Troubleshooting nbn FTTC for Dropouts

  1. Check your address on nbn®'s Network status and outages page or visit our Network Status page to see if there are any known issues in your area.
  2. Log in to Toolbox and run an nbn service test. We'll contact you if a fault is detected.
  3. Turn off your modem and leave it off for at least 10 seconds.
  4. Turn your modem back on and wait for the modem lights to settle. Continue monitoring for dropouts.
  5. When your connection drops out, check other devices connected to your modem via WiFi or Ethernet cable to see if they've dropped out, too.
  6. If devices connected via Ethernet cable stay online when devices connected via WiFi drop out, switch to troubleshooting WiFi Dropouts.
  7. Ensure your modem is connected correctly, with cables in good condition and plugged in securely.
