pricing can differ from standard Fibre.
