[AusNOG] NBN Approved Devices List

[Brad Evans]

On the subject of the TP-Link W9970, I noticed they disappeared from stock from all our distributors. Some distributors were showing a status of "discontinued", at around the same time there were also suddenly none on eBay (in Australia).  This all seemed to happen in the last week or two. Anyone know what's happening here?

Hammer TPLink tech support about it.
Keep on their case, escalate further and further.
I have a few of a different model, and they tried the same thing with me - that no, it doesn't support non-NAT. Eventually, I got someone in the high-on-up tech department who sent me a couple of commands that need to be done at the CLI (no option through the GUI) - that DID disable NAT.

Unfortunately, I've since lost the email... but I'd say there is some hope, if you can get onto someone sufficiently clued up.
