Hi Jim
I hope this reply is not too late for you.
I bought a RS600 recently and had the same problem like you: TPG, CM8200B and RS600. I could not make the RS600 get the internet. Finally, I worked it out.
The solution is
In the webpage RS600 setup menu, choose BASIC-Internet then set
Require a login
Internet Port(10 Gbps)
PPPoE
your TPG username (doesn't need email format, just the name)

Then go to the bottom of this page, VLAN ID Configuration
Tap VLAN/Bridge Settings, enable VLAN/Bridge group, pick By VLAN tag group, EDIT AND make the VLAN ID to 2.
Apply the setting and hopefully, the RS600 should work.
