If it's anything like FTTN, you have to use the supplied router. I had FTTN installed a fortnight ago. I had sync for two hours on a Draytek Vigor 130, then it dropped. Telstra said third party devices aren't allowed, and the port will be re-enabled when the Telstra tech comes to complete the install with the Telstra-supplied modem. But annoying as they had told me during ordering that I COULD use my own VDSL modem. <div><br></div><div>The four weeks between NBN and Telstra visits for FTTN is kinda rediculous too. Very glad I had a spare Inplace for NBN to use!<span></span><br><br>On Saturday, 31 October 2015, Skeeve Stevens <<a href="mailto:skeeve%2Bausnog@theispguy.com">skeeve+ausnog@theispguy.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hah...<div><br></div><div>Anyone know about the NTU/CPE situation?</div><div><br></div><div>Can I just use a Juniper SRX110-VA which does VDSL... or will there be some sort of NTU and then ethernet handoff?</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><font color="#002060"><font color="#1F497D"><p style="margin:0px;color:rgb(32,73,125)"><br>...Skeeve</p><p style="margin:0px;color:rgb(32,73,125)"><br>--</p><p style="margin:0px;color:rgb(32,73,125)">Skeeve Stevens - The ISP Guy - Internet Provider SME</p></font></font><font color="#002060"><font color="#1F497D"><p style="margin:0px;color:rgb(32,73,125)">Email: <a href="javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','skeeve@theispguy.com');" target="_blank">skeeve@theispguy.com</a> ; Cell: +61(0)414 753 383</p></font></font></font><div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><font color="#20497d">Skype: skeeve; </font><span style="color:rgb(32,73,125)">Blog: <a href="http://theispguy.com/" target="_blank">TheISPGuy.com</a> ; Facebook: </span><font color="#20497d"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/theispguy" target="_blank">TheISPGuy</a></font></font></div><div><font color="#002060"><font color="#1F497D" face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><p style="margin:0px;color:rgb(32,73,125)">Linkedin: <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/skeeve" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">/in/skeeve</a> ; <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">Expert360: </span><a href="https://expert360.com/profile/d54a9" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">Profile</a></p></font></font></div></div><div><blockquote type="cite" style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

Wouldn't be the first time.<br>
<br>
I had a customer swear til they were blue in the face that the<br>
property they were buying would have NBN fibre installed (i.e.<br>
greenfield).<br>
<br>
Couldn't find any reference to an NBN build, so I asked him to provide<br>
a shred of evidence to back up his claim. None provided.<br>
<br>
Turns out it was Telstra Velocity, so same problem as TPG Fibre.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately it dilutes the brand, and the worse-off at the end of<br>
the day because of it.<br>
<br>
One day we'll see the real estate regulatory body wake up to this, and<br>
require the availability of NBN to be printed on residential listings.<br>
