- If your existing router is compatible and capable of handling your new Fibre speeds, we’ll continue using it.
- If it’s not compatible or likely to slow you down, we’ll provide a Grandstream GWN7052 at no additional cost, while stocks last.

No. Your current NBN connection will stay active while we install and activate your new Fibre service. Once your new Fibre line is live and tested, we’ll let you know it’s safe to cancel your old service. That way, you stay connected the whole time with no downtime.
