It sure does, but AFAIK it was only available to houses that use fiber (FTTP - fiber to the premises) until recently. My mum could only get 250Mbps max over the coax network before (Aussies refer to it as “HFC” - hybrid fiber and coax).
They do have a 1000/250 plan but it’s ridiculously expensive compared to the “standard” 1000/50 (called “NBN 1000” - NBN is the National Broadband Network)
My ISP used to advertise about fiber because their backend is fiber but residential connections are coax with DOCSIS whatever. One of the downsides is assymetric up/download speeds. Upload gets reduced to favour download and you get these whack ratios.
