BYO Router Setup
Step 1
Locate the NBN Connection Box that has been
installed inside your property.
Step 2
Ensure that this the NBN Connection Box is
connected using the white HFC cable to the cable
wall socket. This should have been completed during
the NBN activation appointment.
Step 3
Ensure that power is connected to the NBN
Connection Box. The POWER, DOWNSTREAM,
UPSTREAM and ONLINE lights should be on.
Step 4
Use a network cable to connect your router from the
WAN port on the back of the NBN Connection box to
the WAN port on your router.
Step 5
Connect a computer or laptop to your BYO router
via a cable or by WIFI and access the router
conguration page. If you are unsure how to do this,
please consult the router user guide.
Step 6
Most routers will provide a Quick Start Guide or
Setup Wizard – please try and follow these steps.
Ensure that your router is congured in WAN mode
and encapsulation is set to PPPoE. On most devices
you should leave all other settings as default. Then
congure your BYO router using the ISP username
and password that we will have emailed and SMS’d
to you.
Due to the number of router brands available it is
hard to give precise setup information here. We
recommend consulting your router user guide or
speaking to the manufacturer of your device.
Step 7
After you have successfully congured your BYO
router 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
router become lit and steady (not ashing). The
authentication light is often labelled ‘Internet’ or
‘www’ or ‘Web’. Please consult your router user
guide if you are unsure which light is the
authentication light.
