Best Home Fibre Broadband Plan in Singapore (2023)

With so many of us working from home, having a steady and fast WiFi signal can make or break your entire day. 

 

Best Credit Cards for Paying Telco Bills in Singapore on SingSaver

Telco: OCBC 365 Card | POSB Everyday Card | Maybank Family & Friends Card | UOB One Card | UOB Absolute Cashback Card | Citi Cash Back+ Card | Standard Chartered Simply Cash Card

Singapore boasts one of the world’s highest Internet penetration rates, and the home broadband market in Singapore is hugely competitive.

The early Internet days were dominated by the three telcos (Singtel, StarHub and M1), but the market has seen a number of virtual operators who’ve managed to carve out a foothold in the market, offering similar services at comparable rates.

Virtual operators do not actually own their own fibre optic network infrastructure. Instead, they buy network access wholesale from the likes of Singtel, M1 and Starhub and offer bandwidth at a lower price to consumers.

Sorting through all these can be overwhelming especially with so many providers and options around. That's why we’re here to help with an in-depth guide to choosing the Best Home Broadband Plans in Singapore

 

What is broadband internet?

Broadband internet refers to high-speed internet access that is faster than the traditional dial-up access.

These days, loading a page a few extra seconds slower or watching a video that’s not in 4K is unacceptable. That’s why it’s important to be hooked up with a high-speed broadband internet plan.

There are a few broadband technologies including wireless, fibre optics, Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), and cable. However, fibre optics is by far the most popular broadband type in Singapore. 

 

What is fibre broadband?

Fibre broadband uses a network of fibre optic cables that can transmit large amounts of data at the speed of light. This means that its by far the fastest and most reliable broadband, and they’re great for streaming, downloading, and gaming on multiple devices. 


There are a few fibre broadband providers in Singapore:

  • M1
  • Singtel
  • MyRepublic
  • StarHub
  • ViewQwest
  • WhizComms

 

Home Fibre Broadband Plans in Singapore 2023

Let's start with an overview of the home fibre broadband plans available in Singapore today. We've summarised the key features and information in the following table:

Provider Monthly Cost* Speed Best for
M1 From S$30.18 to S$60.46 From 500Mbps to 2Gbps Additional mobile broadband connection at no charge
StarHub From S$30.18 to S$67.52 From 500Mbps to 2Gbps Fully connected entertainment ecosystem with Starhub's cable TV and Disney+
Singtel From S$39.37 to S$193.80 From 1Gbps to 10Gbps Variety of options and speed) for broadband connection
MyRepublic From S$27.99 to S$65.99 From 200Mbps to 2Gbps Good balance between price and connectivity options
ViewQwest From S$28.99 to S$57.99 From 1Gbps to 2Gbps Fibre broadband plans without the need for a router
WhizComms From S$28.08 to S$39.96 From 300Mbps to 1Gbps No-frills fibre broadband connectivity

*Listed prices based on 24-month contract and correct at time of writing.

 


 

M1 — starts from S$30.18

 

Plan / Speed Cost per month (24 months contract) Cost per month (12 months contract)
500Mbps S$30.18 S$40.27
1Gbps S$40.27 S$50.37
1Gbps (Gamer) S$52.49
2Gbps S$60.46

 

Before virtual operators came into the picture, M1 was the underdog amongst the big three telcos. Today, the competition is getting stiffer. Thus you’ll see quite a few freebies thrown into the mix when you sign up for a 24-months broadband subscription plan (1Gbps and above only) with M1.

Besides a free wireless router for new sign-ups, you also get a 4G mobile broadband free of charge for 24 months. This is useful if you need a second mobile connection for your tablet.

For those looking for new gadgets, you also have the option of adding a Xiaomi TV, an ASUS TUF Gaming Monitor, an Apple iPad, or a Samsung Galaxy Tab to your fibre broadband plan. Prices range from S$14 to S$30 per month for two years.

👍 Best for: those who want an additional mobile broadband connection at no charge.

  • Either Asian+ or Entertainment + TV Pass or Netflix
 

 

Similar to the other providers, StarHub has included a few freebies, and this includes free activation (for 2Gbps plan only) and installation (for 1Gbps & 2Gbps plans only).

Currently, new users who sign up for the 1Gbps plan (for 24 months contract only) will enjoy a free three months subscription with the promo code <FREE3MTH>.

For those interested in the 2Gbps plan, you will receive a free Oppo Reno7 5G worth S$554, a free Smart WiFi Pro router worth S$399, and a free Disney+ subscription.

A point to note is that a one-year Disney+ subscription costs S$119.98, which means you are still saving in the long run.

Do also note that there is an activation fee of S$57.24 for 500Mbps and 1Gbps Fibre Broadband plans.

 

👍 Best for: those who want a fully connected entertainment ecosystem with StarHub's cable TV and Disney+.

*Online exclusive only

While Singtel's monthly subscriptions lean on the pricier end, it does provider customers with several fibre broadband options, not to mention the highest speed at 10Gbps. Unfortunately, the available plans are ties to a 24-month contract, so you are out of luck if you intend to switch out within a year.

However, the plans come with comprehensive options, and you can even choose to get a router and/or a WiFi mesh to connect your home (varies for different plans). What’s more, all Singtel plans come with a home line, 500mb mobile broadband, 12 free months of Amazon Prime and Singtel Home.

Similar to M1, Singtel customers also have the option to purchase various lifestyle products such as Microsoft Surface Laptop Go, Nintendo Switch OLED, Secretlab gaming chair and more with their fibre broadband plans. The price will be charged to your bill over 24 months (interest-free payments).

 

👍 Best for: those who want more options (and good speed) for their broadband connection. Also useful for larger houses with more rooms or multi-storey houses.

