Hello,

Newbie here.

My Telstra smart Modem 3 has just cooked itself.

Before I go back to Telstra and get another one (which I don't like) its signal and sucks and wifi doesn't let certain things connect.

Anyways, I have been given a AX73 5400 router. It lets those items connect such as security cameras and solar inverter.

Let not go in to the why. Telstra modem 2 was fine and Telstra modem 3 trouble.

Anyhow,

Am I better to get my own modem as I have a decent router now?

If so what modem model do you recommend to use with the router the Ax73 Router.

My current connection is NBN FTTN if that matters.

Also will all modems work with the Telstra network or is that also a problem.

Cheers Mark.
