Tips for staying in touch in an emergency

 

  • Simple, but most important – make sure your phone is fully charged.
  • Conserve battery power where necessary by closing all unnecessary apps in the background and placing your phone in power saving mode.
  • Charge any mobile battery packs for extra back-up charge.
  • Back-up your data in the cloud so you don’t lose important personal photos and data.
  • Have your emergency phone numbers saved in your phone or written down.
  • Make sure you connect with a family member or friend outside of the impacted area before a weather event hits, including letting them know what your plans are, and your exact location.

Your NBN service should start working without any action. In the event that it doesn’t, a power cycle could help (instructions below).


How to perform a power cycle

  1. Turn off the router and NBN box.
  2. Wait 20 seconds.
  3. Turn it back on.
  4. Wait for devices to reconnect. This can take up to 10-15 minutes.

If your service is still not working, please contact us to help you resolve any issues. We’re here to help.

Device deliveries into affected cyclone areas are temporarily delayed, orders will be dispatched and tracking numbers issued as soon as it’s safe to do so, if you need any further information please reach out to our support team on 1300 808 300.
