What are Telstra's nbn® settings?

These are the general settings you’ll need to connect to the nbn through Telstra with third-party equipment. They may have different names depending on the modem manufacturer and model.

Settings for all connection types

These settings are required regardless of the type of nbn connection you have:

Internet Connection Type/Protocol: IPoE/DHCP/Automatic
VLAN ID/Tagging: Blank/No/0
IP Configuration: Dynamic/obtain IP address automatically.

Settings for FTTN/B

These settings are required for fibre to the node and fibre to the basement connections:

Seamless Rate Adaption (SRA): Enabled
VDSL2 Profile: 17a
G.Vector: Enabled
Non-standard G.Vector: disabled
G.INP: Enabled

Good to know

Some modems may not have all these settings, but modems capable of VDSL2 and purchased in Australia should come pre-configured to work on FTTN or FTTB.

Important

An incorrectly configured modem may cause connection issues and we can’t remotely access or run diagnostics on BYO modems. For more help, refer to your modem's user guide or contact the manufacturer.
