Setting up home internet should feel simple, not confusing. But with different nbn® connection types used across Australia, choosing the right modem or router can sometimes feel overwhelming.
The good news is that once you know your nbn® technology type, finding compatible equipment becomes much easier.
Whether you’re moving house, upgrading your internet, or replacing an older modem, the right hardware can improve your connection stability, Wi-Fi coverage, and overall online experience. Some homes only need a router, while others require a modem-router with features such as VDSL2 support.
Yomojo offers a range of reliable and easy-to-set-up devices designed for Australian households using major nbn® technologies. From compact Wi-Fi solutions for apartments to mesh systems for larger homes, there’s an option to suit different internet needs and lifestyles.
An nbn®-compatible modem is a device that can properly connect to your specific nbn® technology type and deliver internet access throughout your home.
Each technology connects differently, which means the equipment required can vary from one household to another. Some homes need a modem-router combo, while others only require a router connected to an nbn® connection box.
For example:
FTTN connections typically require a VDSL2 modem
FTTP homes usually only need a router
Using incompatible hardware may result in slower speeds, unstable connections, or setup problems.
Understanding your nbn® technology type is the first step in choosing the correct equipment.
FTTP connections use fibre optic cable directly to your home. An nbn® connection box is usually installed inside the property.
You only need a router connected via Ethernet cable.
FTTN uses copper phone lines from the street node to your premises. This technology requires a VDSL2 modem-router.
Without VDSL2 compatibility, the connection will not work properly.
FTTC services include an nbn® connection device installed inside the home. A compatible router connects directly to this device.
HFC connections use a coaxial cable and nbn® connection box. A standard router is typically all that’s required.
Fixed Wireless homes receive internet through an outdoor antenna connected to an indoor network device. A router then distributes the connection throughout the home.
