Xeno.. can you please advise if it's ok for me to use the myrepublic 
modem? my concern is that it will 'talk' to MR, and register a 
connection, and I'll be charged. Rob says just to put in my TPG password 
and username, and I can use this modem with my TPG account, and that's 
no prob, I can do that without connecting to the net, but the MR setup 
guide 
<https://mrau-web-02.s3.amazonaws.com/au/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Wi-Fi-Hub-Quick-Start-Guide.pdf> 
step 4, says the modem will setup automatically, once I'm online, so 
would that mean it will register me as a customer of MR?. TIA
