Do your own research. The nbn PCD usually gets installed near the electricity box outside. There can be 40 metres of fibre cable from the…

No you don't need to supply a modem. nbn install the nbn NTD box. What you need is a router. A mesh system bundle like the eero 6+ contains…

Yeah put that money towards the Orbi.

You won't need the Telstra modem when you get FTTP. Plug in your Orbi router into the nbn NTD box.

**Smiths.**

Those are Netgear HFC cable modems used in the USA. They are not for FTTN. C'mon **jvGPT**.

Netgear VDSL2 modem is no longer being sold in Oz. Pickup a Telstra smart modem gen 2 or gen 3 Technicolor variant. Can you change from…

All of nbn HFC is capable of Gigabit.

Asus XD4S is dual-band so there isn't a dedicated backhaul. Anything that's tri-band or quad-band has a dedicated backhaul.

Ethernet is faster and the most stable. See if you can change from [FTTC to FTTP](https://www.nbnco.com.au/residential/upgrades/more-fibre).

Yeah it does. HFC = nbn NTD + Asus XD4S router.

Wireless mesh won't reduce your ping. Who is your nbn provider?

Yeah the Asus XD4S router is compatible with FTTP. Not all ISPs use a PPPoE login. IPoE (Automatic IP) is used by Telstra, Aussie BB,…

Yeah you need a VDSL2 modem for FTTN.

For most the setups are; FTTN, FTTB = VDSL2 modem bridged (Wi-Fi off) + Asus XD4S router. FTTC = nbn NCD + Asus XD4S router. FTTP, HFC,…

TP-Link Archer AX55, TP-Link Archer AX55 Pro and Asus RT-AX58U routers are under $300. Gigabit isn't coming to FTTC. Change to FTTP for…

Look for the TP-Link VLAN section and check that VLAN is switched off. Change back to dynamic IP and your Superloop nbn should start…

Yeah you do.

Yeah you can.

Yeah replace the ZTE with the TP-Link Deco. Are you with Exetel?

Yeah it's router to PoE switch to your cameras. Setup the VLAN in the Asus settings menu.

Yeah Deco's have a router built-in.

All Deco's are compatible with FTTP and not just the newer Deco's. FTTP = nbn NTD + TP-Link Deco S4 router.

Deco router replaces your existing setup in most cases. If you use a VoIP phone and 4G failover from your ISP the setup may change. FTTN,…

A VLAN will isolate your cameras. For PoE you need a PoE switch or PoE injector.

No.

You need to upgrade if you want to use VLANs.

Yeah a new router can improve your Wi-Fi range and Wi-Fi speed assuming your device is capable of Wi-Fi 6. I would get a 2 or 3 pack mesh…

Yeah that NetComm NF18ACV struggles with Wi-Fi speeds and range. I would get the Asus.

Asus RT-AX86U Pro is great for Gigabit. What router are you using now? 1000/100 doesn't exist yet. It is currently 1000/50.
