SOS ROC Compatibility for Nighthawk D7800

[kfelsche]

Will my very expensive Nighthawk be receiving a firmware update to ensure compatibility or will it become expensive e-waste?

On 31 March 2022, NBN Co is upgrading NBN FTTB/N services with a requirement for all modems to support a new stability feature called SOS-ROC.

Our records show that you are currently using an NBN modem that may not support SOS-ROC for your NBN service.

Here’s what you need to do:

• We recommend checking your modem manufacturer’s website to see a firmware update is available that will enable your modem to support SOS-ROC. You can find the make and model of your modem on its barcode sticker.

• Alternatively, you may wish to consider purchasing a new modem which supports SOS-ROC. Our NBN Settings support page will help you understand which features your new modem needs to support in order to work with your NBN FTTB/N connection.

In the interim, we will automatically adjust the profile of your NBN service to reduce the impact of the change on 31 March 2022. You won’t need to take any action for this settings adjustment to take effect.
