4G Home Internet
This support article will give you modem set-up and troubleshooting help.
Modem setup and troubleshooting
To ensure you follow the setup and troubleshooting instructions relevant to your modem, first check whether you have the Vodafone Wi-Fi Hub™ 3.0, the WiFi Cube 3 4G modem or the Vodafone Wi-Fi Hub™ 2.0.
If you have a large or multi-storey home and aren’t getting good coverage in every room, try Mesh WiFi.
To get started with 4G Home Internet, simply follow these quick steps to set up your Wi-Fi Hub:
- Power up your Wi-Fi Hub.
- After one minute, the 'LTE' or '4G' light on the front panel of your WiFi Hub should turn green, orange or red. This means your 4G Back-up feature is now switched on and you can now access 4G Home Internet.
- Connect your compatible Wi-Fi devices to the Wi-Fi Network Name (‘the SSID’) using the Wireless Key (‘the Wi-Fi password). You can find these details on your Wi-Fi Reminder Card or on the label underneath your Wi-Fi Hub. You may also choose to change the default Wi-Fi Network Name and Wireless Key to make them easier to remember.
For more information on modem setup, check out our Quick Start Guide.
If you're experiencing slower than usual connection speeds using your Vodafone Wi-Fi Hub™ 3.0, here are some troubleshooting steps:
- Turn off your modem and leave it off for at least 30 seconds.
- Turn your modem back on and wait a few minutes for the modem lights to stop flashing.
- If your modem's signal strength indicator light is yellow or red, move your modem to another location. These tips will help:
- Place your modem on a table or other surface that keeps it off the floor. A clear, elevated space near a window is ideal.
- Avoid direct sunlight as this can cause your modem to overheat.
- You don’t have to use the same spot as your old modem for other broadband services.
- You can try different spots if your first spot isn’t giving you a strong signal.
- Do not place your modem in a cupboard or very close to electronic devices (TV, stereo, refrigerator, microwave).
- If you're testing your speed on a Wi-Fi device, stand next to your modem and run a speed test to rule out any Wi-Fi signal issues.
Your modem will automatically connect your devices to the best available Wi-Fi network (i.e. 5GHz). Older devices may only be able to connect to the slower 2.4GHz signal.
- Try switching between the 2.4GHz and 5GHz signal. 5GHz will deliver faster speeds but has a shorter range than 2.4GHz. Try using the 2.4GHz signal on some devices and others on the 5GHz signal.
If your speed has improved, or slow speeds occur on Wi-Fi devices but not devices connected via Ethernet cable, see our below section on troubleshooting Wi-Fi signal issues.
- Unplug all other devices connected to your modem's Ethernet ports (except the device you are testing, if applicable).
- Turn off or disconnect all other devices connected to your modem's Wi-Fi (except the device you are testing, if applicable).
- On the device you are testing, close all programs that are using your broadband connection, then run a speed test.
- If your speed has improved on a single device, you may need to reduce the number of devices and/or programs running simultaneously on your home network.
If you need more bandwidth to support more programs and/or devices, you may need to switch to an alternative broadband product. Please call us on 1300 650 410 to discuss.
- Perform a scan on your antivirus/anti-malware software. If any infections are detected, make sure they are quarantined and removed. Please contact your software’s Customer Support if you need assistance.
- Firewalls may affect broadband performance. Temporarily disable any firewalls and run a speed test.
- If you still experience speed issues, please contact us on 1300 650 410 or via Web Chat for further assistance.
If you're experiencing a low Wi-Fi signal on your device when using your Vodafone Wi-Fi Hub™ 3.0, here are some troubleshooting steps:
- Try accessing the internet on a device connected to your modem via Ethernet cable to determine if the issue is with the modem or the Wi-Fi signal. Unplug or turn off all other connected devices while you do this. If there are issues with the internet connection via Ethernet cable our section above on troubleshooting speed issues can help. If the issue is only when using a Wi-Fi connection continue with the steps below.
- If you can access the internet on certain devices but not others, the issue may lie with your device, not your modem.
- A typical indoor Wi-Fi signal has a range of 30 metres, but this is reduced by walls and other obstacles between devices and your modem. When testing your speed on a Wi-Fi device, turn off or disconnect all other connected devices and stand next to your modem before running a speed test to minimise any Wi-Fi signal issues. Move further away from the modem and monitor the Wi-Fi signal strength. If there are some areas of your home with reduced Wi-Fi signal strength consider Mesh WiFi.
- Switch to 5GHz Wi-Fi (the Wi-Fi network with "5G" at the end) for better Wi-Fi speed and to reduce interference from microwaves, baby monitors and other devices which use 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. You'll find the default 5GHz Wi-Fi network name and password printed on your modem's barcode sticker.
- Try switching between the 2.4GHz and 5GHz signal. 5GHz will deliver faster speeds but has a shorter range than 2.4GHz. Try using the 2.4GHz signal on some devices and others on the 5GHz signal.
- Go to the Wi-Fi Hub™ dashboard by typing 192.168.1.1 into your browser, login and click ‘Management’ on the top menu.
- Select ‘Access Control’ and then ‘Passwords’ from the sub-menu to access the passwords screen.
- Enter your current login credentials, followed by your desired username and password.
Click ‘Apply/Save’ to change your password.
To get started with 4G Home Internet, insert the nano SIM (included with your new modem) into the SIM slot on the bottom of the modem.
- The modem should be placed in a clear space near a window without direct sunlight.
- Plug in and turn on the modem (the power button can be found on the bottom of the modem), and once the modem’s Wi-Fi indicator light starts flashing, press the WPS button on the front of the modem to enable device connection.
- If the modem’s signal strength indicator light is yellow or red, either move your modem to another location or follow the ‘Troubleshooting Wi-Fi signal issues’ steps below.
- The modem network name (SSID) and password (WiFi Key) you use to connect your devices should be listed on the bottom of the modem.
For more information on modem setup, check out our Quick Start Guide.

