Everything you need to know

Find the answers to frequently asked questions here.

Network Termination Device

NTD stands for Network Termination Device—basically, the box that connects your nbn™ service to the network. It receives the internet signal and sends it on to your modem or router. Without the NTD, you won’t be able to get online! This connection box may look a bit different dependent on the technology available at your address and the device requires power to operate. Please note: This device is separate to your modem. 

Medical disclaimer

Your nbn service will not work during a power outage. This means that you will not be able to make any calls using a service which relies on an active internet service to work (such as VoIP). Medical/security alarms; If you have a Back to Base Security Alarm or Medi-Alert connected to your phone service, it's important you contact your medical or security provider to check if they're compatible with the nbn service and identify what alternatives are available. You'll need to arrange this before we move you to the nbn network, or your alarm may not work. 

Typical Evening Speeds Explained

Typical Evening Speed (TES) is the average speed experienced by a representative group of users between the hours of 7pm and 11pm. It is not a guaranteed minimum speed and past performance is not an indication of expected future speed. The actual speed you will experience depends on many factors, like your access technology, the total demand on the network, local internet traffic, the performance of your wireless network and devices and your physical line condition. For more information see: about nbn™ speeds.

With the nbn network being fully built and operational and the completion of mass disconnection from the legacy copper network, nbn closed the Medical Alarm Register on Friday 30 June 2023: https://www.nbnco.com.au/learn/device-compatibility/medical-alarms nbn services are not available to all areas or premises. nbn, NBN co and other nbn logos and brands are trademarks of nbn co limited and used under licence.

What is CG-NAT?

Carrier-Grade Network Address Translation is a method of sharing a single unique public Internet Protocol (IP) address with multiple customer internet services. This allows internet providers to extend their pool of remaining Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) addresses. 

Why is Exetel changing to CG-NAT?

Globally, the pool of available IPv4 addresses will soon be exhausted, so Exetel has chosen to use CG-NAT as a way to share the limited supply of public IPv4 addresses ahead of full deployment of IPv6. All Exetel One plans come with a dynamic IPv6 address at no extra cost. It’s great for things like remote access, hosting servers, and online gaming.

I am an Exetel customer with old plans, how can I switch to Exetel The One internet plan?

If you’re already an Exetel customer and would like to switch to The One Plan, check your eligibility by entering your address through the website (note: some places may not be eligible due to the environment or technology available in the area).

If you cannot upgrade through the app, contact us through our website to chat with our friendly chatbot.

How does SMS Scam Filter work?

  • How does it work 

    • The new capability is designed to find and block malicious SMS with suspicious links or a telephone number as they travel across our wholesalers’ network, stopping them before they reach your mobile phone. It’s another tool in the fight against SMS scams and extends our wholesalers’ industry-leading  Cleaner Pipes initiative that helps protect our customers from scam phone calls and messages, and computer intrusions. 

      This capability is complex but in simple terms it applies knowledge of what a malicious SMS looks like as it travels across our wholesalers’ network and if it looks suspicious it will block the SMS sent to you by taking a copy of the SMS for our messaging team to review and confirm it is malicious before blocking further malicious messages with the same criteria or near matches. 

      It does this by automatically machine scanning the content of messages travelling on our wholesalers’ network to find suspicious patterns and characteristics, along with other data including time, sender, number of messages sent, and recipient. Suspicious SMS are reviewed [by experts] to identify if the message is a scam (the details of the recipients remain masked). If a scam is identified, the technology will block future messages with the same criteria or near matches. 

      The capability does not offer a fool-proof solution to scams; criminals evolve and find new methods to attempt to scam Australians. For example, if they guess our wholesaler has blocked a message that has a suspicious link, they will try to change the characteristics of the SMS to avoid being blocked. You must continue to be alert to the possibility that when you receive an unexpected message, that it may not be genuine and not click on links. 

  • Will it block a message that I wanted to receive?

    • Our wholesaler cannot guarantee 100% accuracy of the scam filter so there is a very small chance that a legitimate message will not be delivered. During their trial, they have not received any substantiated complaints about legitimate messages being blocked. 

      However, if you are sending legitimate messages and have evidence that they are not being delivered or you have evidence you have had a legitimate message blocked, please contact our business mobile support team and we’ll raise a fault ticket with our wholesale supplier. 

  • Could high-volume messages be mistaken for scams? 

    • Legitimate commercial messaging sources are excluded from blocking. This means that SMS sent on our wholesalers’ network by banks and other businesses, government departments, Emergency Alerts, and applications like MessageBank and system notifications from our wholesalers’ Mobile Network or IT Platforms are not scanned and will not be blocked. 

      Some scammers use our wholesalers’ handset plans to send high volumes of traffic in breach of the Acceptable Use Policy. Messages sent from a service on a mobile plan will be scanned and may be considered potential scam. 

      Our wholesaler has not received any substantiated complaints about legitimate messages being blocked since the Scam SMS service has been launched. 

  • Do I have to do anything to have this feature added to my device? 

    • No, our wholesaler has turned it on across their mobile network and there is no need for you to do anything to receive the benefits of blocking malicious SMS. Our wholesaler won’t send you an email or text to click on a link to opt in or out – if you receive one of these it will be a scam so they should not click on the link. 

  • How will the opt out feature work? 

    • When activated, our wholesaler expects the SMS scam filter will block millions of malicious SMS messages sent to customers on their wholesale network per day. Most customers will enjoy the benefit and not wish to opt out. 

