Asus DSL-AX82U replacement for failing TPG supplied modem/router on FTTN service

Hi,

Can a Asus DSL-AX82U be used as a replacement for the TPG supplied modem/router on FTTN service.

Ours is quite old and failing.  Is there a better option? I'd like to use an Asus modem/router ideally.

Also if you could direct me to the config details, that would be awesome.  Cheers.

Hi @forrestrees 

 

You can use any third party modem/router as long as they are compatible with your NBN technology.

 

Also, if you are under a bundled plan (Internet and VoIP), then the only service that will work is the internet as the VoIP settings are embedded to the TPG firmware.

 

You may check this article for some info:

Use the settings  in the first part of the thread.
