Please note: Your 5G Home Broadband service is only for use at the address nominated on your application. If you've moved home, please see Moving your TPG services and contact us to make arrangements.

 

 

  1.  Ensure that no cable is connected to the WAN or DSL port
  2.  Access the modem page to check if the SIM card status is active. If it's still not detected, reset the modem else please call us at 1300 994 533
  3. Turn the modem/router off for 10 seconds before turning it back on. Wait for atleast 2-3 minutes until the light settles, then check your connection
  4. If your modem light indicates a low signal, move your modem to another location, ideally near a window and away from direct sunlight.
Note: If your modem's signal lights remain off or red after rebooting, please call us on 1300 994 533 for assistance.

      5. If you're testing on a WiFi device, stand next to your modem to rule out any WiFi signal issues. Move further away and monitor the WiFi signal strength.

 

      6. If you lose your WiFi connection in certain parts of your home, see our guide on Improving WiFi Signals.

 

      7. If you can view websites on some devices but not others, see our guide on Browsing Issues.

 

 

 

If you still can't get online, please call us on 1300 994 533 for further assistance.
