      Sorry, I thought I’d explained it a few times

      It’s what they call the “connection device” I’m waiting on. It’s the little NBN branded box that plugs into the wall and has a single Ethernet port that you then plug your router into which gets everything working

      I don’t think you need one if you have FTTP, but I only have FTTC

        Huh! There you go lol! I had no idea, never worked in IP services so I’m lacking in that area haha!

        Yeah I’ve only lived in areas that are fttp, so I missed that you require an extra techy doodad for fttc! My bad!

          Nah it’s all good! It’s a pain, and ngl I’m jealous. I reeeeeeaaaaaalllllly want FTTP. The last place has HFC, which also needs a box so I’m used to it

            As someone on gigabit HFC that I max out I would be jealous of your FTTP and its potential.

        For FTTP they install a hardwired box on a wall inside your house.
