TANGERINE BYO Fixed Wireless Router Modem Instructions
Wireless Connection
Step 1
Locate the nbn® Network Termination Device (also known as nbn® Connection box) that has been installed inside your property.
Step 2
Ensure that the power cable is securely in place and that the POWER, STATUS and ODU lights are on and solid green. You should see at least one signal strength light on (this may be flashing).
If the STATUS or ODU lights are off or showing red, please contact our support team.
Step 3
Now look on the under side of the nbn® Connection box where you can see the Uni-D ports surrounded by yellow.
Using an ethernet network cable connect your router from its WAN port to the relevant Uni-D port on the nbn® Connection box. We generally activate the next available Uni-D port – starting with Uni-D 1. We will detail your Uni-D port number in our emails to you.
Step 4
Connect a computer or laptop to your BYO router via a cable or by Wi-Fi and access the router configuration page. If you are unsure how to do this, please consult the router user guide.
Step 5
Most routers will provide a Quick Start Guide or Setup Wizard – please try and follow these steps. Ensure that your router is configured in WAN mode and encapsulation is set to PPPoE. On most devices you should leave all other settings as default. Then configure 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 6
After you have successfully configured 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 flashing). 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.
