What if there’s no power outlet near my telephone wall socket?
In some cases, you may need to use a double adaptor, extension cord or power
board to reach your nearest power outlet, as long as these are safe. Avoid using an
extended telephone cable in its place, as this can slow the speed of your connection.
Will I be able to use my telecommunications devices during setup?
Plugging in the
nbn
™
connection device will temporarily disconnect your existing
services, including your internet, telephone device(s) and medical, fire and security
alarms. This means it’s important you have an alternative form of communication
handy during setup, such as a charged mobile phone.
Take the
nbn
™
power cord
A
supplied with the
nbn
™
connection device
and plug
one end into the port labelled ‘
A’. Plug the other end into a nearby power outlet
and switch on.
Read the warning sticker covering the ports of the
nbn
™
connection device
,
then remove and dispose of it.
Check the indicator light panel on the top of the
nbn
™
connection device
is visible
– if not, slide the cover open.
