1 Welcome to your new ACN nbn Broadband Service This guide details the steps to follow when setting up and installing your new ACN nbn equipment. If you ordered an ACN nbn + Phone Bundle service you should have also received an ACN VoIP package, which includes the equipment required to set up the phone component of your nbn + Phone service. This includes a separate user guide for the VoIP service. It is important that you complete the set-up of your ACN nbn Broadband service prior to attempting the set-up of the Phone component of your Service. For further details, refer to the VoIP Phone Service User Guide. Set-up Check List Before you start setting up your ACN nbn Broadband there are three important points we need you to check. Without these, your new service may not work. 1 Ensure a NBN Co supplied Network Termination Device (NTD) has been installed. 2 3 This device, installed by a NBN Co technician, provides connectivity to the nbn fibre network. It should be mounted on the wall at your premise. If your NBN Co Technician appointment has not yet been completed or you cannot locate your NBN Co NTD, please contact ACN Customer Service before proceeding. Check that your NTD is powered on and has an active nbn network connection. Confirm that both the Power and Optical LED lights on the NTD are both GREEN. If either or both of the LED lights are not GREEN, please refer to the Troubleshooting Section of this Guide. Check that you have received an from ACN advising that your nbn service is active. This is sent to the address provided at sign-up, approximately 1-2 business days after the NBN Co Technician has completed the installation work. This confirms that your new ACN nbn Broadband Service is ready for set up.

If the LED lights still fail to turn on, please move to Step 6. Are you trying to connect via Wi Fi? 5. Is the LAN LED light on the TP-LINK Router GREEN? 4.
