      they do opticomm services as well but there plans are not cheap. and they don't offer good speeds. For those looking you can find opiticomm plans under FTTH

    A word of warning for potential iinet customers,
    They are a shell of the company they once were.
    I had to abandon them after 25yrs because things were going so downhill.
    It's honestly hard to pinpoint exactly what went bad with the company but since switching to another provider it's a complete 180.

          I searched as well and couldn't find anything. The guy on the phone mentioned it when I was about to hang up, said you use your customer number. Possibly only works when you order over the phone in this case.

    I have the Ultra Cable service. Can vouch for the speeds. At $40 per month for speeds of 960 Mbps (as of right now), I have no complaints.

  • kanu666 on 13/06/2025 - 11:33

      iiNet Ultra is copper or a fibre and copper mix. You most likely can't get this since you have nbn FTTP.

    Anyone know if it's easy enough to put iiNet's modem in bridge mode (or use my existing one)? Struggling to find anything recent on whirlpool, apart from a geenral bridging guide. Running an ASUS router which has the typical PPPoE etc settings with a Telstra modem in bridge mode to ABB.

    ABB have recently increased my price because I'm on a legacy plan, so it might be a good time to vote with my wallet.

      • thisisscotts on 13/06/2025 - 11:46

        Thanks xwx. I'm in an FTTB building in Perth CBD and they've caught my attention in the past with FTTB deals, so now might be a good time to switch.

        Currently using the Telstra modem to connect down to the "nbn room" over copper. If I can plug into the eth port of the new box, I'm cautious since I've heard others have had to deal with double NAT issues (when attempting a similar thing with the Telstra modem).

        I might have to call them up to discuss (but I'm sure they'll say they can't support my setup in any way).

          • thisisscotts on 13/06/2025 - 12:59

            @xwx: Ok thanks mate, will see what I can find out!

                @xwx: After explaining the issue twice to the salesperson on the phone, she then conferred with her technical colleagues, who confirmed that I would be able to use bridge mode in the same or similar manner as I currently am (and most likely with my existing Telstra modem as bridge). So I'm proceeding with the sign up… fingers crossed I don't get burned, haha.

          I'm 99% sure it's possible. I'm on TPG which owns IINET.

          If it's Vision Networks FTTB and you are on a 250Mbps plan or faster then they give you a NTU (G.Fast modem) which plugs into the old phone line. Using an ethernet cable you plug that into the supplied router or the one you have.

          If you are on the 100Mbps FTTB plan or less then they give you a TP-Link VX420-G2h modem router which plugs into the old phone line. If it's the same as TPG then this device will be locked down (you have an admin account but they have the root account) and they will effectively control it but it can be bridged to your own router so it effectively just functions as a modem. I used to do this when I was on the 100Mbps plan because the old router (TP-Link VR1600v) had buggy Wi-Fi and I wasn't comfortable with TPG having the ability to spy on my LAN.

          See here for the default equipment:
          https://help.iinet.net.au/set-ultra-broadband-fttb

            • TightLikeThisx on 15/06/2025 - 12:17

              @xwx: Good to know. I know on the old router the root credentials were available online but my main concern was security. I didn't bother fussing around instead I just set up a bridge because the Wi-Fi used to drop on occasion. The TP-Link VR1600v was a piece of garbage. As soon as I bridged it to my router/AP all the problems were solved.

      Not sure if this will impact your use case - but I just had mine installed.

      They attended and provided a separate modem (Zyxel GM4100-B0) and connected this box to the wall. That Zyxel modem then connected to their supplied TP-Link modem/router, but using the TP-Link as a router only.

      Here's the diagram for my exact set up: https://imgur.com/qsiEhwr

      • thisisscotts on 18/06/2025 - 15:40

        Thanks mate, just had a look at your diagram (nice of you to draw it up for us!). Is the access point the TP-link? Both are labelled Zyxel.

        In my case, I'm hoping to use their supplied modem (TP-link VX420-G2h, from memory) as bridge, to my ASUS router (which does ethernet and wifi throughout my place).

          • thisisscotts on 18/06/2025 - 16:50

            @xwx: Awesome, thanks again for the info xwx.

            I haven't (yet?) received an NTU from iiNet, even though their provided VX420 modem/router has arrived. Assuming that they are installing gFast, then I'm expecting the technician will bring an NTU on Monday. However, good to know that I might be able to bypass a bridge modem completely and install my existing ASUS directly into the NTU.

              @thisisscotts: Yes the installer brought the NTU on the visit itself. I didn't draw up the diagram lol, it was from Zyxels website.

              And yes, the access point in the diagram is the TP-Link

                @Keeegs: Haha ok, gotcha. I just assumed you were a total baller and did up a diagram just for these comments.

                Thanks for the confirmation about the TP-link.

                • thisisscotts on 23/06/2025 - 13:15
                  +2

                  @thisisscotts: Came back to report that the technician visited not long ago and swapped me over to gFast (within the building) with a Zyxel GM4100 (gFast-ethernet converter).

                  I used the TP-link VX420 router that iiNet supplied me as a first step and made sure the internet was working (and is much faster than my last plan).

                  Then took a copy of the settings that were in the TP-link (PPPoE, username, password "NotRequired") and put these into my existing ASUS router. Connected the ASUS (WAN) directly to the Zyxel (LAN1) and seems like we're up and running.

                  For anyone else reading along and wanting to know how it works - think of the new Zyxel box that the technician brings on the day as your new bridge modem.

                  Thanks @xwx and @Keeegs for the assistance!

    • TightLikeThisx on 13/06/2025 - 17:48

      Ring them up. If they so no you might be able to cancel the service then resign up before 01/07 when this deal ends.

        • TightLikeThisx on 14/06/2025 - 04:02

          If you are not home for the connection appointment then you don't have an existing connection.

          Call them up and try get them to price match it or cancel before the appointment then resign up for this deal.

          TPG had a similar deal before not for existing customers which I managed to take advantage of. You just have to try sometimes.

                  Sometimes theres TPG manhole covers in the street. You could also try check for the network cabinet. Mine is right next to the NBN one.

                  The ISPs send out advertising flyers for the applicable services if you search your address on their sites.

                      What a pain.

                      Either way I would try locate the network cabinet. The techs are pretty clueless and don't have access keys so you will probably have to show them where it is when they eventually come to install it. I've got the highest TPG plan available and get 927/110. Can't complain but free for 6months on iinet would be good!

    what is vision network?

  • danielh on 19/06/2025 - 13:41

    Is this behind a CGNAT (Carrier Grade NAT) and if so, how much extra is it to not be behind one? (Assuming you even have that option).
    I'm asking as another OzBargain post that mentions the Vision Network apparently does not allow getting out of a CGNAT.

  • dnvrngts on 27/06/2025 - 20:03

    I'm confused. Is this for new customers only?
