How to set up TP-Link Archer VR900 for nbn FTTC
You'll need to plug in your modem and change some settings to get it working with TPG nbn FTTC.
- 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 yellow Gateway port.
-
Use the power cable to connect the Power port on your modem to a power outlet. Press the Power button on the side of your modem 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.