MyRepublic builds its plans around flexibility, giving you the choice to sign up for 24-month, 12-month or even no lock-in period. Of course, the cost savings you get from a 24-month plan is significantly higher compared to a no-contract 1Gbps option (S$61.50/month).

Similar to Singtel, you have the option to choose between a router or WiFi mesh, with the latter being better if you prefer to strengthen your wireless connection at home.

Those who game frequently will also be pleased to know that there are several gaming fibre broadband options to feed their gaming hobby. Slightly pricier than the regular plans, these options come bundled with a gaming router for lower ping and improved latency.

 

👍 Best for: those who want a good balance between price and connectivity options. Also for those who game frequently.

ViewQwest is very clear in defining their plans, as the listed prices are based on the plans’ speed.

While their basic plans might seem very affordable, it does not include the cost of a router. So you’ll have to factor in some additional costs to purchase a router, either from ViewQwest or from online stores that might offer it at a cheaper price.

Another thing to consider is the various advanced features provided by ViewQwest. For example, its Freedom DNS allows you to legally access streaming content that might not be available in Singapore due to geographical restrictions.

 

👍 Best for: those who do not require a router.

 


 

WhizComms — starts from S$28.08

 

Plan / Speed Cost per month (24 months contract) Cost per month (12 months contract)
No Frills 1Gbps S$35.64 S$41.04
1Gbps with TP-Link Archer AX55 AX3000 Wireless Router S$42.12 S$47.52
1Gbps with 2x TP-Link Deco X55 AX3000 WiFi 6 Mesh Routers S$57.24

 

Want to stop paying for expensive fibre broadband bundles? With WhizComms, what you see is what you get. In fact, it offers the most affordable 1Gbps plan in the market thanks to its no-frills approach.

Instead of passing the cost of freebies and add-ons to the customers, you'll only be paying for the speed of your fibre broadband plan.

Available in both 12 and 24 months, WhizComms should be ideal for those who already have a router and are on a budget to stick to for home utilities.

 

👍 Best for: those who require no-frills fibre broadband connectivity.

Other things to note before you sign up for a broadband plan

 

1Gbps is the middle ground

The most common packages offered are 1Gbps plans, indicating that the majority of Singapore home broadband consumers are satisfied with the speed offered by such connections. Hence, if you're not sure which plan to get, starting with a 1Gbps plan is a good idea.

2Gbps packages are the next most common, but are aimed at gamers or those who need super-fast WiFi connection.

 

Additional fees to look out for

Aside from your monthly subscription, there are other installation charges by NetLink Trust (NLT), the owner, designer, builder and operator of the passive fibre network structure.

 

Fee Type Price
NLT Service Activation Fee S$57.24
Termination point Installation Fee

S$162 (HDB or high-rise condo)

S$291.60 (landed homes)

Relocation, Repair and Replacement & Removal Charge

S$162 (HDB or high-rise condo)

S$291.60 (landed homes)

Additional cable run for buildings fitted with end-to-end NetLink Trust's fibre infrastructure beyond the first 15 metres S$2.16 per additional 5 metre block
Additional cable run for buildings fitted with building owner's / building developer's network beyond the first 25 metres S$2.16 per additional 5 metre block

 

Not all 2Gbps plans are created equal

Not all 2Gbps plans are the same. Some ISPs offer a dual bundle, where you have two 1Gbps connections carrying the load in your home. Other plans may include a 1Gbps dedicated gaming connection + 1Gbps connection for general use. Be sure to discuss your needs with your ISP before signing up.

Another thing to note is that WiFi connectivity is affected by more than just the speed of your connection. The configuration of your home, as well as the distance between the router and your devices, also play a part in whether or not you experience WiFi 'dead zones' in your home.

To solve this problem, more powerful routers with longer range and higher output, or a set of routers that work together (a.k.a. Mesh WiFi) are often necessary. Some ISPs do offer these solutions, usually as part of their gamer bundle. If you're facing this issue, it might be worthwhile to give the more expensive gamer bundles a go.

 

Contract vs. no-contract

Although Internet connectivity has become an essential utility, some users prefer not to be locked down by contracts. They pay higher prices for the freedom to cancel anytime with no hassle.

All things being equal, it’s almost always more beneficial to sign up for a 24-month plan, as doing so gives you more savings.

In summary, the trade-off is between cost and speed. The faster the speed, the more you should expect to pay.

 

Which is the cheapest home broadband plan in Singapore?

What's the difference between fibre and broadband?

Broadband is a term used to describe a fast and reliable internet connection that allows you to browse the web, stream videos, and download files quickly. It is a general category that includes various types of internet connections, such as fibre, DSL, and cable.

Fibre broadband, on the other hand, is a specific type of broadband connection that uses thin strands of glass or plastic, called fibre optic cables, to transmit data at incredibly high speeds. These fibre optic cables are capable of carrying a larger amount of data compared to traditional copper cables used in DSL or cable connections.

This means that fibre broadband offers faster and more stable internet speeds, which can result in smoother online experiences and better performance, especially for activities that require a lot of bandwidth like streaming high-definition videos or playing online games.

Should I choose 500Mbps or 1Gbps as my broadband speed?

expand_more

When choosing between 500Mbps and 1Gbps speeds, it ultimately depends on your internet usage and specific needs.

If you engage in activities that require heavy data usage, such as streaming high-definition videos, online gaming, or working with large files, then a 1Gbps connection may provide a smoother and faster experience. It offers double the speed of 500Mbps, allowing for quicker downloads and uploads.

However, if your internet usage is more casual, such as browsing websites, checking emails, or streaming standard-definition videos, a 500Mbps connection should suffice and provide satisfactory speeds.

Consider your usage habits, the number of devices connected simultaneously, and the budget you have allocated for your internet service when making a decision."
