Hi Rosemary,

Are you on NBN FTTP (Fibre To Premises/Home)?
Are you having a Fibre Phone connection as well?

You DON’T need their Modem!
The Network Termination Device (NTD) - NBN connection Box acts as the Modem.
Basically, the NTD is a modem, so you won’t need a modem anymore! 

However, to share your NBN connection with all the devices around your home 
that use the internet, you will need a Wi-Fi router, also known as a gateway. 
You already have the router -  a Time Capsule.

I have been on NBN for a number years now.
I have a 3TB Time Capsule connected directly from Time Capsule WAN port (Wide 
Area Network) to the UNI-D 1 (Port 1) via  CAT-6 Ethernet cable and my Phone to 
UNI-V 1

My Airport Dual-Band Network settings - Router Mode: DHCP and NAT remain the 
same and all my Mac computers (3), iPad & iPhone connect without any problems.

My NBN Plan with Westnet is:  Residential 8 Plan (100GB + 100GB) + 50/20Mbps 
Turbo pack + Fibre Phone - $94.90 mthly.


Cheers,
Ronni
