DrayTek Products And Solutions For NBN
One of the most common enquiries we receive is:
“I'd like a router to connect to the NBN. Which one do you recommend?”
The first problem with that question is that the NBN isn’t just the NBN. It’s actually 7 physically different types of internet services using different technologies grouped under one umbrella called the NBN Multi Technology MIX, or MTM. Each technology uses a different type of cable and broadband Internet technology for at least part of the distance to connect a house to the national broadband network. Even wireless and satellite connections may be the case for many people.
In this video we’ll take a look at the NBN Multi Technology MIX and go through the different routers needed to suit each different type of NBN connection.

Bridging a DrayTek LTE Router to a Broadband Router
Every now and then you may come across a situation where you need to connect a router to the Internet using LTE aka 4G either as a backup for when the main NBN or ADSL connection goes down, or as the main connection because nothing else is available in the area.
In this video we discuss problems with physical connectivity and low signal issues that can come up, and the solution to those problems by using a bridged Draytek Vigor2620L or VigorLTE 200n.
