Nodeone

What Nodeone does

NodeOne (legal entity: Node1 Internet) is a privately held Western Australian Internet Service Provider founded in 2009 in Geraldton by Nick VanNamen and other local tech entrepreneurs who set out to build their own high-speed network after deciding that large incumbents and government programs would not deliver adequate internet to WA. The company now operates across three regional hubs — Geraldton (origin/regional HQ), Perth (metropolitan HQ since 2020), and Bunbury (Southwest operations since 2019) — serving residential consumers, small-to-medium businesses, and enterprise customers exclusively within Western Australia, with NBN services available wherever the national network reaches.

The core of the business is a proprietary N1 Fixed Wireless network spanning 106+ towers across approximately 20,000 square kilometres, including a 30-tower build-out across nine Mid-West shires under the WA State Government Digital Farm Grants Program. The network uses Air Fiber LTU Point-to-Multipoint technology (deployed first in Australia by NodeOne in 2020) and specialised Mikrotik equipment to deliver speeds up to 500 Mbps wirelessly, with sub-1ms latency within 700m of select towers. WA-hosted content caches for Google (YouTube) and Netflix provide additional streaming performance. The portfolio includes residential NBN plans (25 to 1000 Mbps), residential Fixed Wireless plans (30 to 500 Mbps), Seacrest Fibre (exclusive to Seacrest Estate in Geraldton), private fibre for select Perth apartment buildings, Business NBN and Business Fixed Wireless tiers, and Enterprise Ethernet (250/250 to 1000/1000 Mbps on 36-month contracts with Bronze/Silver/Gold SLAs). Hardware add-ons include the eero 7 Wi-Fi 7 mesh router.

NodeOne generates revenue primarily through recurring monthly subscriptions for residential and business internet services, supplemented by hardware sales (eero 7 modems/routers) and partner/channel commissions paid to IT resellers and community organisations. Distribution is multi-channel: direct-to-consumer via the nodeone.com.au website and 1300 phone sales lines, dedicated business account management, a Channel Partner Program for IT companies, and a Community Engagement Program for local organisations. Pricing ranges from A$49/month (Seacrest 25) to A$699/month (Enterprise Ethernet 1000/1000), with unlimited data standard across plans and no lock-in contracts on residential tiers. The company positions itself as 'Proudly Australian owned' with locally based support, and its logo identifies it as a Swoop-affiliated company.

Broad incumbents

• TPG Telecom: Major Australian telecommunications carrier and one of the largest NBN retailers nationally. Competes with NodeOne across NBN plans in WA but at vastly larger scale and with national brand presence.
• Optus: Major Australian telecommunications carrier with significant NBN and mobile presence. Broad incumbent competitor across residential and business connectivity markets where NodeOne operates.
• Telstra: Largest Australian telecommunications incumbent with dominant NBN and mobile market share. Competes with NodeOne for residential and business customers in WA but offers a much broader product portfolio and national scale.

Direct peers

• Superloop: ASX-listed Australian internet and wholesale infrastructure provider offering NBN and fixed wireless services. Comparable as a provider competing in similar NBN and infrastructure-backed connectivity markets across Australia.
• Pentanet: Perth-headquartered ASX-listed ISP with overlapping WA market focus and similar size/scale profile. Directly comparable as a regional WA internet provider competing for the same residential and business customer base.
• Launtel: Tasmanian-based regional ISP with similar independent, customer-service-led positioning and comparable scale. Directly comparable as a regional ISP focused on quality of service differentiation against national competitors.
• Activ8me: Australian ISP with focus on regional and rural connectivity, similar to NodeOne's regional/rural WA segment. Comparable as a provider addressing underserved regional markets where NBN fixed wireless and satellite alternatives have proven inadequate.
• Aussie Broadband: ASX-listed Australian ISP with strong regional and customer-service focused positioning, similar product portfolio spanning NBN and business connectivity. Closely comparable as an NBN reseller that has scaled nationally while emphasising support quality.
• iiNet: Major Australian NBN reseller now owned by TPG Telecom, offering residential and business NBN plans. Closely comparable in product mix and customer segments, though at much larger national scale.

Others

• Swoop: ASX-listed telecommunications group with close corporate affiliation to NodeOne (logo identifies NodeOne as 'a swoop company'). Swoop provides mobile plans through NodeOne and shares Opticomm retail service provider arrangements, making it a parent/partner rather than direct competitor.
