Guest WiFi allows you to share your internet access with friends and family who visit without giving them your main WiFi password.
- Guests can connect to your WiFi and use your monthly broadband data, so still only share the guest password with people you trust.
- Guests can't access your modem's default gateway to log into the modem settings.
- Guests can't access other computers or devices on your network, including any Network Attached Storage devices.
Set up Guest WiFi
- On a computer, tablet or smartphone that's connected to your modem, open your web browser and go to http://10.1.1.1
- Log in with the default username admin and default password - on the TG-1, this is “admin”. On the TG-789, this is a unique password printed on the sticker on the base of the modem next to "Password".
If you have changed your password from the default, use you custom password instead.
- You'll see the dashboard. Select the Wireless panel.
- This will bring up the Wireless settings. In the left-hand column, you'll see an option that's your default WiFi network name with "-Guest" at the end. Select it.
Note that the TG-789 will have a Guest network for both the 2.4GHz B/G/N WiFi network and the 5GHz AC WiFi network. If you're not sure that your guests will have devices which are compatible with the newer 5GHz AC WiFi network, set up the 2.4GHz network instead.
- Scroll down slightly. Underneath Access Point, make sure the Enable switch is set to ON.
- Enter the following details. We recommend that you write down your Guest WiFi name and password and keep it somewhere safe for future reference.
SSID: Enter the desired network name for your Guest WiFi. We recommend keeping "guest" in the name so you can easily tell which one your guests should be connecting to.
Security mode: WPA2 PSK
Password: Enter the desired password for your Guest WiFi. Anyone on your Guest WiFi can still use your internet quota, so you should always set a password and only share it with people you trust.
- Click Save to finish. Your guests should now be able to see your Guest WiFi as an available network and connect using your Guest WiFi password.
Note: If you'd like guests to be able to connect to the Guest WiFi via WPS, you'll need to disable WPS on your main WiFi network before the settings will allow you to enable WPS on your Guest WiFi.

What is the modem login password and why should I change it?
Your modem login password is used to log in to the modem's default gateway where you can change your modem settings.
If you share a house or you give your WiFi password to guests, changing your modem password from the default can prevent people connected to your home network from accessing or changing your modem settings.
IMPORTANT: If you use Remote Management on your modem (if available) changing your modem login password is vital to maintain the security of your home network and services.
Forgotten custom modem login passwords
If you've forgotten a custom modem login password, you can factory reset your modem to return it to the default. Please note that a factory reset will remove all custom settings from a modem, including your internet service configuration, Netphone (VoIP) settings and any custom WiFi network names and passwords.

Pocket WiFi® 4 |
Pocket WiFi® 4
Setup
- Insert the SIM into the slot with its chip side facing down and the notched side facing out.
- Use the supplied power cable to connect the Pocket WiFi® 4 to an electrical socket. You’ll see a charge indicator on the screen.
- Once fully charged, press and hold the Power button on the side of the Pocket WiFi®4 4G until it lights up.
Note: The device automatically searches for the mobile network after it is powered on and the LED signal light will turn white. - Connect the Pocket WiFi® 4 to your devices to access the Internet. Refer to the Reminder Card in the box or remove the back cover to view the default Wi-Fi name (SSID) and password (WIFI KEY). Note: You can also connect a computer to the Pocket WiFi® 4 using the Micro USB cable included. You’d be using a Local Area Network (LAN), instead of Wi-Fi, so it should automatically connect.
Changing the WiFi name and password
- On a device that's connected to your Pocket WiFi®4, open your web browser and go to https://pocket.wifi or https://192.168.0.1.
Note: If you’re connected to the Pocket WiFi® 4 using the Micro USB cable from your PC, you can also open the dashboard by clicking on the shortcut icon on your desktop. - Log in with the default password “admin”, or use your custom password.
Note: If you’ve changed the admin password but don’t remember it, you can reset it by factory resetting the device. - From the Pocket WiFi tab, select Wi-Fi and then click Security.
- Enter your desired network name in the SSID field.
- Enter your desired new password in the Key field.
- Hit Save to finish.
Troubleshooting
Unable to connect to the Internet
- Check that your Pocket WiFi® 4 is turned on and has sufficient charge
Press the Power button on your Pocket WiFi. If indicators light up, your Pocket WiFi®4 is in sleep mode. If there is no response after you press the Power button, your device is powered off. Press and hold the Power button to power it back on.
- Restart the Pocket WiFi® 4
Turn the Pocket WiFi off and on and then try reconnecting your device. If this doesn’t work, turn the device you’re trying to connect off and back on and then try reconnecting to the Wi-Fi signal.
- Check the number of connected devices
The Pocket WiFi® 4 can handle up to 10 connected devices.
Coverage
Check the status display on your Pocket WiFi® 4 to see how many bars of coverage you're getting. If you’re inside a building and receiving poor coverage, try placing the Pocket WiFi near a window.
If the Pocket WiFi® 4 constantly jumps between 3G and 4G, you can change the network preference:
- Open your web browser and go to https://pocket.wifi or https://192.168.0.1.
Note: If you’re connected to the Pocket WiFi®4 using the Micro USB cable from your PC, you can also open the dashboard by clicking on the shortcut icon on your desktop. - Log in with the default password “admin”, or use your custom password.
- From the Pocket WiFi tab, select Mobile Broadband and then click Network.
- Select an option from the network settings window and press Save.
Factory reset your Pocket WiFi® 4
This is recommended as a last resort.
- While the Pocket WiFi® 4 is on, take off the back cover and find the reset button.
- Using a pen or paper clip, press the rest button and hold it down for 5 seconds, until it restarts.
- Replace the battery cover. Once the device restarts, it will be restored to factory settings, including the WiFi network name (SSID) and password (Wi-Fi Key).
Creating a backup of your mailbox is required when migrating your hosted email services.
Exporting a backup
- Open the Mac Mail app.
- Select the contents of the mailbox by clicking on the top folder, holding down the Shift key, then clicking on the bottom folder.
- While these folders are selected, hit Mailbox > Export Mailbox in the top menu bar.
- Choose or create a destination folder to save your backup, then click Choose.
- Mail exports the mailboxes as .mbox packages. If you have previously exported a mailbox, Mail won’t overwrite the existing .mbox file. Instead, it will create a new .mbox file, e.g. “My Mailbox 2.mbox.”
- Mail won’t notify you when the backup is completed. For larger mailboxes, it’s best to leave the program running overnight to ensure all data is exported.
Once your backup is exported, we recommend that you import the backup to ensure it contains all of your files and folders. Once you have done this, it’s safe to remove the existing version of the mailbox and replace it with the details from your new email host.
Importing your backup
- To import the backup, select File > Import Mailboxes.
- Select Files in mbox format and click Continue.
- Select the folder containing your exported backup, then click Choose.
- Once the import has completed, click Done.
- The imported data will be available under On My Mac in the Import folder. You can now drag folders and messages from the import mailbox to new or existing mailboxes, then delete the Import mailbox.

