Belong not working? Try this
Belong provides fibre internet and mobile service on the Telstra network.
Find out whether Belong knows about an outage at your address
- Sign in to the Belong app on mobile data. Known outages for your address are shown on the first screen.
- Look at the report chart on this page. A sudden jump in the last hour means other Belong customers are affected too.
- Belong runs on the Telstra network, so also check the Telstra page linked under "Check a related service".
Restart your Belong modem the right way
- Unplug the power from your Belong modem. Leave the fibre box on the wall (ONT) plugged in unless its lights are off or red.
- Wait a full 60 seconds so the equipment drops its old connection.
- Plug it back in and give it up to 10 minutes. The internet light should turn solid white, green or blue depending on the model.
- Still nothing? A red or dark light on the fibre box means the line itself is down, and only the provider can fix that.
- Open the Belong app and run its connection test. It can reset the line from the provider's side, which a power cycle cannot.
No signal or no data on Belong
- Switch airplane mode on for 10 seconds and off again. This forces the phone to register with the network from scratch.
- Restart the phone. If it shows "SOS" or "Emergency calls only", the SIM is not being accepted by the network.
- Calls work but data does not? Open Settings, turn mobile data off and on, and check the APN matches the one in Belong's help pages.
- Belong uses Telstra's masts. If Telstra has an outage in your area, Belong will be down as well and resetting your phone will not help.
- Take the SIM out, wipe it and reseat it, or toggle the eSIM off and on in Settings.
Work out whether it is the internet or just your Wi-Fi
- Connect a laptop to the router with a network cable. If the cable works and Wi-Fi does not, the provider is fine and the router or its position is the problem.
- Test more than one device. One failing device points to that device.
- Turn off any VPN and try again.

Belong outage questions
Is Belong down right now?
The status at the top of this page is updated every few minutes from automated checks of Belong's systems and from visitor reports. Our checks reach Belong's website and sign-in servers, so a local line or mast fault in one neighbourhood shows up first in the report chart rather than in the checks.
How do I check for a Belong outage in my area?
Use the Belong app, which shows faults for your own address or postcode. Then compare with the reports on this page to see whether other customers are affected.
Which network does Belong use?
Belong runs on the Telstra network. When Telstra has a fault, Belong customers in the same area lose service as well.
Am I owed compensation for a Belong outage?
Under Australian Consumer Law you can ask for a refund or credit for a service you paid for and did not receive. Raise it with Belong first. If it is not resolved, the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman (TIO) takes complaints for free.
How long do Belong outages usually last?
Most faults are cleared within a few hours. Damage to cables from storms or construction can take a day or more, because a crew has to repair the line by hand.
