Dodo is making changes to its modem offerings to ensure customers continue to enjoy a smooth and uninterrupted Internet experience - even in the face of global supply chain disruptions.
As part of this update, Dodo is introducing the Kaon DG2144 modem as the new Family Modem. This upgrade comes as a response to supply challenges with the previous TP-Link VX420 and the retirement of the Essential Modem (VX220), which has reached its end of life.
These changes aim to simplify Dodo’s product offerings, ensure ongoing stock availability, and maintain high-quality service across all NBN plans.