Speed performance guide
Our 4G Home Internet Plan comes with unlimited data at a maximum speed of 20Mbps (download) and 2Mbps (upload). This plan has Typical Evening Speeds of 15Mbps (download) and 2Mbps (upload). These are the typical speeds you may experience between 7pm and 11pm. They are not guaranteed minimum speeds and you may experience lower speeds during this period and at other times.
Factors that may affect speeds
The actual quality of your connection will vary depending on many speed and connectivity factors, including:
- Coverage
Predicted and actual coverage may vary due to the nature of radio based mobile networks and other factors at any specific location, such as distance and line of sight from the network base station, building materials, geographic features (hills, buildings, trees etc.), and weather conditions.
- Location and quality of hardware
Speeds may be impacted by the capability of customer hardware, including Wi-Fi enabled devices and ethernet cables. Speeds may also be impacted by the placement of the modem.
- Wi-Fi signal interference
Wi-Fi signal quality may vary due to the number of devices connected, distance from modem, modem proximity to indoor plants/metal objects, connection to 5GHz/2.4GHz Wi-Fi network, the weather, and any obstacles between devices and modem.
- Network Congestion
During periods of congestion, 5G Home Internet Plans may be subject to data de-prioritisation in order to manage the traffic on the Vodafone Network, and you may experience slower speeds than the speeds experienced using our other 4G services. Fair Use Policy applies.
- Content accessed
There may be particular issues affecting a specific website or online game (e.g. insufficient server capacity).

Our 4G Home Wireless Broadband Plans come with heaps of Max Speed data. Once you’ve used your Max Speed Data, you can continue to use data with no excess charges. After Max Speed data is used, the maximum speed available on this plan (1.5Mbps) is a limit on what speeds you can receive, not a measurement of what you will actually receive at all times. You may experience slower speeds than this during busy periods and at other times. Speeds are variable, and your service may be subject to data de-prioritisation during times of congestion and affected by factors such as number of devices connected to modem and placement of modem in your residence.
With 1.5Mbps you can stream music and standard definition video, make a video call, browse the internet and catch up on social media, however content may be slower to load and is not suitable for high definition video or high speed applications. Here’s a Speed Guide which shows the experience you may have doing different types of activities at a speed of 1.5Mbps or when your data has been de-prioritised. Remember the actual speeds you reach will continually vary depending on many factors, including the number of devices you have connected to your modem, de-prioritisation, network congestion, device capabilities, location, and network coverage.
| Activity | Experience at speeds of 1.5Mbps (or when your data has been de-prioritised) However you may experience speeds slower than 1.5Mbps. |
| Web browsing | Content may be slow to load |
| Music Streaming (eg Spotify) | Streaming music is generally unaffected, some in-app images/artwork may be a little slow to load |
| Social Media (eg Facebook) | Content may be a little slow to load |
| Streaming Standard Definition (SD) video | Video may be slow to start playing and images/artwork may be slow to load. Buffering may occur |
| Streaming High Definition (HD) video | Incompatible and most video services will automatically default to SD quality |
| Downloading apps and files | Apps and files may be slow to download |
Data speeds may also be affected by other factors; including number of devices connected to modem, device connection to modem (via Wi-Fi or Ethernet), and positioning of modem in your residence.

The TP-Link VX420-G2H Modem can operate with a maximum of 128 compatible WiFi enabled devices at any one time.
The Plan uses our 4G Vodafone Network and may be subject to data de-prioritisation. Data de-prioritisation means that during peak periods or congestion some data traffic will receive less priority over other traffic on the Vodafone Network, and we may manage the Vodafone Network by de-prioritising your service. This could mean that during periods of congestion you may experience slower speeds than 15Mbps, and the speeds experienced may be different to the speeds experienced using our other services.
All data for use in Australia within the Vodafone Network coverage area. Service subject to 4G coverage availability. The Plan has a maximum speed of 20Mbps (download) and 2Mbps (upload) and a Typical Evening Speed of 15Mbps (download) and 2Mbps (upload). Typical Evening Speeds are subject to change and measured between 7-11 pm. They are not guaranteed speeds and you may experience slower speeds than this during busy periods and at other times.
Actual speeds you reach will continually vary depending on many factors such as de-prioritisation, network congestion, the number of devices connected and their capabilities, network coverage and the time you are using data. This plan is suitable for browsing, emails, social media, streaming music, SD and HD video. It is not suitable for 4K streaming and may not be suitable for online gaming. It is suitable for 1-3 users. See our Speed Guide for more detail. Fair Use Policy applies. Plan is not eligible for roaming.

The Modem can operate with a maximum of 64 compatible Wi-Fi enabled devices at any one time.
The Plan uses our 4G Vodafone Network and may be subject to data de-prioritisation. Data de-prioritisation means that during peak periods or congestion some data traffic will receive less priority over other traffic on the Vodafone Network, and we may manage the Vodafone Network by de-prioritising both your Max Speed and your data at speeds of up to 1.5Mbps. This could mean that during periods of congestion you may experience slower speeds than 1.5Mbps, and the speeds experienced may be different to the speeds experienced using our other services.
All data for use in Australia within the Vodafone Network coverage area. Service subject to 4G coverage availability. Plan includes a “Max Speed data” allowance (which is data at the fastest speed the Vodafone network can deliver to you, depending on the geography of your area, the building you are in, the placement of your modem and de-prioritisation) which will be used first; thereafter data is available at speeds of up to 1.5Mbps until your next billing month. After Max Speed data is used, the maximum speeds available on this plan (1.5Mbps) is a limit on what speeds you can receive, not a measurement of what you will actually receive at all times. You may experience slower speeds than this during busy periods and at other times.

Your accessory price is spread in equal instalments over the Period (APP Instalments). Your APP Instalments will appear on your monthly bill. Under the APP, you own the accessories; you must pay your APP Instalments at the same time and in the same way as you pay for your Vodafone service even if your APP accessories are lost, damaged or stolen. Your APP spend can range from $30 up to your credit approval limit. If during your APP commitment Period you cancel your APP or postpaid plan, the balance of your APP Instalments is payable. You can pay the remainder of your APP and terminate your APP at any time by contacting us. We will notify you of the amount you need to pay to satisfy the remainder of your APP total amount and will be displayed on you next bill. Once we receive your payment for this amount in cleared funds, your APP will be terminated and you will not be required to pay any further APP Instalments. You can have a max of 5 APP per postpaid plan. Each APP can have up to 10 accessories. Not available online.
