Router compatibility

[chrisyangnh]

Hi there, anyone know if the modem 'ASUS TUF Gaming AX5400 router" is compatible with TPG's FTBB NBN plan? If you do, how do you configure the settings to make the router to connect to the network? Many thanks.

Hi @chrisyangnh . The Asus has no RJ11 port to connect to FTTB. To get full use from the Asus, your existing router has to be put into bridge mode. The Asus WAN port then connects to a LAN port on the existing router.

What is the model of your existing router?

My existing router is TP-link AC1600 Archer VR 1600v. Also, how do I enter the bridge mode? Thank you so much.
