| BYO Modem Setup
Step 1
Locate the telephone wall socket in your property
that has been activated for NBN. Please note that
there may be multiple telephone wall sockets in your
property.
Step 2
Disconnect all equipment from your telephone
sockets. This includes phones and fax machines
plugged in around the property. These devices will
interfere with the NBN signal.
Step 3
Connect your BYO modem to the telephone wall
socket using the DSL or VDSL port on the back of
the modem and power it on. It is important to use the
rst (main) socket at your property. If you are unsure
of this, you may require a private phone technician to
check your wiring.

Step 4
After you have connected the modem to the wall
socket and powered it up – you should see the DSL
light on the modem start to ash. After several
minutes this should stop ashing and become
steady. This shows you that you have successfully
connected the modem to the line that NBN is active
on. If this does not stop ashing, you should try
alternative telephone wall sockets in the property
until it does.
Step 5
Connect a computer or laptop to your BYO modem
via a cable or by WIFI and access the modem
conguration page. If you are unsure how to do this,
please consult the modem user guide.
Step 6
Most modems will provide a Quick Start Guide or
Setup Wizard – please try and follow these steps.
Ensure that your modem is congured in VDSL mode
and encapsulation is set to PPPoE. On most devices
you should leave all other settings as default. Then
congure your BYO modem using the ISP username
and password that we will have emailed and SMS’d to
you.
Due to the number of modem brands available it
is hard to give precise setup information here. We
recommend consulting your modem user guide or
speaking to the manufacturer of your device.

Step 7
After you have successfully congured your BYO modem please wait a couple of minutes for it to connect to
the network. After a couple of minutes you should see the authentication light on the modem become lit and
steady (not ashing). The authentication light is often labelled ‘Internet’ or ‘www’ or ‘Web’. Please consult your
modem user guide if you are unsure which light is the authentication light.

username and password. Triple check for any spelling mistakes or
typos.

Internet dropouts
1. Check that all other devices are disconnected from the telephone
sockets inside the property. This includes phones, fax machines, lters,
splitters, extension cords and ensure the modem is connected directly
to the rst (main) telephone wall socket in the property.
2. If you have auxiliary telephone sockets in the house, you may wish
to engage a ACMA certied technician to disconnect your auxiliary
sockets and optimise your in house cabling for VDSL.
