    Cheers mate, just what I needed to confirm where the nbn comes into my house. Legend!

    So one wire from the dimmer goes into number one terminal off the switch. and that cable from number one from your light switch that goes to your light goes with the other dimmer cable.

    Hi there Mark, How do you clean there connectors? And what can we clean them with? As ours have been on our home for a long time and the signal has deteriorated and we get VERY heavy pixelation on foxtel and VERY slow internet! Thank you heaps! :)

    Thanks for the video. I had wondered why the dimmer wasn't just hard wired into the switch to start with but of course with the modular way switches are now. Solved my questions

    Hey Mark, I have a similar Clipsal dimmer switch with out the switch button but press the dimmer on and off as switch. It has a little illuminated ring around it. How do I stop just the illumination from behind the switch? Cheers mate

  • @maximumnoise78

    I have tried 3 different dimmers including the diginet and a push button one. They all suffer from flicker when the offpeak signal comes through. Its so frustrating.

    Does the switch wire go in with the dimmer in l1?

    • @Brendanlyons12
      @Brendanlyons12 Před 4 lety

      No, so the switch wire that goes up to your light should be put in a connector with one leg from the dimmer. The other dimmer leg goes into your switched active on the switch. Does this answer your question?

    • @gabrieljabbo5403
      @gabrieljabbo5403 Před 3 lety

      Switch wire with one leg of dimmer goes into BP connector, the other dimmer leg goes into terminal 1 in the Switch.

  • @mikee2056
    @mikee2056 Před 5 lety

    Hi Mark, came across this today. What are the specs of the coaxial cable used, is it a specific Branded name cable that is say Quad shielded RG6/U 75ohm for example. I have heard that some NBN installers when they come reject what another installer has put in as it does not meet their NBN standard. I'd just hate to a socket run and find the NBN guy says NO GOOD. What do you use.???

      And if they're not competent enough to figure it out from the wiring diagram in the box, they shouldn't be attempting it at all.

      It’s not that he can’t tell you how to wire it. It’s completely fine for him to tell you, but legally you can’t necessarily do it without a license.

    If thats your example of how you install amps,pack up and leave the job and let someone else do it who knows how to do it right,first of all why display an amp install on a connection that dosent require it,where is your power inserter input,why is there no terminators on un used ports,amps only to be installed if 3 or more internal cables exist,why isnt you single lateral marked appropriately.

    Can Mark Brown also explain what I can do with an address that has only 1 Telstra box but 2 separate NBN installations will be needed? Because the address is divided in two, one is for an accounting practice, and the other a private residence which will need a separate home phoneline (which is going to have to come from an NBN modem)

    • @scottsmad1115
      @scottsmad1115 Před 6 lety

      Yiannis Danatzis it is possible to have two nbn NTD's running off of one cable,all they do is run a second cable to separate room,second wall plate,second modem from ISP,done it many times.