To find who hosts your DNS records, you can perform a Whois lookup using the links below. When a result is returned, check the Name Server fields.
- For Australian Domain Names ending with .au, use auDA Whois lookup:
- For International Domain Names ending .com, .net, or .org etc., use ICANN Lookup:
Understanding your Whois results
If the Whois result contains references to iinethosting.net.au or westnethosting.com.au, your DNS is hosted with us and can be managed via your Hosting Control panel:
- https://cp.iinethosting.net.au (iiNet customers)
- https://admin.westnethosting.com.au (Westnet customers)
For more information, see our Hosting Control panel FAQ.
If the Whois result does not reference iiNet or Westnet, you may be able to locate the contact details for your DNS provider by pasting a name server into a search engine. Use a query like ‘Who hosts ‘ns1.examplename.net’ for the best result.
If you need help, please call our Domains and Hosting team on 1300 378 638.
It's important that you can contact emergency services (police, fire and ambulance) should the need arise. So, even outside our coverage area you'll be able to call emergency services using any other available mobile network (your phone will show something similar to 'SOS only' or 'Emergency calls only' when you do). Emergency calls should only be used to request help from an emergency service organisation in a life threatening and/or time critical event.
There are 2 emergency call numbers you can dial from your mobile:
- 000 within Australia
- 112 both within and outside Australia
You can use the above numbers to contact emergency service organisations, including police, fire and ambulance. There's more information about emergency calls on the federal government's triple zero website. Check out the Australian Government’s Access Hub if you are hearing or speech impaired.
- If you dial 112 while you're in a coverage area overseas, you'll be connected to the emergency service for that country.
- In Australia emergency calls to Triple Zero can be made with or without an active SIM in your phone.
- If your phone does not have access to the iiNet network, you may still be able to make an emergency call on another mobile network, which is why you may see 'Emergency calls only' or similar on the screen.
- Emergency calls can be made wherever your phone can see any mobile telecommunications network, however if you are travelling in a rural or remote area you should not rely upon your mobile phone to make an emergency call as there may be no mobile telecommunications network available, instead you should have other means of communications such as a satellite phone and for emergencies, carry an emergency beacon.
- When calling an emergency call number, information such as your number, name and service location (where available) will be disclosed to the emergency call person (the operator) and the emergency service organisations, regardless of your caller ID settings.
Location information
Location information is critical in providing emergency services to provide the necessary service. In particular, the ability to provide enhanced location information is important where the caller may be unable to identify their location.
In the event of making an emergency call we will supply relevant location information to the emergency call person and the relevant emergency service organisation (police, fire or ambulance) to enable them to corroborate your location. We use a range of technical solutions to do this and they are constantly being reviewed and improved.
These include:
- Push Mobile Location Information (MoLI). MoLI is the location of the cell site from which a mobile call to Triple Zero is made. This is supplied to emergency services for all emergency calls.
- Advanced Mobile Location (AML). AML is technology that allows mobile devices to send a location estimate when a call is made to Triple Zero. This improved outcomes for mobile callers in Australia and has the potential to save lives, as it is doing in the countries in which it has already been deployed.
For more information about AML, head to the federal government's triple zero website.
What it costs
There is no charge for calls made to emergency services regardless of whether your service is active or inactive.
