Modem compatibility
To work on TPG nbn Wireless, your modem must:
- Be nbn-ready and able to support your nbn plan speed
- Support PPPoE connections by Ethernet WAN
For a list of modems tested by our team, see nbn BYO modem requirements.
General nbn® Wireless setup guide for any modem
All modems are different. If this advice doesn’t work for your modem, check the manufacturer’s website for a guide on how to plug in and enter the TPG settings.
- Find your nbn Connection Box (NCB) – this will be installed near the wall socket that connects to your nbn Wireless antenna. Unplug any old modem from the nbn Connection Box and power outlet.
- Use an Ethernet cable to connect your modem's WAN or LAN/WAN port to your NCB's UNI-D1 port.
Our email/SMS will tell you if you need to use a different UNI-D port. - Use the power cable to connect your modem's Power port to a power outlet, then turn it on.
If your modem has a power button or switch, turn it on.
The default WiFi name (SSID) and password can be found on your modem’s barcode sticker.
Connect a device to your modem. You can use an Ethernet cable to connect a device to one of the LAN or Ethernet ports, or connect via WiFi.- On your connected device, open your web browser and go to your modem’s gateway address (e.g. http://192.168.1.1). The gateway address and login details can be found on the barcode sticker
Modems may have a login username and password, or just a password. - Make sure your modem has the following settings. If you’re not sure how to do this, check the manufacturer’s website for a guide.
Mode/Modulation: WAN
Connection Type: PPPoE
- You’ll need to enter your TPG username and password for the PPPoE connection. Your username is in emails from us about your TPG order, and on your TPG invoice.
If you forgot your password, you can reset it. - Save your settings and wait 5-10 minutes for your modem to connect.
- You should now be online. If you can’t view a website or notice a red or unlit Internet light on your modem, call us on 1300 997 271 for help.
We’re fully trained on TPG modems, but please note that there may be limited support for your BYO modem.

Here's how to check your basic Wi-Fi settings on a TPG modem. This will make sure Wi-Fi is turned on, confirm your Wi-Fi name and password, make sure your Wi-Fi name isn't hidden, and make sure any band steering is turned on.
Band steering is a feature that lets your devices automatically switch between 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and 5GHz Wi-Fi for the best Wi-Fi signal.
Don't have a TPG modem? Check the manufacturer's website for a guide.

If you suspect your phone number has been stolen, you should take action as soon as possible.
Someone might have stolen your mobile number if you suddenly can't use your mobile service, or you see "SOS" instead of reception bars.
Select one of the links below to jump to a query:
- What to do if you suspect your mobile number has been stolen

What to do if you suspect your mobile number has been stolen
-
Check your if your mobile service has Ported Out status in My Account.
-
Check your email for any notifications from TPG about a mobile service transfer.
-
Contact us as soon as possible.
We also recommend that you:
- Contact your bank or financial institution ASAP and tell them someone might be committing fraud using your details;
- Change your passwords for important accounts like your bank, email and social media;
- Report any fraud to local police or the Australian Federal Police;
- Report any cybercrime involving identity theft or online fraud to the Australian Cyber Security Centre;
- Contact IDCARE on 1300 432 273 if you want help with identity crime or cyber security;
- Report the activity to Scamwatch.
How someone can steal your mobile number
If a criminal has your personal information, they can steal your mobile number in a couple of ways:
- An unauthorised port - the criminal contacts a new telco and pretends to be you, sets up an account and ports your number.
- A SIM swap - the criminal contacts your current telco pretending to be you and requests a new SIM that has your number.
Once a criminal has your number, they can receive SMS verification codes. This means they can get access to services such as your bank, email and social media.
How we can help
If someone ported your number without your consent, we can reverse the port.
If someone made a SIM swap without your consent, we can deactivate the SIM and provide you a new one.
Before a mobile number is ported, TPG carries out additional validation checks to ensure the port is authorised. We send a unique verification code via SMS to the affected mobile number. This verification code is required to authorise a porting request, which helps to protect our customers from having their mobile numbers stolen.
