If you are experiencing frequent dropouts, the first step is to check whether the issue is affecting one device or all devices connected to your service.

If only one device is dropping out

The issue is likely related to that device rather than your nbn® connection. Try the following:

  • Check and replace any network cables used by the device.
  • If the device connects over Wi Fi, make sure it is within range of the Wi-Fi router.
  • If possible, connect the device directly to the modem using a network cable to see if the issue continues.

If all devices are dropping out at the same time

This may indicate a problem with your nbn® service. Before a fault can be raised, we recommend basic checks such as:

  • Keeping a record of the dates, times, and how long the dropouts last.
  • For FTTN, FTTB, or FTTC services, making sure the modem is connected directly to the primary phone wall socket with no filters, splitters, or extension cables.
  • Trying a different modem, if available, to rule out equipment issues.

If dropouts continue after these checks, contactTechnical Support or chat via Live Chat so the connection can be investigated further.
