Connecting Mesh Router Direct to NBN (FTTP)

LukeM1 — Tue, 03 May 2022 13:10:53 GMT

I have NBN to the premises (as in I have the direct NBN box in my pantry). Can I connect this directly to the google router without having to pass through a modem ? I have heard this can be done - but it doesn't seem to work.

No, it's a router only, not a modem, you need to plug it into the black (usually Arris brand) NBN-supplied modem. You can find some more info here: https://www.letsbemates.com.au/mate/faq/do-i-need-an-nbn-compatible-modemrouter/

Hi, everyone.
Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.

Hi, everyone.
As we haven't had any activity here recently I'm going to go ahead and close the thread. If you have more to add, feel free to start a new discussion.
Thanks
