Why Go Naked?
There are several benefits when you move from a traditional phone plus ADSL combination, to Internode Easy Naked with NodePhone VoIP.
For a start there's a single bill, with no additional phone line rental charge. All of the current Easy Naked plans - except for the Easy Naked 150 Special - include $10 NodePhone VoIP call credit every month. NodePhone VoIP call charges - such as 18 cent untimed calls to any standard fixed line phone in Australia - are very cost-effective. And there's more :
- NodePhone VoIP includes an advanced voicemail system, with no deposit and no retrieval charges. This is often an additional cost on a traditional home phone service. With NodePhone VoIP, you can even receive your voicemail messages as emails!
- Incoming Caller ID - so you can see who's calling you - is another service that generally costs more on a traditional phone line, but is a free inclusion with NodePhone VoIP.
- Finally you don't need to pay extra for your privacy - by default NodePhone VoIP is an unlisted telephone number - enjoy less telemarketing calls!
So you'll benefit from no phone line rental, cheaper calls, advanced features and (on many plans) $10 monthly NodePhone VoIP call credit. And in most cases, you can keep your existing phone number - and retain it even if you later move house.
The Included Features
Most residential customers find that our Easy Naked plans provide all of the features they require for home broadband and VoIP, including:
- NodePhone Ready - add NodePhone Voice over IP (VoIP) and save money on phone calls. In many areas you can keep your current telephone number - and most plans are also eligible for $10 monthly NodePhone VoIP call credit!
- Fixed Monthly Charge - If your monthly Internet quota (the total of your downloads plus your uploads) is exceeded, we simply shape your service to 256/256 kbps for the rest of your billing month. Note that faster excess shaping is available with a Power Pack.
- Quota on demand: simply purchase a Data Block online for any ad-hoc additional quota requirements.
- Anytime quota: use the Internet whenever you like - Internode quota isn't parcelled into 'friendly' & 'unfriendly' hours of usage.
- Unmetered content: cool content that doesn't count towards your quota*, including over 100 online streaming radio stations; the extensive games.on.net server farms for low ping gaming; massive mirrors for common file downloads; ABC iView and Fetch TV online content - and more.
* Please note that unmetering only applies to downloads - all uploads (including transmission acknowledgements and other overheads) will be counted against your quota.
- Your Choice of Contract - Choose from discounted setup on a 24 month contract with an early cancellation charge; or pay the full setup fee and have no early cancellation charges - it's your choice.

- Global Roaming - We offer a global roaming facility for dialup, Wi-Fi and hotel Ethernet access across the world via iPass (separate usage charges apply).
- Security Protection - You'll be protected by our complimentary Network Firewall, which assists in protecting your home network and helps to stop spam and viruses from spreading. You are welcome to disable that protection via an online web page if you wish.
- Choose your Hardware - Bring your own ADSL router, or buy one pre-configured from us.
New - Enhance your Easy Naked with an Option Pack
Internet enthusiasts and business customers may have more advanced requirements, and so we've developed a choice of two 'Option Packs' to address these needs.
You can choose to enhance your Easy Naked plan with either one option or the other - not both! - or alternatively, not choose an option pack at all.
The Option Packs are presented when signing up for your Easy Naked service, and can be changed on an existing service via our online plan changer.
The Power Pack Option
Adding a Power Pack option to an Easy Naked plan costs $10 per month, and adds the following features:
- Static IP - A static IP address (instead of a dynamic IP address) is provided, making these plans suitable for hosting servers and operating Internet Virtual Private Networks.
- Unmetered Uploads - Quota consumption is counted in the download direction only.
- Faster Excess - Excess traffic - beyond the monthly inclusion - is shaped at 512 kbps down / no shaping of upload. And you can still buy data blocks if required.
- Included Subdomain - Choose your own subdomain name under '.power.on.net' (on request and subject to approval by Internode) and link it to your server.
You can request your subdomain name via a support request. Please note that existing Internode SOHO ADSL customers that are plan changing to Easy Naked with a Power Pack can retain their '.soho.on.net' subdomain if they would prefer (in fact, both subdomains will work).
The Business Pack Option
The needs of business customers are addressed by adding a Business Pack option to an Easy Naked plan. This option is $30 per month, and adds the following features:
- Static IP - A static IP address is provided, with the option of a /29 IP subnet available on request and at no extra charge.
- Unmetered Uploads - Quota consumption is counted in the download direction only.
- Unshaped Excess - Instead, excess traffic is charged at 0.5 cents per Mbyte (download direction only) up to a maximum of $299 per month. Please note that Data Blocks are not available with the Business Pack option.
- Included Subdomain - Choose your own subdomain under '.on.net' (on request and subject to approval by Internode) and link it your servers.
- Priority Business Support - The Business Pack entitles you to priority access to our award-winning, local customer support team, and your ADSL is backed by our Service Level Agreement with defined performance and availability targets.
You can request your subdomain name or IP subnet via a support request. Please note that existing Internode Business ADSL customers that are plan changing to Easy Naked with a Business Pack will retain their current '.on.net' subdomain and any associated IP subnet.
