Powering On Your Modem
Is the internet light off?
Ensure that you received an email from us advising
that your NBN™ service is ACTIVE.
- If you have, please turn to page 6 to log in to your
modem’s interface and enter the settings manually.
- If you haven’t received the email, your NBN™

appointment. It will include a reference number in
case you need to call with any concerns.

Your modem’s WiFi has been pre-configured.
You’ll find the WiFi network name (SSID) and
password (Wireless Key) printed on a sticker on
the back of your modem.
1. Make sure that WiFi is enabled on your computer, tablet,
smartphone or other WiFi device.
2. View the list of available WiFi networks on your WiFi
device and select the network that matches the network
name on your modem’s sticker.
3. Enter the WiFi password (wireless key) exactly as printed
on the sticker on the back of your modem.
Note: You may notice there are two WiFi networks present.
You may connect to either of these, however most devices
will only be compatible with the 2.4GHz network. See the
sticker on your modem for more network details.
WiFi (Wireless) Setup

By default, your VoIP phone service should
set up automatically once your NBN™ and
VoIP services are active and your modem is
online.
All you have to do is plug a handset into the Phone1 port
on the back of your modem.
If you can’t use your VoIP phone service after setting up,
please use the contact details on the back cover of this
guide to call our Support Team for assistance.
Porting your existing phone number to VoIP?
If you’ve asked us to convert your existing phone
number to a VoIP service, please allow up to 7 days after
your NBN™ service is active for this porting process to
complete. We’ll send you an email to confirm when your
VoIP service is active and ready to use.

1. After logging into the modem interface (see steps 1—2 on previous page)
you can customize your WiFi network details as part of the Setup Wizard,
or by selecting the Wireless panel.
2. Your modem has 2 WiFi networks which share the same default
password but broadcast on different frequencies. If your device(s) can’t
connect to the latest 5GHz network, use the 2.4GHz one.
3. Wireless 2.4GHz or Wireless 5GHz (WiFi) must be turned ON. If SSID
Broadcast is OFF, your network name will not be visible to WiFi devices
and you’ll have to enter it manually to connect.
4. The 2.4/5GHz SSID Broadcast names are the names of your WiFi
networks. You can change these to anything you’d like.
5. Security Key Type/Security Mode should be set to WPA+WPA2 PSK.
6. Your 2.4/5GHz Security Keys/Wireless passwords are the passwords for
your WiFi networks. Change these to something that’s hard for others
to guess but easy for you to remember. Make sure you write down your
new WiFi details, otherwise you may need to factory reset your modem
if you forget them.
7. Click Save. After changing your WiFi details, you may need to reconnect
your WiFi device(s) using the new name/password.

The Setup Wizard allows you to change the username
and password used to log in at http://10.1.1.1. This can
be handy if you have tenants or meddling teens and you
don’t want them to change your modem settings.
Default username: admin
Default password: Printed on the sticker
on the base of your modem
To keep the defaults, simply retype them in all text boxes.
If you do set a customer username and/or password, you
should write it down and keep it somewhere safe.
All done!
If you can’t get online, see the back cover of this
guide to contact our friendly Support Team.

Tip
If you ever forget your custom login details, you can
factory reset the modem to return it to the default
settings. However, you will also lose all other custom
settings, so you’ll need to set up your modem again.
