Checking the status lights on your indoor nbn Connection Box (NCB) for nbn FTTP can be useful for troubleshooting.

Are the lights behaving strangely?
If you're seeing some really unusual behaviour such as the lights for empty ports flashing, have there been recent lightning storms in your area?
If you think your NCB, cables or other nbn equipment have been affected by a lightning strike, please call us on 1300 997 271.
Current nbn® FTTP Connection Box models
Most premises will get a one-port NCB, and select premises will get a 4-port NCB.
There are 2 different models of each, and they both have the same status lights – the only difference between them is the location of the power port.
Opening the cover
- If your NCB has the current wall bracket (shown below) then you can always see the lights. To access the ports, you can open the cover from the left side.
- If your NCB has been fitted into an original wall bracket, the cover opens from the base.
nbn® FTTP Connection Box Status Lights
Are all the lights off? Press the LIGHTS ON/OFF button to turn the NCB lights back on. When this button is used to turn lights off, they’ll stay off even if the NCB is restarted.
| Light | States and meaning | |
|---|---|---|
| Power | Off = No power, or NCB lights are turned off. Press the LIGHTS ON/OFF button to turn the NCB lights back on. Green = Your NCB has power. This light flashes when your NCB is starting up or downloading software. |
|
| Optical* | Off = Your NCB is disabled. Please call us on 1300 997 271 as we'll need to lodge a ticket with nbn®. Green = Successful network connection. This light flashes during connection activity. Red = No connection to the network. Try troubleshooting. |
|
| Alarm | Off = No issues detected. Red = Issue detected. Try troubleshooting. |
|
| Port | Off = Nothing is plugged into this port. Green = A device is plugged in. This light will flash during data transfer. |
|
*If you have a 4-port NCB:
- Your Optical light may be green (GPON mode) or blue (XGS-PON mode). If the light is alternating red/green/blue, please call us on 1300 997 271 as we’ll need to get your NCB activated.
- You’ll have 4 numbered Port lights to show connections to each port.
Original nbn® FTTP Connection Box model
Lifting the cover
If your NCB has a cover, it opens by lifting the cover upwards from the base.
Once the cover is lifted, you'll see the status lights at the top of the NCB and the ports are on the bottom.
nbn® FTTP Connection Box Status Lights
| Light | States and meaning | |
|---|---|---|
| Power | Off = No power. Green = Your NCB has power. It's normal if this light looks more orange/yellow than green. Red = Using backup battery power from the Power Supply unit (if you have one). |
|
| Optical | Off = Your NCB is disabled. Please call us on 1300 997 271 as we'll need to lodge a ticket with nbn®. Green = Successful network connection. This light flashes during connection activity. Red = No connection to the network. Try troubleshooting. |
|
| Alarm | Off = No devices connected. Green = No issues detected. Red = Issue detected. Try troubleshooting. |
|
| UNI-D 1/2/3/4 | Off = Nothing is plugged into this port. Only one UNI-D port is active for each nbn service - usually UNI-D 1. If you don't know which UNI-D port to use, call us on 1300 997 271 and we'll help you. Orange = A device capable of up to 1000Mbps is plugged in. This light will flash during data transfer. Green = A device capable of up to 10/100Mbps is plugged in. This light will flash during data transfer. |
|
| UNI-V 1/2 | Off = There is no nbn Fibre Phone service, or it's not currently being used. Note: Fibre Phone is no longer sold as of 23 May 2024. Green = One or more nbn Fibre phones are off the hook (typically because they are being used). This light flashes if the phone has been off the hook for more than an hour. |
|
| Update | Off = It's normla for this light to be off. Green = Your NCB is currently downloading an update with no issues. Red = Your NCB has failed to download an update. Please call us on 1300 997 271 as we'll need to lodge a ticket with nbn®. |

Where to find your nbn FTTP Connection box Serial Number
The Serial Number for your NCB is listed next to S/N on its barcode sticker.
A traceroute checks how data packets are sent to a specific address using your internet connection, taking note of each stop along the way. It's a good way to see the latency (delay) between different servers that make up the internet.
If you use PingPlotter, it will run a ping test and a traceroute at the same time.

