Hi

I am having hard time setting up a Cobra DSL-5300 to work with my NBN FTC. Any suggestions ?

Hi @mihailzamfir,

Welcome to the community!

Can you post a screen shot of your modem/router's settings configuration?

In case you need a reference for the required modem/router's settings.

Please visit this link: NBN modem/router's general settings.

Hi,

I have attached a few screenshots of the setup. The end result is (i.e I don't get layer 3 working - I suspect authentication error but am 100% positive I've got the corect username and password) :

Cable Status:	Connected
Connection Type:	PPPoE
Network Status:	Disconnected

Hi @mihailzamfir,

Have you tried re-entering your TPG Username and password to the configuration page? Another option is to factory reset the modem/router and re-enter your TPG username and password without using the domain '@tpg.com.au'

Let me know how it will go.

Cheers!

If this is for FTTC you need to change the WAN Access Type to Ethernet WAN

Then Enable the VLAN in Triple Play

Go to Settings -> Internet -> VLAN

Enable VLAN and use 2 for Internet VLAN ID and Save it

Hi,

Problem was fixed long time ago by hardcoding the speed / duplex; it looks like NBN box and the WAN Giga port on the router didn't agree on the duplex. Trial and error and voila ! Really impressed with the perfromance of this router .
