Internet on King Island

May 18, 2023 11:36 am

King Island, located off the north-west coast of Tasmania, is a hidden gem known for its pristine beaches, lush greenery, and world-renowned dairy and produce. However, until recently, residents and businesses on the island had limited access to the internet, making it difficult for them to stay connected with the rest of the world. With Activ8me’s satellite based nbn® Sky Muster® and Sky Muster® Plus plans, residents on Magnetic Island can access fast and reliable internet having a significant impact on the island’s residents, businesses and tourism industry. 

Activ8me offers nbn® Sky Muster® plans starting from $34.95 per month and nbn® Sky Muster® Plus  plans starting from $49.95 per month, where all data is Unmetered up to 4pm daily. Only video streaming and VPN is metered after 4pm. Sky Muster® Plus plans come with free standard installation, free satellite dish and modem. There are no charges for plan changes and no lock in contracts.  

Here are some of the local sites, areas, and attractions on King Island that have been affected by this change:
