If you have purchased or received a Modem from Southern Phone, we will have pre-configured your modem for you. 

Unless otherwise advised, you should not need to reconfigure your modem on a regular basis but sometimes, if there is an outage or if the modem has been reset, you may need to complete a reconfiguration. 

If you are configuring or reconfiguring the modem yourself, you will need to enter some personalised settings for your connection. 

Below are the relevant settings that you may need when you reconfigure your Modem.
