Router_ ASUS RT-AX53U will this work with FTTN?

[KatieLou]

I am thinking about purchasing two ASUS routers.

Can I be assured that it will work with my FTTN connection before I purchase it.

I'm looking to buy two of them so i can connect two into a mesh at home.

Thanks

Hi @KatieLou 

The model you mentioned is a router only device.

For the NBN FTTN technology, you need a VDSL modem/router.

If you are under the NBN bundled with VoIP plan, then you need to configure it with the VLAN ID 2 and PPPoE connection.

If data only plan, then you can just configure it with the PPPoE connection.

Hi BasilDV,

I hope you are well and wondering if you can help me with this:

I am thinking change my ISP to TPG with nbn 100 and get this router ASUS RT-AX53U. The connecion type I have is HFC. From its specs the router does support wifi 6, pppoe and has gigabit ports. So it should compatible with TPG's internet, am I right?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
TY