      All Exetel (Telstra) mobile customers have this technology turned on by default. To opt-out, send an SMS to 0438 214 682 with the words FILTER OFF. To opt back in, send an SMS to 0438 214 682 with the words FILTER ON. 

  • How will one of your customers know if the opt-out or opt-in has worked properly? 

    • When you send an SMS to 0438 214 682 you will receive an automated response as follows: 

    • Text message from SMS Scam Filter to respond to FILTER ON from customer 

      The SMS Scam Filter is now activated for your mobile service. This technology is designed to reduce the number of SMS Scam messages delivered to your mobile service. You can opt out of this service by texting FILTER OFF to 0438214682. 

    • Text message from SMS Scam Filter to respond to FILTER OFF from customer 

      The SMS Scam Filter is now OFF for this service. To turn on, text FILTER ON to 0438214682. 

    • Text to respond to FILTER STATUS (whichever is appropriate) 

      The SMS Scam Filter is now OFF for this service. To turn on, text FILTER ON to 0438214682. 

      The SMS Scam Filter is now ON for this mobile service. This technology is designed to reduce the number of SMS Scam messages delivered to your mobile service. You can opt out of this service by texting FILTER OFF to 0438214682. 

    • Text to respond to any other input 

      Sorry, the command you sent wasn’t recognised. Please send a message that contains one of the following commands: 

      FILTER ON - opt in for the Scam Filter 

      FILTER OFF - opt out of the Scam Filter 

      FILTER STATUS - display current applied status of the Scam Filter 

  • It won’t stop all scam messages, correct? If so, how can you report scams that slip through? 

    • To be clear, the scam filter will not be blocking unsolicited or unwanted commercial messages ("spam"). Legitimate businesses are obliged to let you stop their marketing, typically by replying STOP. 

    • The scam filter is designed to block malicious SMS aiming to trick you into calling the scammers or clicking on a malicious link. 

    • The scam filtering platform has a demonstrated history of accurately blocking scam messages for other mobile operators. Messages will only be blocked if verified to be part of a scam campaign, against agreed criteria and with support from our cyber and scam experts. 

  • What human intervention is used, or is it all AI? 

    • The technology requires some degree of manual review by people. A small internal technical team in Australia (at our wholesaler) reviews a sample of suspected scam messages including the hyperlink. 

    • The recipient data is removed to protect privacy before the suspicious content is manually reviewed. If the team identifies a message as scam, they will fine tune the technology to block future messages with the same criteria or near matches unless the recipient has opted out. This manual confirmation helps reduce the risk that legitimate messages are blocked. The platform is also set up so it cannot be used for any other purpose. It is secured to the same high standard as the rest of our wholesalers’ network, with access restricted and logged. 

  • Can the scam filter system be applied to other messaging apps like WhatsApp, or is it just SMS? 

    • The SMS scam filter can only be applied to SMS on services on the Telstra Wholesale mobile network. It will not be applied for "over the top" messaging applications like iMessage, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or end-to-end encrypted services. 

      If you receive a scam using one of those applications, you should report it to the operator of the service. 

  • Will you be blocking unsolicited political messages? 

    • Politicians, charities, and religious organisations are some of the organisations and entities that have exemptions to the Spam Act. They will not be blocked under this platform / the SMS scam filter. 

  • If things aren’t working out: 

    • If you do not want to be involved at any time with this technology, that's okay. 

      Just send a text message with the words "FILTER OFF" to 0438 214 682 to opt- out of the filter setting. 

  • Will my SMS and related metadata stay in Australia? 

    • Yes. Your communications including SMS and attached metadata will remain located in Australia on Telstra Wholesale infrastructure. 

  • Why should I trust Telstra Wholesale? 

    • Telstra Wholesale has a long history of upholding the privacy and security of its customers and a demonstrated track record of transparency in cyber security matters. The SMS scam filter technology is intended to improve customer experience, by implementing robust cyber security measures that aim to reduce the number of scams people are exposed to. 

  • Why did we need to wait for the government to legislate/make changes? 

    • Identifying and blocking malicious SMS on our wholesalers’ network is permitted. Our wholesaler has undertaken a coordinated response with Government, who made new regulations to give industry more clarity and confidence and the authority to detect and block malicious SMS scams, to improve the cyber resilience of their networks. 

  • Is any of the data reported to the Government or regulatory bodies, if so what and to who? 

    • Telstra Wholesale regularly shares information on the latest scam techniques and campaigns to support the government in their efforts to combat scams and cybercrime. Any information they share for this purpose is anonymised and aggregated e.g., sample of scam SMS, or volumes of suspected scam SMS messages observed on our network. No customer information is provided. 

  • Are all telecommunications providers using the same product? If not, why? 

    • The product used for identifying and blocking malicious SMS is available commercially, and there are other similar products in market. Telstra Wholesale are focused on delivering this protection for customers on the Telstra Wholesale network, and the more providers that take a similar approach, the better the outcome for the security and resilience of Australia. 

  • Are any overseas carriers undertaking the same work? Who are they and has Telstra Wholesale consulted on this program? 

    • Overseas carriers are using similar programs with scam and fraud detection capabilities. Telstra Wholesale are aware of carriers in Spain (Telefonica) and the UK (BT and Vodafone) who use such technology to great effect. 

Exceeding your data allowance

If you do happen to exceed your monthly data allowance and your Data Bank is empty, Exetel will automatically block your data usage. If you want your data to keep flowing, you can, or you can recharge (or upgrade) your plan early and get another plan allowance for another 30 days. Recharging when you run out of data can be done manually when you want to recharge or you can set it to be done Automatically to save you the hassle, the choice is yours.