PingPlotter on Windows
-
Download PingPlotter at: http://pingplotter.com/download
You don't need to buy a subscription, you can use the Free version. -
Open PingPlotter and hit the + (plus) icon to open a New Trace tab.
-
Type tpg.com.au or another address you want to to ping or traceroute, then hit Start.
-
Let the test run for at least 60 seconds, then hit Pause.
-
Hit the Print Screen (PrntScr) key on your keyboard to screenshot your test results. You can use CTRL+V to paste your screenshot into any text editor, image editor or email app.
PingPlotter on macOS
-
Download PingPlotter at: http://pingplotter.com/download
You don't need to buy a subscription, you can use the Free version. -
Open PingPlotter and type tpg.com.au or another address you want to ping or traceroute, then hit the Start.
-
Let the test run for at least 60 seconds, then hit Pause.
-
Use the Command ⌘+Shift+3 keys on your keyboard to screenshot your test results. You can use Command ⌘+V to paste your screenshot into any text editor, image editor or email app.
PingPlotter on iOS (iPhone/iPad)
-
Open the App Store and search for 'PingPlotter" to install PingPlotter.
You don't need to buy a subscription, you can use the Free version. -
Open PingPlotter and type tpg.com.au or another address you want to ping or traceroute, then hit Start.
-
Let the test run for at least 60 seconds, then hit Pause.
-
Hit the Share icon and select Screenshot.
-
You can choose to save your screenshot to Pictures, or share it by Mail.
Traceroute in Windows
-
Hit Search and type "cmd" into the search bar.
-
Open the Command Prompt app.
-
Type “tracert” and then hit Space on your keyboard.
-
Type the address you want to traceroute, e.g. "tracert tpg.com.au" then hit Enter on your keyboard.
-
Wait for the test to finish. A traceroute will test a maximum of 30 "hops". Each hop is a new server that the data passes through on its way to its destination. The first hop is your modem, and the last hop is the server for the address you've tracerouted.
Don't worry if some hops come up as "* * * Request timed out". Some servers deliberately ignore the data packets used for traceroute tests. -
Three latency times (in milliseconds) will be shown before the domain or IP address for each hop. The mean average of these times is considered to be the latency for that server, e.g:
"Tracing route to ftp.iinet.net.au [203.0.178.32] over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 2ms 2ms 2ms NETCOMM [10.1.1.1]
2 32ms 30ms 30ms Hop 2 [IP address]"
In this example, 32ms + 30ms + 30ms / 3 = a latency of 30.66 milliseconds for the server on Hop 2.
You can search online for a specific IP address to get a better idea of where it is. -
To copy-paste your traceroute results: Right-click in the Command Prompt window and select Mark to turn on the cursor. You can use the up/down arrow keys on your keyboard to move the cursor to the start of the text you want to copy.
Hold the Shift key and use the down/right arrow keys to highlight the text you want to copy, then hit the Enter key to copy the text.
Open Word, Notepad or any other text editor or email app and use CTRL+V to paste the copied text.
Traceroute in macOS
-
Open Finder and select Applications > Utilities, then open the Terminal app.
-
Type “traceroute” and then hit Space on your keyboard.
-
Type the address you want to traceroute, e.g. "tracert tpg.com.au", then hit Enter on your keyboard.
-
Wait for the test to finish. A traceroute will test a maximum of 30 "hops". Each hop is a new server that the data passes through on its way to its destination. The first hop is your modem, and the last hop is the server for the address you've tracerouted.

In this example, 32ms + 30ms + 30ms / 3 = a latency of 30.66 milliseconds for the server on Hop 2.
You can search online for a specific IP address to get a better idea of where it is. -
To copy-paste your traceroute results: Click and drag the cursor to select the text you want to copy, then right-click and select Copy, or hit Command ⌘+C on your keyboard.
Open TextEdit or any other text editor or email app and use Command ⌘+V to paste the copied text.
