It sound like this anonymous Opus "modem" – there must be more than one model of Optus modem in the world – may be a modem/router. You said earlier:
I'm connecting to a router..
Is that the same as the "optus modem"? If not you may be in classic "two routers" territory.
I don't understand this bit:

What is this "power board"?
