How to set up D-Link DSL-245GE for nbn HFC
You'll need to plug in your D-Link DSL-245GE AC1200 Wi-Fi Gigabit Router and change some settings to get it working with TPG nbn HFC.

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 Device (NCD) – you probably already have a modem plugged in from your last internet service. Unplug any old modem from the NCD and power outlet.
If your NCD is missing, please call us on 1300 023 575. -
Use the Ethernet cable to connect your modem’s yellow LAN/WAN port to your NCD's UNI-D1 port or 2.5G port.

Use the power cable to connect your modem's Power port to a power outlet. Press your modem's ON/OFF button to turn it on.
- To connect devices to the WiFi, you'll find the default WiFi name and password on your modem's barcode sticker.
- If you have extra Ethernet cables, you can connect up to 3 devices to your modem’s yellow LAN ports.
-
Open your web browser and go to: https://192.168.1.1 or https://dlinkrouter.local

Log in with the default password found on your modem's barcode sticker. If you have a custom password, use that instead.

Your TPG username can be found in emails from us about your TPG order. If you've forgotten your password, reset your password. -
