Help please
I have moved back to NZ and brought my Bipac 7800N with me and want to use it instead of the piece of S%@T telecom NZ supplied.
Telecom NZ will not support other modems being used and I need help how to set the 7800N up, can any one help?
My other option is to purchase in NZ a TP-Link W8980 for NZD$170 or Netgear D6200 NZD$239.
We have a upstairs down stairs house and we stream netflicks etc.. also I work from home and the 7800N was awesome in AUS for this.'

Any help or support much appreciated

Just use the user@xtrabb.co.nz username and abc123 for the password (unless you have ordered a Static IP, in which case you will need a dedicated username and password that they will give you).
