Not necessarily. When I changed from the Billion 7202G which used to periodically see the Mitron MNFMV1 ata which provides a voip service have to be reset, that problem went away.

Unless it does VDSL or you are getting FTTP it seems unlikely. I bought a Billion 7800N a few years ago on the basis that it would be good for the NBN but, since we got FTTN here, it is useless for that. Its a pity as it is a better router than the Huawei crap that TPG supplied.

Its > a pity as it is a better router than the Huawei crap that TPG supplied. Yeah, I've got a 7800NXL and it should be fine with a bridged steaming turd. Remains to be seen what I will do that, like I said I havent researched it at all yet. Certainly wont be going with TPG, they are fucked IMO. I'll have to stay with dodo for at least 9 months and then we will see who is offering what at that time. Unlikely to use TPG tho.

I'd bridge the modem but I'd have to get a separate VOIP box and I can't be bothered to at the moment.
