After doing some actual research, including reading the manual, this
NetComm NF20MESH doesn't actually support getting Internet via a SIM
card, which is what I need. That's what the TPG thing is using at the

I have tried the NBN web site in three different browsers, and it's "find
out what NBN type is available at your address" fails in all of them.

Time for a chat to AussieBB.
