Troubleshooting incoming calls for nbn Phone & Netphone
If you can't get calls on your nbn® phone or Netphone service, these steps will help you identify the issue.
nbn® Phone and Netphone are VoIP phone services that work over the internet.
- Is your phone service still new? We'll send you and email and SMS when it's ready to use.
If you're moving an existing phone number to iiNet: After your internet is connected, it can take up to 5 days to transfer your number. During this time you can make calls using a temporary number, but you won't get calls. - Is your internet working? Your phone service can't work without internet. You can check your address for an internet outage or planned maintenance on our Network Status page.
- Find your modem and make sure your phone and all cables are plugged in securely and not damaged. Replace any damaged cables.
Note: If your phone is damaged, please replace it or contact the seller for a warranty claim. - Make sure your phone has power. Wireless phones may have batteries that need to be recharged or replaced.
- Turn off your modem’s power outlet for at least 5 minutes.
- Turn the outlet back on and wait for your modem’s lights to settle, then try to make a call.
- If you still can't get calls, please use an alternative phone service to call us on 13 22 58 for further assistance.
Note: If you have no access to a working phone service, please email support@iinet.net.au.
