CONNECT TO YOUR
STEP 3
SHINY NEW MODEM
USING CABLES? (RECOMMENDED)
To use your connection to its full potential, you should connect using Ethernet.
Grab the Ethernet cable with yellow connectors. Connect one end of the cable to the yellow
Ethernet Port on your shiny new modem and the other to the back of your computer.
DSL
PREFER WIFI?
Just so you know, WiFi is a slower
technology than NBN using Ethernet
cables, so choosing WiFi might mean
you're not using your connection to
its full potential. But if you want to
connect wirelessly, here's how!
1
Locate the WiFi settings on your
computer or other device. These will
vary depending on the gadget you're
connecting to. Give us a shout if
you're having trouble finding them.
2
Enter the WiFi Network Name (SSID)
or select it from the list of available
networks, then enter the Password
that's on your WiFi card.

these settings, your details will be
different to what is printed on your

it will change back to the WiFi Network
Name and Password printed on the
WiFi card we sent you.
