This is a duplication but my other post is going to the wrong email

 

i have just had FTTP fibre installed in the UK

 

The ISP router is a bit weak. Can I remove that and connect the ONT directly into the main node of the XE75 ? 
 

Do I need to input PPOE details ? Which I have

  @topgazza2 

can't find any guides to do this. I know the Deco setups are easy but if anyone has any idiot proof pointers I would be grateful.

Hi, 

If you used to put PPPOE details on the Technicolor Router., you need to select PPPOE and input the username and password on Deco as well.

For the setup instructions, you could refer to https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/deco-xe75/#video

And Recommended Connection Types for Major ISPs in the UK

Thank you very much and best regards.

Worked a treat

 

Bit of tweaking in a couple of devices to select the new IP and the whole network is humming along at almost top speed. WiFi and LAN. Hard wired the second device upstairs.

 

brilliant product. Thanks for the help smiley
