Irrelevant to the fact that they must have been able to enter
the usename and password to have used the modem on dodo.

When you click on the blue words Internet Access when you can see the
status after you have clicked on the banner of the card on the main page
labelled Internet Access and have the connection status displayed ?

You sure you are connecting to the TPG service, with the
modem plugged into the correct port on the NBN box ?

If so, try it with the modem not actually connect to anything,
maybe it doesn’t bring that up if you are already connected.
