  1. Check your router WAN IP address in OPNSense and remember the IP. Do a Google for what's my IP address and check if the IP shown in Google is the same or different to your router WAN IP. If both IPs are different you are on CG-NAT. If both IPs are the same you are not on CG-NAT and there is a problem in OPNSense.
  2. Cox may be using Carrier Grade NAT (CG-NAT) on their network. Ask Cox for a Static IP address and put this Static IP in your router settings. You may have to restart your networking equipment for the IP changes to take affect. This should fix the NAT type D problem. I don't know what is causing the VLAN problem.
  3. Yeah a real shame. Politics should have never been involved.
  4. If only Australia copied our NZ bros.
  5. Yeah most Australian premises are on HFC, FTTN and FTTC. Just over 1 million Australian premises already have FTTP.
  6. Your in the 7% that can get Gigabit HFC and don't qualify for the FTTP fibre on demand model. To have FTTP built to your premises in a few months you can ask for a $330 build quote from the NBN Technology Choice Program team and going by recent build quotes will set you back anywhere from $4000 to $40,000 AUD
  7. Yeah HFC uses the old Telstra coax cable network and FTTC uses fibre with a short copper lead in. FTTC (Cabinet) in the UK and FTTC (Curb) in Australia are not the same.
  8. Summary Today the Australian government has announced that 2 million premises in the FTTN footprint will have access to FTTP with fibre on demand by 2023. Premises in the FTTC and HFC footprint will have access to up to Gigabit speed and premises in the existing FTTP footprint already have access to Gigabit speed. This upgrade is set to create 25,000 new jobs in engineering, construction, transport and project management. My thoughts Good news for those stuck on under performing FTTN connections! What a waste of time and money. If only Australia stuck with the original 93% FTTP plan but hey politics.

  9. My laptop update went smoothly. My PC got stuck on like 98% and failed. On my second attempt it got to like 80%. Windows Update says my system is up to date. I checked Update history and the update 'Requires a restart to finish installing'. I restarted the PC and it didn't update. I tried again today and it updated.
