some connections still require a login that sends the "heartbeat",
most have been migrated to a new system that doesn't.
Most routers support Bigpond and will advertise support for BPA,
Bigpond, or Heartbeat.
Make sure you restart the modem after plugging in the router as I
think it's like Optus where it locks onto the first MAC address it
sees on the LAN side
