How to set up TG-789 Broadband Gateway for nbn HFC
You'll need to plug in your modem 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 nbn Connection Box (NCB) – this will be connected to a cable wall socket, which may be near another cable wall socket for any cable TV service. You probably already have a modem plugged in from your last internet service. Unplug any old modem from the NCB and power outlet.
If your NCB is missing, please call us on 1300 023 575. -
Use the power cable to connect your modem's Power port to a power outlet.
Your NCB should already be connected to a power outlet - if not, plug it in. -
Use the Ethernet cable to connect your modem's red WAN port to your NCB's yellow UNI-D1 port or 2.5G port.

Turn on both power outlets and press your modem's Power button.

- If you have extra Ethernet cables, you can connect up to 4 devices to your modem’s yellow LAN ports.
- Open your web browser and go to: https://10.1.1.1
-
Log in with the default username and password found on your modem's barcode sticker. If you have custom login details, use those instead.
