Without more basic information, I'd guess not.

The non-psychics in your audience might know nothing about your old
ISP/connection or your new ISP/connection. "NBN" is not a useful
description of anything, except, possibly, the country in which you
live.
> I'm not having any luck so far...
Not a useful problem description. It does not say what you did. It
does not say what happened when you did it. As usual, showing actual
actions (commands) with their actual results (error messages, LED
indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague descriptions or
interpretations.
Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual (at least). Read. Beyond the
basic set-up instructions, look for "Reset".

Re: Re-configuring my D6200 Router for my new NBN connection
Try a forum/community search for NBN + D6200 + your ISP.
Some ISPs have especially exotic configurations.
Getting stuff to work on NBN can be a nightmare. The good news is that a lot of people have already grappled with the challenge.
So there's a lot of past experience that you can draw on. Here's an earlier one:
Search - NETGEAR Communities – D6300 NBN
The problem is that NBN comes in many flavours, effectively it just means "Australian Internet".
What is an NBN network and is my NETGEAR DSL modem router compatible? | Answer | NETGEAR Support
Start by checking for your type of NBN.
While Netgear lists all manner of things as being "compatible" with NBN in that article, in reality this often means that the device will work as a router. You have to bypass the modem bit and use something else as a modem. Sometimes it is just the NBN box that your ISP installed.
Here's a good place to start looking for local expertise:
Remember, if you are transferring your modem/router from one type of NBN to another it is a good idea to reset the modem/router to that it forgets in past settings carried over from the old service.
Good luck, you may need it.
