No experience with NBN unlimited plans, but you could have a look here:

Personally I have a cheap Telstra XS plan - $15/month for 5GB fast 4G that shapes down to 1.5Mbps unlimited (but it does say that rate may drop in busy times, though I haven't experienced it myself). See:

Any possibility of asking a neighbor with a fixed unlimited connection to share their connection via wifi for some contribution to their monthly fee ?

Subject: Advice on broadband options
 
Hi to all,

Now my university is closed for the duration  of the health crisis, I have to give at least 16 hours of tutorials / lectures a week via zoom.  The audience varies between 20 and 80 students.  As my only internet connections are:
1.  is a dongle (with Vodafone) that has 3GB , and
2.  my mobile phone with 60GB (also with Vodafone)
I am urgently in need of a much better connection. 

Any advice on what and with whom? I am in rented accommodation in Macleod,  pretty much a mobile blackspot,  and  the landlord doesn't like the idea of cable being brought to the premises.

Thanks
Joanna

I have done this already.  No luck there: one neighbour using her phone as hotspot, the other is an old lady no internet.

Any idea how much bandwidth these zoom sessions will consume?

Also, any recommendations for quick/immediate unlimited broadband in case I manage to persuade the landlord?

Thanks 
J.
