The Wall: Standard drywall, but no studs are available in the desired mounting area. The Challenge: There are live electrical cables running within the wall behind the mounting spot. Requirements for the Tasker: Detection: You must bring a reliable stud/voltage finder to precisely map the wiring before drilling.

$80

Mascot NSW 2020, Australia

16th Jan 2026

I need to reinstall my NBN FTTP box (NTD) on the wall. The box is already onsite. It just needs to be mounted and connected. No battery backup unit required. No NBN technician required – only physical reinstall. Tools for wall mounting required. Flexible with day and time.
