    Are you please able to tell me how to pair/connect to the base unit. A while ago our battery ran out and we finally bought one and now it won’t connect to the base unit. And I can’t find one UA-cam video on how to do it to a TELSTRA V850 cordless phone.

    so how do you enable the 4G back up to come on straight away? the point of this $700 modem is that it should kick over to the 4G when the internet goes down with little to no interruption yet my one take 5-10 mins to switch over.

    I can connect to the internet but have limited access. I can do a google search but i can't navigate to any of the web pages, they just time out. Does this on Apple and android devices. Bank app times out yet youtube can run no problems.
    No issues like this prior to FTTP.
    Telstra can't help?

Once upon a time, Telstra was good not now. What I get a lot is phone calls from hackers and I would like to know how they got my silent phone number in India or the Philippines?

      You can restart the modem by turing it off and wait for a few minutes before turning it back on, that usually helps. If the light is still blue, you must check if your cables are on the right places, try doing a hard reset as well if you must. If still not connecting, you must call telstra, there must be a problem with the modem or the NBN.
