First, make sure you’ve got a message from us asking you to plug in your nbn modem. We need to get your connection ready on our side before you plug in.

Find your phone wall socket and nbn Connection Box (NCB) – you probably already have a modem plugged in from your last internet service. Unplug any old modem from the NCB and power outlet.

Open your web browser and go to: https://192.168.0.1 https://www.routerlogin.net
