Neptune Service Uptime

When your internet provider is built to keep you connected, you can stay set on what matters to you in the moment. Let's look at how Neptune is engineered for rock solid reliability.

Latency Metrics

Carrier grade IP transit gives you smoother, real-time experiences online

We peer with leading operators globally to keep your data moving along the fastest routes, using carrier grade IP transit within Australia and beyond. This means smoother, real-time experiences whenever you connect near a Neptune Point of Presence (POP).

Here are some typical latencies within Australia, measured from locations near Neptune's primary POP in Melbourne:

0.8ms

Melbourne

10ms

Adelaide

12ms

Sydney

12ms

Hobart

Smooth connections start with squashing jitter

The difference between smooth and choppy Internet lies in minimising overall latency variance

Understanding jitter

Why your Internet provider's jitter metrics matter

Jitter is the variation in packet arrival time over a network. In layman's terms this means how much your "ping" varies in a period.

When your Internet provider has low jitter connections you'll notice:

  • Better video and sound quality in online calls
    No echoes, choppiness, or awkward delays in conversation flow.
  • Smooth, real-time gameplay
    No delayed reactions or jerky movement.
  • Perfect live streams and streamed content
    No delays in buffering, or interruptions during live content.
  • Consistently quick load times when browsing the web

Network Capacity

Continuous demand management gives you reliable speeds, any time.

Active IP transit and nbn® aggregation capacity management handles network demand to keep your speeds as advertised even during peak periods.

Aggregation link capacity

Our aggregation link with nbn® is how we move data between a Neptune POP and your connection address. High capacity aggregation with low utilisation keeps your connection fast and stable along the last mile.

IP transit capacity

IP transit is how we move your data between networks, completing the connection between a Neptune POP, and your destination on the Internet. A high-capacity, low utilisation IP transit backbone prevents bottlenecks, keeping data moving quickly to its destination.
