Configuring Billion Modem for SpinTel NBN

How do you know if your Billion modem is compatible with nbn?

There are 2 different types of ports you need to check whether your modem is compatible with the type of nbn service that you have on your premise.

1. DSL port - often grey in colour, uses RJ11 cable. This is the same as the old telephone cable you would use to plug your home phone into the wall socket.

2. WAN port - Also known as the internet port that uses RJ-45 Ethernet cable to connect your Billion modem to the nbn connection device.

Some modems have both of these ports, and some only have one. To identify which port is required for your nbn type of service, check the table below.

How Do You Set up Your Billion Modem?

1. If there is no NBN Connection Box installed, connect the DSL port on the back of your Billion modem to your phone wall socket using a phone cable.
2. If there is an NBN Connection Box installed, connect to the WAN/Internet port on the back of your modem to your NBN Connection Box.
3. Connect any of the LAN ports on the back of your modem to your PC (optional)
4. Plug the NBN connection box, if there’s any, to the power socket
