Received a note in letterbox requesting entry to property to change the modem in the meter box? I didnt know there was a modem? Is this a real thing? What is the modem for and why does it have to be changed? I have not received any communication from AGL directly regarding this.

Hi @Rena,

 

Welcome to Neighbourhood! Some meter providers are upgrading modems on their smart meters from 3G to 4G network. They only send digital notification 5 days prior to let you know when this is due to be done and a reminder 24 hours prior to attending. To check whether you're in their network, I'll send you a private message to obtain your account details.

 

Thanks,
