Want a Dial Tone at All Your Old Phone Sockets with NBN?
We provide a service that wires your NBN router’s VoIP port into your existing cabling, so you can have a dial tone at every socket—just like you did before.
With our service, you can reconnect multiple phone sockets throughout your home, ensuring that all your phones ring simultaneously when someone calls, just like in the days of traditional Telstra copper lines. No more relying on a single phone connected to the NBN modem/router—plug your favourite phone into any socket, and they’ll all work.
Here’s How It Works
When you switch to the NBN, your old phone sockets often stop working the way they used to. Instead, the NBN setup usually allows only one phone to be connected to the modem, leaving your multiple sockets unusable.
With our service, we reconfigure the internal wiring in your home so that all your phone sockets continue to work with your NBN service, just like they did before. Here’s how we do it:
- We wire the VoIP port from your NBN modem/router into your home’s existing phone cabling.
- This reconfigured wiring sends the phone signal to multiple sockets around your home.
- As a result, every phone plugged into a socket will ring simultaneously when you receive a call, just like with the old copper line system.
This way, you don’t have to rely on just one phone connected directly to the NBN modem. Instead, you can keep using multiple phone sockets—perfect for anyone who likes the convenience of phones in different rooms.
The Importance of a Single Socket for the NBN Router
While it’s essential to reconfigure your internal wiring for multiple phone sockets, it’s important to note that only one socket should be directly connected to your NBN router. Connecting more than one socket to the router can cause issues with both your phone and internet services.
We ensure that your NBN router has a dedicated socket, while the rest of the house’s wiring is configured to carry the phone signal to your multiple sockets. This ensures that your NBN service remains stable while all your phones continue to ring as usual.
Why You Shouldn’t DIY
Trying to reconnect multiple phone sockets yourself might seem easy, but the NBN system works differently from the old Telstra copper network. DIY setups can cause issues, especially if you’re using Hybrid Fibre-Coaxial (HFC), and might even damage your modem.
Our certified team ensures that your phone sockets are rewired properly and safely, so you can enjoy reliable service across all your sockets.
