Newcastle is set for NBN to the premise upgrade, but it will cost you more to switch.

The Albanese look set to deliver on one election promise to continue the NBN fiber to the premises roll out.

Today Labor have announced that the following suburbs have been included in the upcoming upgrade.

  • Wallsend
  • Stockton
  • Shortland
  • NorthLambton
  • New Lambton
  • Merewether
  • Maryland
  • Lambton
  • kotara
  • Islington,
  • Hamilton
  • Glendale
  • Elermore Vale
  • Cooks Hill
  • Cardiff
  • Broadmeadow
  • Adamstown Heights
  • Adamstown

An upgrade will be available on-demand where an eligible household orders a higher speed plan than would currently be available to them over copper.

NBN Co expects eligible premises announced today will be able to access a full-fibre upgrade from 2024.

Before we pop the champagne on faster internet, we must remember fiber to the premises comes with an increased cost that not everyone can afford right now in the current cost of living crisis.
