The short answer
This is the closest matchup on the site, because these are arguably the two best NBN providers in Australia. Superloop is slightly cheaper at most tiers and posts the best ACCC-verified peak speeds of any monitored provider, 101% of advertised download. Aussie Broadband costs about $5 more per month and answers with the strongest customer service reputation in the market: a 4.7/5 ProductReview average, the 2026 Canstar Most Satisfied Customers award, and a 100% Australian-based support team. You will be well served by either; the choice is $60 a year against a support experience.

Speed: a 4% gap you may actually measure
Superloop's 101% result means its customers, on average, received slightly more than the advertised speed during the 7pm to 11pm peak, the best performance among the 12 providers the ACCC monitors. Aussie Broadband's 97% placed it last in that group, though "last" among the monitored providers still comfortably outperforms the unmonitored budget tier. In practice: on NBN 100, that is roughly 101 Mbps against 97 Mbps in the evening. Noticeable on a speed test, invisible on Netflix.
Aussie Broadband counters with unique transparency: it publishes real-time utilisation data for every point of interconnect on its network, so you can see exactly how congested your local link is. Superloop does not offer an equivalent.
Support and extras
Aussie Broadband's service reputation is the best in Australian broadband: Canstar's 2026 Most Satisfied Customers winner, 4.7/5 on ProductReview, and consistently praised onboarding. Superloop's 4.3/5 is itself well above the industry average; this is a contest between good and excellent. Both are ASX-listed Australian companies (SLC and ABB), both support BYO modems, and both facilitate NBN Co's free Fibre Connect FTTP upgrade for eligible FTTN and FTTC addresses. Aussie Broadband adds gaming-optimised routing and seniors plans; Superloop's edge is simply the sharper everyday price.

Our verdict: Superloop or Aussie Broadband?
We recommend both of these providers regularly, which makes this a pleasant verdict to write. Superloop wins the spreadsheet: cheaper at nearly every tier and the fastest verified peak speeds of any monitored ISP. Aussie Broadband wins the phone call: when something breaks at 8pm, its support team is the one you want to reach.
If you have never needed to call an ISP in your life, take Superloop and bank the $60 a year. If your household treats an internet outage as an emergency, Aussie Broadband's premium is cheap insurance. Either way, you are choosing between the two best options in the market.
