Hi@stevet1010,

 

With FTTB use the DSL port on the VR1600 ( not the WAN port). 

Try plugging in the line cord from the wall socket to the DSL port.

 

Here's some helpful info.

"
Read our TPG Community article on how to set up your NBN FTTB service. The video is followed by a step-by-step guide. Visit https://link.tpg.com.au/FTTN/B "
