TANGERINE BYO Router HFC Connections
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1
Locate the NBN Connection Box that has been installed inside your property.
Step 2
Ensure that this the NBN Connection Box is connected using the white HFC cable
to the cable wall socket. This should have been completed during the NBN
activation appointment.
Step 3
Ensure that power is connected to the NBN Connection Box. The POWER,
DOWNSTREAM, UPSTREAM and ONLINE lights should be on.
Step 4
Use a network cable to connect your router from the WAN port on the back of
the NBN Connection box to the WAN port on your router.
Step 5
Connect a computer or laptop to your BYO router via a cable or by WIFI and
access the router configuration page. If you are unsure how to do this, please
consult the router user guide.
Step 6
Most routers will provide a Quick Start Guide or Setup Wizard – please try and
follow these steps. Ensure that your router is configured in WAN mode and
encapsulation is set to PPPoE. On most devices you should leave all other
settings as default. Then configure your BYO router using the ISP username and
password that we will have emailed and SMS’d to you. Due to the number of
router brands available it is hard to give precise setup information here. We
recommend consulting your router user guide or speaking to the manufacturer of
your device.
Step 7
After you have successfully configured your BYO router please wait a couple of
minutes for it to connect to the network. After a couple of minutes you should
see the authentication light on the router become lit and steady (not
flashing). The authentication light is often labelled ‘Internet’ or ‘www’ or
‘Web’. Please consult your router user guide if you are unsure which light is
the authentication light.
