What are Telstra's nbn® settings?

These are the general settings you’ll need to connect to the nbn through Telstra with third-party equipment. They may have different names depending on the modem manufacturer and model. Please consult the device manufacturer for more information.

Settings for all connection types

These settings are required regardless of the type of nbn connection you have:

Internet Connection Type/Protocol: IPoE/DHCP/Automatic
VLAN ID/Tagging: Blank/No/0
IP Configuration: Dynamic/obtain IP address automatically
No Username or password.

Settings for FTTN/B

These settings are required for fibre to the node and fibre to the basement connections.

Seamless Rate Adaption (SRA): Enabled
VDSL2 Profile: 17a
G.Vector: Enabled
Non-standard G.Vector: disabled
G.INP: Enabled

Some modems may not have all these settings, but modems capable of VDSL2 and purchased in Australia should come pre-configured to work on FTTN/B.

Important:

An incorrectly configured modem may cause connection issues and we can’t provide support for your third party device.
